The Gospel of Matthew - - 8:1-10:42

1. On coming down from the mountain many crowds followed him. And a leper approached and worshipped him saying. “Lord if you want to you are able to clean me. And stretching out his hand he touched him saying. “I am willing. Be clean.” And immediately the leprosy was cleaned from him. 8:1-4
2. On entering into Capernaum a centurion approached him beseeching him and saying. “Lord my boy has been laid aside in the house as a paralytic terribly tortured.” He (Jesus) says to him. “I will heal him.” Answering the centurion said. “Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof. Only say the word and my boy will be healed. For I myself am a man in authority having soldiers under myself. I say to this one “Go” and he goes. To another I say, “Come” and he comes and to my slave I say “Do this” and he does it.” Hearing this Jesus marvelled and said those following. “Truly I tell you that I have not found such faith in anyone in Israel. And I tell you that many will come from the east and west and will recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness were there will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth." Jesus said to the centurion. “Go. Let it be done to you as you believe.” And the boy was healed in that hour.8:5-13
