Now when he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.

And behold, a leper came near and bowed down to him, saying, Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.
And stretching out his hand, he touched him, saying, I am willing; be cleansed. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Ὅρα μηδενὶ εἴπῃς, ἀλλὰ ὕπαγε σεαυτὸν δεῖξον τῷ ἱερεῖ, καὶ προσένεγκον τὸ δῶρον ὃ προσέταξεν Μωϋσῆς εἰς μαρτύριον αὐτοῖς.
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 as a testimony to them.
When he entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him.
And he said, Lord, my servant has fallen sick at home, paralyzed, suffering severely.
And he says to him, I, having come, will heal him.
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ἑκατόνταρχος ἔφη· Κύριε, οὐκ εἰμὶ ἱκανὸς ἵνα μου ὑπὸ τὴν στέγην εἰσέλθῃς· ἀλλὰ μόνον εἰπὲ λόγῳ, καὶ ἰαθήσεται ὁ παῖς μου·
And the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.
καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ ἄνθρωπός εἰμι ὑπὸ ἐξουσίαν, ἔχων ὑπ' ἐμαυτὸν στρατιώτας, καὶ λέγω τούτῳ· Πορεύθητι, καὶ πορεύεται, καὶ ἄλλῳ· Ἔρχου, καὶ ἔρχεται, καὶ τῷ δούλῳ μου· Ποίησον τοῦτο, καὶ ποιεῖ.
For I am also a man under authority, having soldiers under me, and I say to this one, Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes, and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
ἀκούσας δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐθαύμασεν καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς ἀκολουθοῦσιν· Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, παρ' οὐδενὶ τοσαύτην πίστιν ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ εὗρον.
When Jesus heard this, he marveled and said to those following him, Truly I say to you, I have not found such faith in anyone in Israel.
λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν ὅτι πολλοὶ ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ δυσμῶν ἥξουσιν καὶ ἀνακλιθήσονται μετὰ Ἀβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακὼβ ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῶν οὐρανῶν·
But I say to you that many will come from east and west and will recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens.
οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ τῆς βασιλείας ἐκβληθήσονται εἰς τὸ σκότος τὸ ἐξώτερον· ἐκεῖ ἔσται ὁ κλαυθμὸς καὶ ὁ βρυγμὸς τῶν ὀδόντων.
But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into outer darkness; there will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth there.
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς τῷ ἑκατοντάρχῃ· Ὕπαγε, ὡς ἐπίστευσας γενηθήτω σοι· καὶ ἰάθη ὁ παῖς ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ ἐκείνῃ.
And Jesus said to the centurion, Go; as you have believed, let it be done for you. And the servant was healed at that hour.
And Jesus, having come into Peter’s house, saw his mother-in-law lying down and having a fever.
And he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and served him.
Ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης προσήνεγκαν αὐτῷ δαιμονιζομένους πολλούς· καὶ ἐξέβαλεν τὰ πνεύματα λόγῳ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας ἐθεράπευσεν·
When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he cast out the spirits by a word and healed all who were sick.
ὅπως πληρωθῇ τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ Ἠσαΐου τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος· Αὐτὸς τὰς ἀσθενείας ἡμῶν ἔλαβεν καὶ τὰς νόσους ἐβάστασεν.
so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled: He took our weaknesses and bore our diseases.
Now when Jesus saw many crowds around him, he commanded to go away to the other side.
And a certain scribe came and said to him, Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.
καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Αἱ ἀλώπεκες φωλεοὺς ἔχουσιν καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατασκηνώσεις, ὁ δὲ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου οὐκ ἔχει ποῦ τὴν κεφαλὴν κλίνῃ.
And Jesus says to him, The foxes have dens and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.
Another of the disciples said to him, Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.
But Jesus said to him, Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.
And when he entered into the boat, his disciples followed him.
καὶ ἰδοὺ σεισμὸς μέγας ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ, ὥστε τὸ πλοῖον καλύπτεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν κυμάτων, αὐτὸς δὲ ἐκάθευδεν.
And behold, a great storm arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered by the waves, but he was sleeping.
And they came to him and woke him, saying, Lord, save us, we are perishing.
καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· Τί δειλοί ἐστε, ὀλιγόπιστοι; τότε ἐγερθεὶς ἐπετίμησεν τοῖς ἀνέμοις καὶ τῇ θαλάσσῃ, καὶ ἐγένετο γαλήνη μεγάλη.
And he says to them, Why are you afraid, you of little faith? Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
οἱ δὲ ἄνθρωποι ἐθαύμασαν λέγοντες· Ποταπός ἐστιν οὗτος ὅτι καὶ οἱ ἄνεμοι καὶ ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούουσιν;
But the men marveled, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?
Καὶ ἐλθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ πέραν εἰς τὴν χώραν τῶν Γαδαρηνῶν ὑπήντησαν αὐτῷ δύο δαιμονιζόμενοι ἐκ τῶν μνημείων ἐξερχόμενοι, χαλεποὶ λίαν ὥστε μὴ ἰσχύειν τινὰ παρελθεῖν διὰ τῆς ὁδοῦ ἐκείνης.
And when he came to the other side, to the region of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men met him coming out of the tombs, very violent so that no one could pass that way.
And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with you, Son of God? Have you come here before the age to torment us?
And there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.
οἱ δὲ δαίμονες παρεκάλουν αὐτὸν λέγοντες· Εἰ ἐκβάλλεις ἡμᾶς, ἀπόστειλον ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν ἀγέλην τῶν χοίρων.
The demons begged him, saying, If you cast us out, send us into the herd of pigs.
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Ὑπάγετε. οἱ δὲ ἐξελθόντες ἀπῆλθον εἰς τοὺς χοίρους· καὶ ἰδοὺ ὥρμησεν πᾶσα ἡ ἀγέλη κατὰ τοῦ κρημνοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, καὶ ἀπέθανον ἐν τοῖς ὕδασιν.
And he said to them, Go. And they went out and went into the pigs. And behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and they died in the waters.
But the herdsmen fled, and having gone into the city, they reported everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed.
καὶ ἰδοὺ πᾶσα ἡ πόλις ἐξῆλθεν εἰς ὑπάντησιν τῷ Ἰησοῦ, καὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν παρεκάλεσαν ὅπως μεταβῇ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτῶν.
And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus, and seeing him, they begged him to depart from their region.
