Matthew 8:1-17

Christ cleanses the leper, heals the centurion’s servant, heals many other diseases, helps Peter’s mother-in-law, stills the sea and the wind, and drives the devils out of the possessed man into the swine.

When Jesus came down from the mountain, crowds of people followed him. And lo, a leper came and worshipped him, saying, Master, if you are willing, you can make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be clean! And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. And Jesus said to him, See that you tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, in witness to them.

When Jesus had entered into Capernaum, there came to him a certain centurion, who besought him, saying, Master, my servant lies sick at home, paralyzed, and is grievously pained. And Jesus said to him, I will come and heal him. The centurion answered and said, Sir, I am not worthy that you should come under my roof. But speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I also myself am a man subject to the authority of another, and have soldiers under me. And I say to one, Go! and he goes, and to another, Come! and he comes, and to my servant, Do this! and he does it.

10 When Jesus heard that, he marvelled, and said to the people who followed him, Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel. 11 I say therefore to you that many will come from the east and west, and will rest with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, 12 but the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, Go your way, and as you believe, so be it unto you. And his servant was healed that very same hour.

14 And then Jesus went to Peter’s house, and saw his wife’s mother lying sick of a fever, 15 and touched her hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and ministered to them.

16 When the evening was come, people brought to him many who were possessed with devils. And he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, 17 to fulfil that which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, He took on him our infirmities, and bore our sicknesses.
