Matthew 8

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 When he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

2 Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."

3 Yeshua stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, "I want to. Be made clean." Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

4 Yeshua said to him, "See that you tell nobody, but go, show yourself to the Kohen, and offer the gift that Moshe commanded, as a testimony to them."

5 When he came into Kafar-Nachum, a centurion came to him, asking him,

6 and saying, "Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented."

7 Yeshua said to him, "I will come and heal him."

8 The centurion answered, "Lord, I'm not worthy for you to come under my roof. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

9 For I am also a man under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."

10 When Yeshua heard it, he marveled, and said to those who followed, "Most assuredly I tell you, I haven't found so great a faith, not even in Yisra'el.

11 I tell you that many will come from the east and the west, and will sit down with Avraham, Yitzchak, and Ya`akov, in the Kingdom of Heaven,

12 but the sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth."

13 Yeshua said to the centurion, "Go your way. Let it be done for you as you as you have believed." His servant was healed in that hour.

14 When Yeshua came into Kefa's house, he saw his wife's mother lying sick of a fever.

15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up and served him.

16 When evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick;

17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Yesha`yahu the prophet, saying: "He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases."

18 Now when Yeshua saw great multitudes about him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.

19 A Sofer came, and said to him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."

20 Yeshua said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."

21 Another of his talmidim said to him, "Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father."

22 But Yeshua said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."

23 When he got into a boat, his talmidim followed him.

24 Behold, a great tempest arose in the sea, so much that the boat was covered with the waves, but he was asleep.

25 They came to him, and woke him up, saying, "Save us, Lord! We are dying!"

26 He said to them, "Why are you fearful, oh you of little faith?" Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.

27 The men marveled, saying, "What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

28 When he came to the other side, into the country of the Gadarenes, two people possessed by demons met him there, coming forth out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no man could pass by that way.

29 Behold, they cried out, saying, "What do we have to do with you, Yeshua, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

30 Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.

31 The demons begged him, saying, "If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of pigs."

32 He said to them, "Go!" They came out, and went into the herd of pigs: and behold, the whole herd of pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea, and died in the water.

33 Those who fed them fled, and went away into the city, and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.

34 Behold, all the city came out to meet Yeshua. When they saw him, they begged that he would depart from their borders.

The Message Bible MSG

1 Jesus came down the mountain with the cheers of the crowd still ringing in his ears.

2 Then a leper appeared and went to his knees before Jesus, praying, "Master, if you want to, you can heal my body."

3 Jesus reached out and touched him, saying, "I want to. Be clean." Then and there, all signs of the leprosy were gone.

4 Jesus said, "Don't talk about this all over town. Just quietly present your healed body to the priest, along with the appropriate expressions of thanks to God. Your cleansed and grateful life, not your words, will bear witness to what I have done."

5 As Jesus entered the village of Capernaum, a Roman captain came up in a panic and said,

6 "Master, my servant is sick. He can't walk. He's in terrible pain."

7 Jesus said, "I'll come and heal him."

8 "Oh, no," said the captain. "I don't want to put you to all that trouble. Just give the order and my servant will be fine.

9 I'm a man who takes orders and gives orders. I tell one soldier, 'Go,' and he goes; to another, 'Come,' and he comes; to my slave, 'Do this,' and he does it."

10 Taken aback, Jesus said, "I've yet to come across this kind of simple trust in Israel, the very people who are supposed to know all about God and how he works.

11 This man is the vanguard of many outsiders who will soon be coming from all directions - streaming in from the east, pouring in from the west, sitting down at God's kingdom banquet alongside Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

12 Then those who grew up 'in the faith' but had no faith will find themselves out in the cold, outsiders to grace and wondering what happened."

13 Then Jesus turned to the captain and said, "Go. What you believed could happen has happened." At that moment his servant became well.

14 By this time they were in front of Peter's house. On entering, Jesus found Peter's mother-in-law sick in bed, burning up with fever.

15 He touched her hand and the fever was gone. No sooner was she up on her feet than she was fixing dinner for him.

16 That evening a lot of demon-afflicted people were brought to him. He relieved the inwardly tormented. He cured the bodily ill.

17 He fulfilled Isaiah's well-known sermon: He took our illnesses, He carried our diseases.

18 When Jesus saw that a curious crowd was growing by the minute, he told his disciples to get him out of there to the other side of the lake.

19 As they left, a religion scholar asked if he could go along. "I'll go with you, wherever," he said.

20 Jesus was curt: "Are you ready to rough it? We're not staying in the best inns, you know."

21 Another follower said, "Master, excuse me for a couple of days, please. I have my father's funeral to take care of."

22 Jesus refused. "First things first. Your business is life, not death. Follow me. Pursue life."

23 Then he got in the boat, his disciples with him.

24 The next thing they knew, they were in a severe storm. Waves were crashing into the boat - and he was sound asleep!

25 They roused him, pleading, "Master, save us! We're going down!"

26 Jesus reprimanded them. "Why are you such cowards, such faint-hearts?" Then he stood up and told the wind to be silent, the sea to quiet down: "Silence!" The sea became smooth as glass.

27 The men rubbed their eyes, astonished. "What's going on here? Wind and sea come to heel at his command!"

28 They landed in the country of the Gadarenes and were met by two madmen, victims of demons, coming out of the cemetery. The men had terrorized the region for so long that no one considered it safe to walk down that stretch of road anymore.

29 Seeing Jesus, the madmen screamed out, "What business do you have giving us a hard time? You're the Son of God! You weren't supposed to show up here yet!"

30 Off in the distance a herd of pigs was browsing and rooting.

31 The evil spirits begged Jesus, "If you kick us out of these men, let us live in the pigs."

32 Jesus said, "Go ahead, but get out of here!" Crazed, the pigs stampeded over a cliff into the sea and drowned.

33 Scared to death, the swineherds bolted. They told everyone back in town what had happened to the madmen and the pigs.

34 Those who heard about it were angry about the drowned pigs. A mob formed and demanded that Jesus get out and not come back.
