Matthew 8

1 When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him.

2 And behold, there came a leper and worshiped 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 said unto him, "See thou tell no man; but go thy way, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded for a testimony unto them."

5 And when Jesus had entered into Capernaum, there came unto Him a centurion, beseeching Him

6 and saying, "Lord, my servant lieth at home sick with the palsy and grievously tormented."

7 And Jesus said 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 marveled and said to those who followed, "Verily I say unto you, I have not found such 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 that selfsame hour.

14 And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his wife's mother lying and sick with a fever.

15 And He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she arose and ministered unto them.

16 When the evening had come, they brought unto Him many who were possessed with devils, and He cast out the spirits with His word and healed all who were sick,

17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, who said, "He Himself took our infirmities and bore 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 said unto him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man hath nowhere 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 had entered into a boat, His disciples followed Him.

24 And behold, there arose a great tempest on the sea, insomuch that the boat 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 said 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 marveled, saying, "What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?"

28 And when He had come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met Him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly 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 Now there was a good way off from them a 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 to them, "Go." And when they had 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 those who kept them fled and went their ways into the city, and told everything and what had befallen the ones possessed with 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 borders.

Matthew 9

1 And He entered into a boat, and passed over and came into His own city.

2 And behold, they brought to Him a man sick with the palsy, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said unto the one sick with the palsy, "Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee."

3 And behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, "This man blasphemeth."

4 And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why think ye evil in your hearts?

5 For which is easier: to say, `Thy sins be forgiven thee,' or to say, `Arise and walk'?

6 But that ye may know that the Son of Man hath power on earth to forgive sins,"-- (then said He to the one sick with palsy) "Arise, take up thy bed and go unto thine house."

7 And he arose and departed to his house.

8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power unto men.

9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, He saw a man named Matthew, sitting in the customhouse. And He said unto him, "Follow Me." And he arose and followed Him.

10 And it came to pass as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples.

11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto His disciples, "Why eateth your master with publicans and sinners?"

12 But when Jesus heard that, He said unto them, "They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

13 But go ye and learn what this meaneth: `I will have mercy and not sacrifice.' For I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

14 Then the disciples of John came to Him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Thy disciples fast not?"

15 And Jesus said unto them, "Can the attendants of the bridechamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

16 "No man putteth a piece of new cloth upon an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

17 Neither do men put new wine into old wineskins, else the wineskins burst and the wine runneth out and the skins perish. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved."

18 While He spoke these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler and worshiped Him, saying, "My daughter is even now dead, but come and lay Thy hand upon her, and she shall live."

19 And Jesus arose and followed him, and so did His disciples.

20 And behold, a woman who was diseased with an issue of blood for twelve years came up behind Him and touched the hem of His garment;

21 for she said to herself, "If I may but touch His garment, I shall be whole."

22 But Jesus turned about, and when He saw her, He said, "Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole." And the woman was made whole from that hour.

23 And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

24 He said unto them, "Give way, for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth." And they laughed Him to scorn.

25 But when the people were put outside, He went in and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

26 And the fame thereof went abroad throughout all the land.

27 And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed Him, crying and saying, "Thou Son of David, have mercy on us!"

28 And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him, and Jesus said unto them, "Believe ye that I am able to do this?" They said unto Him, "Yea, Lord."

29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith, be it unto you."

30 And their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, "See that no man know it."

31 But they, when they had departed, spread abroad His fame in all that country.

32 As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a man, dumb and possessed with a devil.

33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spoke; and the multitudes marveled, saying, "It was never so seen in Israel."

34 But the Pharisees said, "He casteth out the devils through the prince of the devils."

35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

36 But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were faint and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

37 Then said He unto His disciples, "The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few.

38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth laborers into His harvest."
