1 And having come down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.

2 And, behold, a leper, having come, worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt thou canst cleanse me.

3 And having stretched forth the hand, Jesus touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed and instantly his leprosy was cleansed.

4 And Jesus says to him, See thou tell no one; but retire, show thyself to the priest, and bring near the gift which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

5 And Jesus having entered into Capernaum, a captain of a hundred came to him, and beseeching him,

6 And saying, Lord, my servant has been laid up in the house a paralytic, being grievously tormented.

7 And Jesus says to him, I, having come, will cure him.

8 And the captain of a hundred having answered said, Lord, I am not fit that thou shouldest enter in under my roof: but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed.

9 For I also am a man under power, having soldiers under me: and I say to this, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does.

10 And Jesus having heard, admired, and said to those following; Verily I say to you, not in Israel have I found such faith.
