Par 

1 When he was come downe fro the mountayne, great multitudes folowed hym.

2 And beholde, there came a leper, and worshipped hym, saying: Lorde, yf thou wylt, thou canst make me cleane.

3 And Iesus put foorth his hande, and touched hym, saying: I wyll, be thou cleane. And immediatlye his leprosie was clensed.

4 And Iesus sayth vnto hym: See thou tell no man, but go, and shewe thy selfe to the priest, and offer the gift that Moyses commaunded, for a witnes vnto them.

5 And when Iesus was entred into Capernaum, there came vnto hym a Centurion, besechyng hym.

6 And saying: Lorde, my seruaunt lyeth at home sicke of the paulsie, greeuously payned.

7 And Iesus sayth. When I come, I wyll heale hym.

8 The Centurion aunswered, & sayde: Lorde, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come vnder my roofe: but speake the worde only, & my seruaunt shalbe healed.

9 For I also my selfe am vnder aucthoritie, and haue souldiers vnder me: and I say to this man go, and he goeth: and to another, come, and he commeth: and to my seruaunt, do this, and he doth it.

10 When Iesus hearde him , he marueyled, & sayde to them that folowed him : Ueryly I say vnto you, I haue not founde so great fayth in Israel.

11 I say vnto you, that many shall come from the east and west, and shall rest with Abraham, and Isaac, & Iacob, in the kyngdome of heauen.

12 But the chyldren of the kyngdome shalbe caste out, into vtter darcknesse: there shalbe wepyng, and gnashyng of teeth.
