Matthew 8
Lexham English Bible

A Leper Cleansed

8 And when[a] he came down from the mountain, large crowds followed him. 2 And behold, a leper approached and[b] worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you are able to make me clean.” 3 And extending his hand he touched him, saying, “I am willing, be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus said to him, “See that you tell no one, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”

A Centurion’s Slave Healed

5 Now when[c] he entered Capernaum, a centurion approached him, appealing to him 6 and saying, “Lord, my slave[d] is lying paralyzed in my[e] house, terribly tormented!” 7 And he said to him, “I will come and[f] heal him.” 8 And the centurion answered and[g] said, “Lord, I am not worthy that you should come in under my roof. But only say the word and my slave will be healed. 9 For I also am a man under authority who has soldiers under me, and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another one, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it[h].”

10 Now when[i] Jesus heard this,[j] he was astonished, and said to those who were following him,[k] “Truly I say to you, I have found such great faith with no one in Israel. 11 But I say to you that many will come from east and west and be seated at the banquet[l] with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!” 13 And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go, as you have believed it will be done for you.” And the slave[m] was healed at that hour.

Many at Capernaum Are Healed

14 And when[n] Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw his mother-in-law lying down and suffering with a fever. 15 And he touched her hand and the fever left her, and she got up and began to serve him.

16 Now when it[o] was evening, they brought to him many who were demon-possessed, and he expelled the spirits with a word. And he healed all those who were sick,[p] 17 in order that what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah would be fulfilled, who said,

“He himself took away our sicknesses,
and carried away our diseases.”[q]

Would-be Followers

18 Now when[r] Jesus saw many crowds[s] around him, he gave orders to depart to the other side.[t] 19 And a scribe approached and[u] said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go!” 20 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.” 21 And another of the disciples[v] said to him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead!”

Calming of a Storm

23 And as[w] he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. 24 And behold, a great storm arose on the sea, so that the boat was being inundated by the waves, but he himself was asleep. 25 And they came and[x] woke him, saying, “Lord, save us![y] We are perishing!” 26 And he said to them, “Why are you fearful, you of little faith?” Then he got up and[z] rebuked the winds and the sea and there was a great calm. 27 And the men were astonished, saying, “What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?”

Demon-possessed Gadarenes Healed

28 And when[aa] he came to the other side,[ab] to the region of the Gadarenes,[ac] two demon-possessed men coming from among the tombs met him, very violent, so that no one was able to pass by along that road. 29 And behold, they cried out, saying, “What do you have to do with us,[ad] Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”[ae] 30 Now a long way from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31 So the demons implored him, saying, “If you are going to expel us, send us into the herd of pigs.” 32 And he said to them, “Go!” So they departed and[af] went into the pigs, and behold, the whole herd rushed headlong down the steep slope into the sea and drowned in the water. 33 Now the herdsmen fled and went into the town and[ag] reported everything, including the things concerning the demon-possessed men. 34 And behold, the whole town came out to meet Jesus, and when they[ah] saw him, they implored him[ai] that he would depart from their region.

Mateo 8
Nueva Biblia de las Américas

Curación de un leproso

8 Cuando Jesús bajó del monte, grandes multitudes lo seguían. 2 (A)Y se acercó un leproso y se postró ante Él[a](B), diciendo: «Señor, si quieres, puedes limpiarme». 3 Extendiendo Jesús la mano, lo tocó, diciendo: «Quiero; sé limpio». Y al instante quedó limpio de su lepra[b](C). 4 Entonces Jesús le dijo*: «Mira, no se lo digas a nadie(D), sino ve(E), muéstrate al sacerdote(F)y presenta la ofrenda que ordenó Moisés, para que les sirva de testimonio a ellos».

Jesús sana al criado del centurión

5 (G)Al entrar Jesús en Capernaúm, se acercó un centurión y le suplicó: 6 «Señor, mi criado[c] está postrado en casa, paralítico(H), sufriendo mucho[d]».

7 Y Jesús le dijo*: «Yo iré y lo sanaré». 8 Pero el centurión respondió: «Señor, no soy digno de que Tú entres bajo mi techo; solamente di la palabra[e] y mi criado[f] quedará sano. 9 Porque yo también soy hombre bajo autoridad(I), con[g] soldados a mis órdenes[h]; y digo a este: “Ve”, y va; y al otro: “Ven”, y viene; y a mi siervo: “Haz esto”, y lo hace».

10 Al oírlo Jesús, se maravilló y dijo a los que lo seguían: «En verdad les digo que en Israel[i]no he hallado en nadie una fe tan grande. 11 Y les digo que vendrán muchos del oriente y del occidente(J), y se sentarán[j]a la mesa con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob en el reino de los cielos. 12 Pero los hijos del reino(K)serán arrojados a las tinieblas de afuera(L); allí será el llanto y el crujir de dientes(M)».

