Matthew 8:1-34 NASB

[1] When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him. [2] And a man with leprosy came to Him and bowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” [3] Jesus reached out with His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. [4] And Jesus said to him, “See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.” [5] And when Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, begging Him, [6] and saying, “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, terribly tormented.” [7] Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” [8] But the centurion replied, “Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed. [9] For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” [10] Now when Jesus heard this, He was amazed and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel. [11] And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; [12] but the sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” [13] And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed at that very moment. [14] When Jesus came into Peter’s home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever. [15] And He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and waited on Him. [16] Now when evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were ill. [17] This happened so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled: “He Himself took our illnesses and carried away our diseases.” [18] Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea. [19] Then a scribe came and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.” [20] And Jesus 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] And another of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.” [22] But Jesus said to him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.” [23] When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. [24] And behold, a violent storm developed on the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. [25] And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing!” [26] He said to them, “Why are you afraid, you men of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm. [27] The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?” [28] And when He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men confronted Him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so extremely violent that no one could pass by that way. [29] And they cried out, saying, “What business do You have with us, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?” [30] Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding at a distance from them. [31] And the demons begged Him, saying, “If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of pigs.” [32] And He said to them, “Go!” And they came out and went into the pigs; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters. [33] And the herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. [34] And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they pleaded with Him to leave their region.
