And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith, I will; be thou cleansed. And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.

But he went away, and began to publish it constantly, and to spread the matter abroad, so that Jesus could no more enter a city openly, but was without in desert places; and they came to him from every quarter.

And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him; for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us. And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof; on which account I did not think myself worthy to come to thee; but command with a word, and let my servant be healed. For even I am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. And Jesus hearing this, wondered at him; and turning round said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found such faith. And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.

And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. So the father knew that it was in the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is living. And he himself believed, and his whole house.

But he saith to them, It is I, be not afraid. Then they were willing to receive him into the boat; and immediately the boat was at the land whither they were going. The day following, the multitude which stood on the other side of the lake having seen that there was no other boat there but one, and that Jesus did not go with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples went away alone, (but there came other boats from Tiberias near the place where they ate the bread, when the Lord had given thanks;) when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus was not there nor his disciples, they went on board the boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