13 Entonces Jesús dijo al centurión: «Vete; así como has creído(N), te sea hecho». Y el criado[k] fue sanado en esa misma hora.

Jesús sana a la suegra de Pedro y a muchos otros

14 (O)Cuando Jesús llegó a casa de Pedro, vio a la suegra de este[l] que estaba en cama[m] con fiebre. 15 Le tocó la mano, y la fiebre la dejó; y ella se levantó y le servía.

16 Y al atardecer, le trajeron muchos endemoniados(P); y expulsó a los espíritus con Su palabra, y sanó a todos los que estaban enfermos(Q), 17 para que se cumpliera lo que fue dicho por medio del profeta Isaías cuando dijo: «Él tomó nuestras flaquezas y llevó[n] nuestras enfermedades(R)».

Lo que demanda el discipulado

18 Viendo Jesús una multitud a Su alrededor, dio orden(S) de pasar al otro lado del mar. 19 (T)Y un escriba se acercó y le dijo: «Maestro, te seguiré adondequiera que vayas». 20 Jesús le respondió*: «Las zorras tienen madrigueras y las aves del cielo nidos, pero el Hijo del Hombre(U)no tiene dónde recostar la cabeza». 21 Otro de los discípulos le dijo: «Señor, permíteme que vaya primero y entierre a mi padre». 22 Pero Jesús le contestó*: «Ven tras Mí, y deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos(V)».

Jesús calma la tempestad

23 (W)Cuando entró Jesús[o] en la barca, Sus discípulos lo siguieron. 24 Y de pronto se desató una gran tormenta[p] en el mar de Galilea, de modo que las olas cubrían la barca; pero Jesús estaba dormido. 25 Llegándose a Él, lo despertaron, diciendo: «¡Señor, sálvanos(X), que perecemos!».

26 Y Él les contestó*: «¿Por qué tienen miedo, hombres de poca fe(Y)?». Entonces Jesús se levantó, reprendió a los vientos y al mar, y sobrevino una gran calma. 27 Los hombres se maravillaron, y decían: «¿Quién es Este, que aun los vientos y el mar lo obedecen?».

Los endemoniados gadarenos

28 (Z)Al llegar Jesús al otro lado, a la tierra de los gadarenos, fueron a Su encuentro dos endemoniados(AA) que salían de los sepulcros, violentos en extremo, de manera que nadie podía pasar por aquel camino. 29 Y gritaron: «¿Qué hay entre Tú y nosotros, Hijo de Dios(AB)? ¿Has venido aquí para atormentarnos antes del tiempo[q]?».

30 A cierta distancia de ellos estaba paciendo una manada de muchos cerdos; 31 y los demonios le rogaban: «Si vas a echarnos fuera, mándanos a la manada de cerdos». 32 «¡Vayan!», les dijo Jesús. Y ellos salieron y entraron en los cerdos; y la manada entera se precipitó por un despeñadero al mar, y perecieron en las aguas.

33 Los que cuidaban la manada huyeron; y fueron a la ciudad y lo contaron todo, incluso[r] lo de los endemoniados(AC). 34 Y toda la ciudad salió al encuentro de Jesús; y cuando lo vieron, le rogaron que se fuera de su región(AD).

Matthew 8
New International Version

Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy(A)

8 When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. 2 A man with leprosy[a](B) came and knelt before him(C) and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

3 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. 4 Then Jesus said to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone.(D) But go, show yourself to the priest(E) and offer the gift Moses commanded,(F) as a testimony to them.”

The Faith of the Centurion(G)

5 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. 6 “Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home paralyzed,(H) suffering terribly.”

7 Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?”

8 The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.(I) 9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.(J) 11 I say to you that many will come from the east and the west,(K) and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.(L) 12 But the subjects of the kingdom(M) will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”(N)

13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would.”(O) And his servant was healed at that moment.

Jesus Heals Many(P)

14 When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her hand and the fever left her, and she got up and began to wait on him.

16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.(Q) 17 This was to fulfill(R) what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

“He took up our infirmities
    and bore our diseases.”[b](S)

The Cost of Following Jesus(T)

18 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to cross to the other side of the lake.(U) 19 Then a teacher of the law came to him and said, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”

20 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man(V) has no place to lay his head.”

21 Another disciple said to him, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”

22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me,(W) and let the dead bury their own dead.”

Jesus Calms the Storm(X)(Y)

23 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”

26 He replied, “You of little faith,(Z) why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.(AA)

27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”

Jesus Restores Two Demon-Possessed Men(AB)

28 When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes,[c] two demon-possessed(AC) men coming from the tombs met him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way. 29 “What do you want with us,(AD) Son of God?” they shouted. “Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?”(AE)

30 Some distance from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31 The demons begged Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”

32 He said to them, “Go!” So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the water. 33 Those tending the pigs ran off, went into the town and reported all this, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 34 Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they pleaded with him to leave their region.(AF)
