Matthew 8:11-21

11 "I say to you that many ¹will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven;

12 but ²the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into ³the outer darkness; in that place ⁴there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

13 And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; it shall be done for you ⁵as you have believed." And the servant was healed that very moment.

14 ⁶When Jesus came into Peter's home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever.

15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and waited on Him.

16 When evening came, they brought to Him many ⁷who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and ⁸healed all who were ill *.

17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: "⁹HE HIMSELF TOOK OUR INFIRMITIES AND CARRIED AWAY OUR DISEASES."

18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, ¹⁰He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea.

19 ¹¹Then a scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow You wherever * You go."

20 Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests, but ¹²the Son of Man has nowhere * to lay His head."

21 Another of the disciples said to Him, "Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father."
