Matthew 8

¹When he was come downe from the Mountaine, great multitudes folowed him.

²And behold, there came a leper, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, If thou wilt, thou canst make me cleane.

³And Iesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will, bee thou cleane. And immediately his leprosie was cleansed.

⁴And Iesus saith vnto him, See thou tell no man, but go thy way, shew thy selfe to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimonie vnto them.

⁵And when Iesus was entred into Capernaum, there came vnto him a Centurion, beseeching him,

⁶And saying, Lord, my seruant lieth at home sicke of the palsie, grieuously tormented.

⁷And Iesus saith vnto him, I will come, and heale him.

⁸The Centurion answered, and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come vnder my roofe: but speake the word onely, and my seruant shalbe healed.

⁹For I am a man vnder authority, hauing souldiers vnder me: and I say to this man, Goe, and he goeth: and to another, Come, and he commeth: and to my seruant, Doe this, and he doth it.

¹⁰When Iesus heard it, he marueiled, and said to them that followed, Uerely, I say vnto you, I haue not found so great faith, no not in Israel.

¹¹And I say vnto you, that many shall come from the East and West, and shal sit downe with Abraham, and Isaac, & Iacob, in the kingdome of heauen:

¹²But the children of the kingdome shall be cast out into outer darkenesse: there shalbe weeping and gnashing of teeth.

¹³And Iesus said vnto the Centurion, Go thy way, and as thou hast beleeued, so be it done vnto thee. And his seruant was healed in the self same houre.

¹⁴And when Iesus was come into Peters house, hee saw his wiues mother laid, and sicke of a feuer:

¹⁵And he touched her hand, and the feuer left her: and she arose, and ministred vnto them.

¹⁶When the Euen was come, they brought vnto him many that were possessed with deuils: and hee cast out the spirits with his worde, and healed all that were sicke,

¹⁷That it might be fulfilled which which was spoken by Esaias the Prophet, saying, Himselfe tooke our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

¹⁸Now when Iesus saw great multitudes about him, hee gaue commaundement to depart vnto the other side.

¹⁹And a certaine Scribe came, and said vnto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoeuer thou goest.

²⁰And Iesus saith vnto him, The Foxes haue holes, and the birds of the ayre haue nests: but the sonne of man hath not where to lay his head.

²¹And another of his Disciples said vnto him, Lord, suffer me first to goe, and bury my father.

²²But Iesus said vnto him, Follow me, & let the dead, bury their dead.

²³And when he was entred into a ship, his Disciples followed him.

²⁴And behold, there arose a great tempest in the Sea, insomuch that the ship was couered with the waues: but he was asleepe.

²⁵And his Disciples came to him, and awoke, saying, Lord, saue vs: we perish.

²⁶And he saith vnto them, Why are yee fearefull, O yee of litle faith? Then hee arose, and rebuked the winds and the Sea, and there was a great calme.

²⁷But the men marueiled, saying, What maner of man is this, that euen the winds and the Sea obey him?

²⁸And when hee was come to the other side, into the countrey of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with deuils, comming out of the tombes, exceeding fierce, so that no man might passe by that way.

²⁹And behold, they cryed out, saying, What haue we to doe with thee, Iesus thou sonne of God? Art thou come hither to torment vs befor ye time?

³⁰And there was a good way off from them, an heard of many swine, feeding.

³¹So the deuils besought him, saying, If thou cast vs out, suffer vs to goe away into the herd of swine.

³²And he said vnto them, Goe. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and behold, the whole herd of swine ranne violently downe a steepe place into the Sea, and perished in the waters.

³³And they that kept them, fled, and went their waies into the citie, and told euery thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the deuils.

³⁴And behold, the whole citie came out to meete Iesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that hee would depart out of their coasts.
