Jesus Heals a Man^(A)

8 When Jesus came down from the hill, large crowds followed him. ² Then a man suffering from a dreaded skin disease came to him, knelt down before him, and said, “Sir, if you want to, you can make me clean.”^[a]

³ Jesus reached out and touched him. “I do want to,” he answered. “Be clean!” At once the man was healed of his disease.
