Matthew 8:1-4, New Living Translation
Chapter 8
Jesus Heals a Man with Leprosy
1 Large crowds followed Jesus as he came down the mountainside.
2 Suddenly, a man with leprosy approached Jesus. He knelt before him, worshiping. "Lord," the man said, "if you want to, you can make me well again."
3 Jesus touched him. "I want to," he said. "Be healed!" And instantly the leprosy disappeared.
4 Then Jesus said to him, "Go right over to the priest and let him examine you. Don't talk to anyone along the way. Take along the offering required in the law of Moses for those who have been healed of leprosy, so everyone will have proof of your healing."
