Bible, King James Version
Matthew
Matt.8
[1] When he was come down from the mountain, great
multitudes followed him.
[2] And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him,
saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
[3] And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying,
I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was
cleansed.
[4] And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go
thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that
Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
[5] And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came
unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
[6] And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the
palsy, grievously tormented.
[7] And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal
him.
[8] The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy
that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only,
and my servant shall be healed.
[9] For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under
me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another,
Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth
it.
[10] When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them
that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great
faith, no, not in Israel.
[11] And I say unto you, That many shall come from the
east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and
Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
[12] But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out
into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of
teeth.
[13] And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as
thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was
healed in the selfsame hour.
[14] And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw
his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
[15] And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and
she arose, and ministered unto them.
[16] When the even was come, they brought unto him many
that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with
his word, and healed all that were sick:
[17] That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias
the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our
sicknesses.
[18] Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he
gave commandment to depart unto the other side.
[19] And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master,
I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
[20] And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and
the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not
where to lay his head.
[21] And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord,
suffer me first to go and bury my father.
[22] But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead
bury their dead.
[23] And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples
followed him.
[24] And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea,
insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was
asleep.
[25] And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying,
Lord, save us: we perish.
[26] And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of
little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea;
and there was a great calm.
[27] But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is
this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
[28] And when he was come to the other side into the
country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with
devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man
might pass by that way.
[29] And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to
do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to
torment us before the time?
[30] And there was a good way off from them an herd of
many swine feeding.
[31] So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us
out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.
[32] And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come
out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole
herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and
perished in the waters.
[33] And they that kept them fled, and went their ways
into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the
possessed of the devils.
[34] And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus:
and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out
of their coasts.
