3So Jesus reached out his hand, touched him, and said, "I do want to. Be clean!" And instantly his leprosy was made clean. 3Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4Then Jesus told him, "See to it that you don't speak to anyone. Instead, go and show yourself to the priest, and then offer the sacrifice that Moses commanded as proof to the authorities." 4Then Jesus instructed him, “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift prescribed by Moses, as a testimony to them.”

7Jesus told him, "I will come and heal him."7“I will go and heal him,” Jesus replied.
8The centurion replied, "Sir, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed, 8The centurion answered, “Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
9because I, too, am a man under authority and I have soldiers under me. I say to one of them 'Go' and he goes, to another 'Come' and he comes, and to my servant 'Do this' and he does it."9For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”
10When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and told those who were following him, "I tell all of you with certainty, not even in Israel have I found this kind of faith! 10When Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those following Him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.
11I tell all of you, many will come from east and west and will feast with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom from heaven. 11I say to you that many will come from the east and the west to share the banquet with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
12But the unfaithful heirs of that kingdom will be thrown into the darkness outside. In that place there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth." 12But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13"Go," Jesus told the centurion, "and it will be done for you, just as you have believed." And his servant was healed that very hour.13Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! As you have believed, so will it be done for you.” And his servant was healed at that very hour.

25They went to him and woke him up. "Lord!" they cried, "Save us! We're going to die!"25The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
26He asked them, "Why are you afraid, you who have little faith?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.26“You of little faith,” Jesus replied, “why are you so afraid?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was perfectly calm.
27The men were amazed. "What kind of man is this?" they asked. "Even the winds and the sea obey him!"27The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey Him!”

30Now a large herd of pigs was grazing some distance away from them. 30In the distance a large herd of pigs was feeding.
31So the demons began to plead with Jesus, saying, "If you drive us out, send us into that herd of pigs."31So the demons begged Jesus, “If You drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”
32He told them, "Go," and they came out and went into the pigs. Suddenly, the whole herd rushed down the cliff into the sea and drowned in the water.32“Go!” He told them. So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and died in the waters.
33Now when those who had been taking care of the pigs ran away, they came into the city and reported everything, especially what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 33Those tending the pigs ran off into the town and reported all this, including the account of the demon-possessed men.
34Then the whole city went out to meet Jesus, and as soon as they saw him, they begged him to leave their region.34Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him to leave their region.
