< Matthew 8 >
1 WHEN he had descended from the mountain, great multitudes clave to him.
2 And, behold, a certain leper came (and) worshipped him, and said, My Lord, if thou art willing, thou canst cleanse me.
3 And Jeshu extended his hand, and touched him, and said, I am willing: be clean; and in that very hour his leprosy was cleansed.
4 And Jeshu said to him, See that thou tell no man, but go, show thyself to the priests, and offer the oblation that Musha required for their testimony.
5 Then when Jeshu had entered into Kapharnachum, a certain centurion approached him, and besought of him,
6 saying, My Lord, my child is lying in the house, paralysed and grievously tormented.
7 Jeshu saith to him, I will come and heal him.
8 The centurion answered and saith, My Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst come beneath my roof; only speak in a word, and my child shall be healed.
9 For I also am a man under authority, and under my hand there are soldiers. I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to the other, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth.
10 When Jeshu heard this, he was moved with admiration, and said to those with him, Truly I say to you, that in Isroel I have not found faith like this.
11 But I tell you, That many shall come from the east, and from the west, and shall recline with Abraham, and Is'hok, and Jakub, in the kingdom of the heavens;
12 but the children of the kingdom shall go forth into outer darknesses; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 And Jeshu said unto the centurion, Go; as thou hast believed, it shall be to thee. And his child was healed in that very hour.
14 AND Jeshu came to the house of Shemun, and saw his mother-in-law lying, a fever having seized her.
15 And he touched her with his hand, and the fever left her; and she arose and ministered to them.
16 And when it was evening, they brought before him many demoniacs, and he cast out their devils by a word; and all those who were heavily afflicted he healed.
17 So was fulfilled what had been spoken by the prophet Eshaia, who said, That he should take our griefs, and bear our infirmities.
18 Now when Jeshu saw the great multitudes which encompassed him, he commanded that they should go to the opposite shore.
19 And a certain scribe approached him, and said, Rabi, I will come after thee to the place whither thou goest.
20 Jeshu saith to him, The foxes have their dens, and the fowls of heaven a bower, but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
21 And another from his disciples said to him, My Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.
22 But Jeshu said to him Come after me, and leave the dead ones burying their dead.
23 AND when Jeshu had ascended into the ship, his disciples ascended with him.
24 And, behold, a great commotion was made on the sea, insomuch that the vessel was covered by the waves; but Jeshu himself was asleep.
25 And the disciples approached him, that they might awake him, saying to him, Our Lord, deliver us, we are perishing!
26 And Jeshu said to them, Why are you fearful, you little in faith? Then he arose, and forbade the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 But the men were struck with wonder, saying, What (being) is this, to whom the winds and the sea are obedient?
28 And when Jeshu came to the other side, to the region of the Godroyee, there met him two demoniacs, who came forth from the place of sepulchres, exceedingly malignant, insomuch that no man could pass by that way.
29 And they shouted, saying, What to us, and to thee, Jeshu, son of Aloha? Hast thou come hither before the time, to torment us?
30 Now there was at a distance from them a herd of many swine feeding.
31 Those demons, therefore, supplicated from him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go into the herd of swine.
32 Jeshu saith to them, Go: and immediately they went forth, and entered into the swine; and the whole herd rushed directly over the rock, and, plunging into the sea, perished in the waters.
33 And they who tended them, fled, and went into the city, and showed every thing that was done, and what concerned these demoniacs.
34 the whole city came forth to meet Jeshu himself; and when they beheld him, they besought from him that he would remove from their coasts.
