Jesus Heals a Sick Man
12 One time Jesus was in a town where a very sick man lived.
This man was covered with leprosy. When the man saw Jesus, he bowed before Jesus and begged him,
“Lord, you have the power to heal me if you want.”
13 Jesus said,
“I want to heal you. Be healed!”
Then he touched the man, and immediately the leprosy disappeared.
14 Then Jesus said, “Don’t tell anyone about what happened.
But go and let the priest look at you.
And offer a gift to God for your healing as Moses commanded.
This will show people that you are healed.”
15 But the news about Jesus spread more and more.
Many people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses.
16 Jesus often went away to other places to be alone so that he could pray.

Jesus Heals a Man
12 Once Jesus was in a town where there was a man who was suffering from a dreaded skin disease. When he saw Jesus, he threw himself down and begged him, “Sir, if you want to, you can make me clean!”
13 Jesus reached out and touched him. “I do want to,” he answered. “Be clean!” At once the disease left the man.
14 Jesus ordered him, “Don’t tell anyone, but go straight to the priest and let him examine you; then to prove to everyone that you are cured, offer the sacrifice as Moses ordered.”
15 But the news about Jesus spread all the more widely, and crowds of people came to hear him and be healed from their diseases.
16 But he would go away to lonely places, where he prayed.
