Matthew 8:14-23
14 |
Now when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his wife's mother lying sick with a fever. |
15 |
So He touched her hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and served them. |
16 |
When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, |
17 |
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:"He Himself took our infirmities And bore our sicknesses." |
18 |
And when Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, He gave a command to depart to the other side. |
19 |
Then a certain scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go." |
20 |
And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head." |
21 |
Then another of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father." |
22 |
But Jesus said to him, "Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead." |
23 |
Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. |
