New Century Version

Mark 1:38-42 New Century Version (NCV)

38. Jesus answered, “We should go to other towns around here so I can preach there too. That is the reason I came.”

39. So he went everywhere in Galilee, preaching in the synagogues and forcing out demons.

40. A man with a skin disease came to Jesus. He fell to his knees and begged Jesus, “You can heal me if you will.”

41. Jesus felt sorry for the man, so he reached out his hand and touched him and said, “I will. Be healed!”

42. Immediately the disease left the man, and he was healed.
