Matthew 8:14-17

Healing of many people

14 Jesus went home with Peter and saw Peter's mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever.

15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her. Then she got up and served them.

16 That evening people brought to Jesus many who were demon-possessed. He threw the spirits out with just a word. He healed everyone who was sick.

17 This happened so that what Isaiah the prophet said would be fulfilled: He is the one who took our illnesses and carried away our diseases.
