Matthew 8

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.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 cum autem descendisset de monte secutae sunt eum turbae multae

2 et ecce leprosus veniens adorabat eum dicens Domine si vis potes me mundare

3 et extendens manum tetigit eum Iesus dicens volo mundare et confestim mundata est lepra eius

4 et ait illi Iesus vide nemini dixeris sed vade ostende te sacerdoti et offer munus quod praecepit Moses in testimonium illis

5 cum autem introisset Capharnaum accessit ad eum centurio rogans eum

6 et dicens Domine puer meus iacet in domo paralyticus et male torquetur

7 et ait illi Iesus ego veniam et curabo eum

8 et respondens centurio ait Domine non sum dignus ut intres sub tectum meum sed tantum dic verbo et sanabitur puer meus

9 nam et ego homo sum sub potestate habens sub me milites et dico huic vade et vadit et alio veni et venit et servo meo fac hoc et facit

10 audiens autem Iesus miratus est et sequentibus se dixit amen dico vobis non inveni tantam fidem in Israhel

11 dico autem vobis quod multi ab oriente et occidente venient et recumbent cum Abraham et Isaac et Iacob in regno caelorum

12 filii autem regni eicientur in tenebras exteriores ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium

13 et dixit Iesus centurioni vade et sicut credidisti fiat tibi et sanatus est puer in hora illa

14 et cum venisset Iesus in domum Petri vidit socrum eius iacentem et febricitantem

15 et tetigit manum eius et dimisit eam febris et surrexit et ministrabat eis

16 vespere autem facto obtulerunt ei multos daemonia habentes et eiciebat spiritus verbo et omnes male habentes curavit

17 ut adimpleretur quod dictum est per Esaiam prophetam dicentem ipse infirmitates nostras accepit et aegrotationes portavit

18 videns autem Iesus turbas multas circum se iussit ire trans fretum

19 et accedens unus scriba ait illi magister sequar te quocumque ieris

20 et dicit ei Iesus vulpes foveas habent et volucres caeli tabernacula Filius autem hominis non habet ubi caput reclinet

21 alius autem de discipulis eius ait illi Domine permitte me primum ire et sepelire patrem meum

22 Iesus autem ait illi sequere me et dimitte mortuos sepelire mortuos suos

23 et ascendente eo in navicula secuti sunt eum discipuli eius

24 et ecce motus magnus factus est in mari ita ut navicula operiretur fluctibus ipse vero dormiebat

25 et accesserunt et suscitaverunt eum dicentes Domine salva nos perimus

26 et dicit eis quid timidi estis modicae fidei tunc surgens imperavit ventis et mari et facta est tranquillitas magna

27 porro homines mirati sunt dicentes qualis est hic quia et venti et mare oboediunt ei

28 et cum venisset trans fretum in regionem Gerasenorum occurrerunt ei duo habentes daemonia de monumentis exeuntes saevi nimis ita ut nemo posset transire per viam illam

29 et ecce clamaverunt dicentes quid nobis et tibi Fili Dei venisti huc ante tempus torquere nos

30 erat autem non longe ab illis grex porcorum multorum pascens

31 daemones autem rogabant eum dicentes si eicis nos mitte nos in gregem porcorum

32 et ait illis ite at illi exeuntes abierunt in porcos et ecce impetu abiit totus grex per praeceps in mare et mortui sunt in aquis

33 pastores autem fugerunt et venientes in civitatem nuntiaverunt omnia et de his qui daemonia habuerant

34 et ecce tota civitas exiit obviam Iesu et viso eo rogabant ut transiret a finibus eorum
