Matthew 7:28-8:4

New International Version

²⁸ When Jesus had finished saying these things,^(A) the crowds were amazed at his teaching,^{(B) 29} because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.

Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy^(C)

8 When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. ² A man with leprosy^[a](D) came and knelt before him^(E) and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

³ Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. ⁴ Then Jesus said to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone.^(F) But go, show yourself to the priest^(G) and offer the gift Moses commanded,^(H) as a testimony to them.”
