Matthew 8:13-23

13 And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; it shall be done for you ¹as you have believed." And the servant was healed that very moment.

14 ²When 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 ³who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and ⁴healed all who were ill *.

17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: "⁵HE HIMSELF TOOK OUR INFIRMITIES AND CARRIED AWAY OUR DISEASES."

18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, ⁶He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea.

19 ⁷Then 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 ⁸the 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."

22 But Jesus said to him, "⁹Follow Me, and allow the dead to bury their own dead."

23 ¹⁰When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him.
