1. AND when he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him:
2. And behold a leper came and adored him, saying: Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
3. And Jesus stretching forth his hand, touched him, saying: I will, be thou made clean. And forthwith his leprosy was cleansed.
4. And Jesus saith to him: See thou tell no man: but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses commanded for a testimony unto them.
5. And when he had entered into Capharnaum, there came to him a centurion, beseeching him,
6. And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, and is grieviously tormented.
7. And Jesus saith to him: I will come and heal him.
8. And the centurion making answer, said: Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst enter under my roof: but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
9. For I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers; and I say to this, Go, and he goeth, and to another, Come, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
10. And Jesus hearing this, marvelled; and said to them that followed him: Amen I say to you, I have not found so great faith in Israel.
