MODERN LITERAL VERSION

8:1 And when he had come down from the mountain, large crowds followed him.
{Mk 1:40-45 & Mt 8:2-4 & Lk 5:12-16.}


8:2 And behold, a leper having come to him, worshiped him, saying, Lord, if you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.


8:3 And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, I am willing; be cleansed. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

8:4 And Jesus says to him, See that you tell no one, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift that Moses commanded, *for a testimony to them. {Lev. 13:49, 14:2ff}
{Mt 8:1, 5-13 & Lk 7:1-10 Capernaum.}


8:5 And when Jesus entered into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, pleading with him,

8:6 and saying, Lord, my young-servant, a paralytic, has been laid in the house, terribly tormented.


8:7 And Jesus says to him, I will come and heal him.


8:8 And the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not sufficient that* you should come under my roof, but only speak by word and my young-servant will be healed.

8:9 For* I am a man also 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 bondservant, Do this and he does it.


8:10 And when Jesus heard it, he marveled and said to those who followed, Assuredly I say to you*, I have not found so-great a faith, not even in Israel.

8:11 And I say to you* that many will come from the east and the west and will recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven;

8:12 but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness– the weeping and the gnashing of teeth will be there.

8:13 And Jesus said to the centurion, Go and as you have believed, let it happen for you. And his young-servant was healed in that hour.
{Mk 1:29-34 & Mt 8:14-17 & Lk 4:38-41 Capernaum.}


8:14 And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw that his mother-in-law was lying and fevered.

8:15 And he touched her hand and the fever left her, and she arose and served him.

8:16 And when it became evening, they brought to him many demon-possessed and he cast out the spirits by word and healed all who were ill;

8:17 *that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, saying, ‘He himself took our sicknesses and bears our diseases.' {Is. 53:4}
{Mk 4:35-41 & Mt:8:18-27 & Lk 8:22-25 Sea of Galilee.}


8:18 Now when Jesus saw large crowds around him, he gave commands to go to the other side.

8:19 And a scribe, having come to him, said, Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.


8:20 And Jesus says to him, The foxes have burrows and the birds of the heaven have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere he may bow his head.


8:21 And another of his disciples said to him, Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.


8:22 But Jesus said to him, Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.


8:23 And when he had stepped into the ship, his disciples followed him.

8:24 And behold, a great squall happened in the sea, so-that the ship was hidden by the waves, but he was sleeping.

8:25 And the disciples came to him and aroused him, saying, Save us Lord! We are perishing!


8:26 And he says to them, Why are you* cowardly? O you* of little faith! Then he arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there became a great calm.


8:27 And the men marveled, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea are obeying* him?
{Mk 5:1-21 & Mt 8:28-34 & Lk 8:26-40 Gergesa.}


8:28 And when he had come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, two demon-possessed men met him, coming forth out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so-that no one was strong-enough to pass through that way.

8:29 And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus the Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?

8:30 Now a herd of many swine was feeding from afar, away from them.

8:31 And the demons pleaded with him, saying, If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine.


8:32 And he said to them, Go. And they came out and went into the herd of swine and behold, the whole herd of swine rushed down the cliff into the sea and died in the waters.

8:33 And those who are feeding them fled and went away into the city and reported everything and what had happened to those who were demon-possessed.

8:34 And behold, all the city came out *for a meeting with Jesus and when they saw him, they pleaded with him *that he might proceed from their borders.
