Matthew 8:2

Verse 2 of 34. The 8th of 28 chapters in Matthew, in The Gospels.

1When he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

2Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”

3Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

4Jesus said to him, “See that you tell nobody; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

5When he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him for help,

6saying, “Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented.”
