008:008 The centurion answered, "Lord, I'm not worthy for you to come
under my roof. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
008:009 For I am also a man under authority, having under myself soldiers.
I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and tell another, 'Come,'
and he comes; and tell my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
008:010 When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to those who followed,
"Most certainly I tell you, I haven't found so great a faith,
not even in Israel.
008:011 I tell you that many will come from the east and the west,
and will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the
Kingdom of Heaven,
008:012 but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the
outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
008:013 Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way. Let it be done
for you as you have believed." His servant was healed
in that hour.
008:014 When Jesus came into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother
lying sick with a fever.
008:015 He touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up
and served him.{TR reads "them" instead of "him"}
008:016 When evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons.
He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick;
008:017 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah
the prophet, saying: "He took our infirmities, and bore
our diseases."{Isaiah 53:4}
008:018 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave
the order to depart to the other side.
008:019 A scribe came, and said to him, "Teacher, I will follow you
wherever you go."
008:020 Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky
have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."
008:021 Another of his disciples said to him, "Lord, allow me first
to go and bury my father."
008:022 But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury
their own dead."
008:023 When he got into a boat, his disciples followed him.
008:024 Behold, a violent storm came up on the sea, so much that the boat
was covered with the waves, but he was asleep.
008:025 They came to him, and woke him up, saying, "Save us, Lord!
We are dying!"
008:026 He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?"
Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was
a great calm.
008:027 The men marveled, saying, "What kind of man is this,
that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
008:028 When he came to the other side, into the country of the
Gergesenes,{NU reads "Gadarenes"} two people possessed by demons
met him there, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce,
so that nobody could pass that way.
008:029 Behold, they cried out, saying, "What do we have to do
