1 En toe Hy van die berg afkom, het groot menigtes Hom gevolg;
2 en daar het 'n melaatse man gekom en voor Hom neergeval en gesê: Here, as U wil, kan U my reinig.
3 Daarop steek Jesus die hand uit en raak hom aan en sê: Ek wil; word gereinig! En dadelik is hy van sy melaatsheid gereinig.
4 En Jesus sê vir hom: Pas op dat jy dit aan niemand vertel nie, maar gaan vertoon jou aan die priester en offer die gawe wat Moses voorgeskrywe het, tot 'n getuienis vir hulle.
5 En nadat Jesus in Kapernaum ingegaan het, kom daar 'n hoofman oor honderd na Hom toe en smeek Hom
6 en sê: Here, my kneg lê tuis verlam en hy ly hewige pyne.
7 Daarop sê Jesus vir hom: Ek sal kom en hom gesond maak.
8 En die hoofman oor honderd antwoord en sê: Here, ek is nie werd dat U onder my dak inkom nie; maar spreek net 'n woord, en my kneg sal gesond word.
9 Want ek is ook 'n man onder gesag, en ek het soldate onder my. En vir hierdie een sê ek: Gaan! en hy gaan; en vir 'n ander een: Kom! en hy kom; en vir my dienskneg: Doen dit! en hy doen dit.
10 Toe Jesus dit hoor, het Hy Hom verwonder en aan sy volgelinge gesê: Voorwaar Ek sê vir julle, selfs in Israel het Ek so 'n groot geloof nie gevind nie.
11 Maar Ek sê vir julle dat baie sal kom van ooste en weste en saam met Abraham en Isak en Jakob sal aansit in die koninkryk van die hemele.
12 Maar die kinders van die koninkryk sal uitgedryf word in die buitenste duisternis. Daar sal geween wees en gekners van die tande.
13 Toe sê Jesus vir die hoofman oor honderd: Gaan, en laat dit vir jou wees soos jy geglo het. En sy kneg het gesond geword in daardie uur.
14 En toe Jesus in die huis van Petrus kom, sien Hy sy skoonmoeder siek lê aan die koors.
15 En Hy het haar hand aangeraak, en die koors het haar verlaat, en sy het opgestaan en hulle bedien.
16 En toe dit aand geword het, het hulle baie na Hom gebring, wat van duiwels besete was; en Hy het die geeste met 'n woord uitgedrywe; en almal wat ongesteld was, het Hy gesond gemaak,
17 sodat vervul sou word wat gespreek is deur Jesaja, die profeet, toe hy gesê het: Hy het ons krankhede op Hom geneem en ons siektes gedra.
18 En toe Jesus groot menigtes rondom Hom sien, het Hy bevel gegee om te vertrek na die oorkant.
19 En 'n sekere skrifgeleerde het gekom en vir Hom gesê: Meester, ek sal U volg waar U ook al mag gaan.
20 En Jesus sê vir hom: Die jakkalse het gate en die voëls van die hemel neste, maar die Seun van die mens het geen plek waar Hy sy hoof kan neerlê nie.
21 En 'n ander een van sy dissipels het vir Hom gesê: Here, laat my toe om eers te gaan en my vader te begrawe.
22 Maar Jesus sê vir hom: Volg My, en laat die dooies hul eie dooies begrawe.
23 En toe Hy in die skuit klim, het sy dissipels Hom gevolg.
24 En daar het 'n groot storm op die see gekom, sodat die skuit toe was onder die golwe; maar Hy was aan die slaap.
25 Daarop kom sy dissipels en maak Hom wakker en sê: Here, red ons, ons vergaan!
26 En Hy sê vir hulle: Waarom is julle bang, kleingelowiges? Toe staan Hy op en bestraf die winde en die see, en daar het 'n groot stilte gekom.
27 En die manne het hulle verwonder en gesê: Wat vir 'n mens is Hy, dat selfs die winde en die see Hom gehoorsaam is?
28 En toe Hy aan die oorkant kom, in die land van die Gadareners, het twee duiwelbesetenes Hom ontmoet, wat uit die grafte uitgekom het en baie kwaai was, sodat niemand met daardie pad kon verbygaan nie.
29 En meteens skreeu hulle en sê: Wat het ons met U te doen, Jesus, Seun van God? Het U hier gekom om ons voor die tyd te pynig?
30 En ver van hulle af het 'n groot trop varke gewei.
31 En die duiwels het Hom gesmeek en gesê: As U ons uitdryf, laat ons toe om in die trop varke te vaar.
32 En Hy sê vir hulle: Gaan! Toe gaan hulle uit en vaar in die trop varke in; en daar storm die hele trop varke van die krans af die see in en kom in die water om.
33 En die wagters het gevlug; en toe hulle in die stad kom, het hulle alles vertel, ook wat met die besetenes gebeur het.
34 En kyk, die hele stad het uitgekom, Jesus tegemoet; en toe hulle Hom sien, smeek hulle dat Hy uit hulle gebied moet weggaan.
1 And when he had come down from the mountain, great numbers of people came after him.
2 And a leper came and gave him worship, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.
3 And he put his hand on him, saying, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away he was made clean.
4 And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.
5 And when Jesus was come into Capernaum, a certain captain came to him with a request,
6 Saying, Lord, my servant is ill in bed at the house, with no power in his body, and in great pain.
7 And he said to him, I will come and make him well.
8 And the captain in answer said, Lord, I am not good enough for you to come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be made well.
9 Because I myself am a man under authority, having under me fighting men; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
10 And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.
11 And I say to you that numbers will come from the east and the west, and will take their seats with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven:
12 But the sons of the kingdom will be put out into the dark, and there will be weeping and cries of pain.
13 And Jesus said to the captain, Go in peace; as your faith is, so let it be done to you. And the servant was made well in that hour.
14 And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother in bed, very ill.
15 And he put his hand on hers and the disease went from her, and she got up and took care of his needs.
16 And in the evening, they took to him a number of people who had evil spirits; and he sent the spirits out of them with a word, and made well all who were ill;
17 So that the word of Isaiah the prophet might come true: He himself took our pains and our diseases.
18 Now when Jesus saw a great mass of people about him, he gave an order to go to the other side.
19 And there came a scribe and said to him, Master, I will come after you wherever you go.
20 And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have a resting-place; but the Son of man has nowhere to put his head.
21 And another of the disciples said to him, Lord, let me first go and give the last honours to my father.
22 But Jesus said to him, Come after me; and let the dead take care of their dead.
23 And when he had got into a boat, his disciples went after him.
24 And there came up a great storm in the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was sleeping.
25 And they came to him, and, awaking him, said, Help, Lord; destruction is near.
26 And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
27 And the men were full of wonder, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea do his orders?
28 And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.
29 And they gave a loud cry, saying, What have we to do with you, you Son of God? Have you come here to give us punishment before the time?
30 Now there was, some distance away, a great herd of pigs taking their food.
31 And the evil spirits made strong prayers to him, saying, If you send us out, let us go into the herd of pigs.
32 And he said to them, Go. And they came out, and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea and came to their end in the water.
33 And their keepers went in flight to the town and gave an account of everything, and of the men who had the evil spirits.
34 And all the town came out to Jesus; and seeing him they made request that he would go away from their part of the country.
