Matthew 8:1-7

1 Upon descending from the hill country He was followed by immense crowds.

2 And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, "Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me."

3 So Jesus put out His hand and touched him, and said, "I am willing: be cleansed." Instantly he was cleansed from his leprosy;

4 and Jesus said to him, "Be careful to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses appointed as evidence for them."

5 After His entry into Capernaum a Captain came to Him, and entreated Him.

6 "Sir," he said, "my servant at home is lying ill with paralysis, and is suffering great pain."

7 "I will come and cure him," said Jesus.
