Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Lalaking May Malubhang Sakit sa Balat
(Mar. 1:40-45; Luc. 5:12-16)
1Nang bumaba na si Jesus mula sa bundok, sinundan siya ng napakaraming tao. 2Lumapit sa kanya ang isang lalaking may malubhang sakit sa balat8:2 malubhang sakit sa balat: Sa ibang salin ng Biblia, ketong. Ang Griegong salita nito ay ginamit sa ibaʼt ibang klase ng sakit sa balat na itinuturing na marumi ayon sa Lev. 13. at lumuhod sa harap niya, at sinabi, “Panginoon, kung gusto nʼyo po, mapapagaling nʼyo ako upang maituring akong malinis.” 3Hinawakan siya ni Jesus at sinabi, “Gusto ko. Luminis ka!” Agad na gumaling ang kanyang sakit at luminis siya. 4At sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Huwag mo itong sasabihin kaninuman. Sa halip, pumunta ka sa pari at magpasuri. Pagkatapos, maghandog ka ayon sa iniutos ni Moises bilang patunay na malinis ka na.”
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Utusan ng Kapitan
(Luc. 7:1-10)
5Nang dumating si Jesus sa bayan ng Capernaum, pumunta sa kanya ang isang kapitan ng hukbong Romano at nakiusap: 6“Panginoon, may sakit po ang aking utusan. Nakaratay siya sa bahay at nasa matinding paghihirap.” 7Sinabi ni Jesus, “Pupuntahan ko siya at pagagalingin.” 8Pero sumagot ang kapitan, “Panginoon, hindi po ako karapat-dapat na puntahan nʼyo ang tahanan ko. Sabihin nʼyo na lang na gumaling siya, at gagaling na ang aking utusan. 9Alam ko ito dahil nasa ilalim ako ng nakakataas na opisyal, at may nasasakupan din akong mga sundalo. Kapag sinabi ko sa isa, ‘Pumunta ka roon,’ pumupunta siya. Kapag sinabi kong, ‘Halika,’ lumalapit siya. At kung ano pa ang iniuutos ko sa aking alipin, sinusunod niya.” 10Namangha si Jesus nang marinig niya ito. At sinabi niya sa mga taong sumusunod sa kanya, “Sinasabi ko sa inyo ang totoo, hindi pa ako nakakita ng isang tao sa Israel na may ganitong pananampalataya. 11Sinasabi ko rin sa inyo na maraming hindi Judio mula sa ibaʼt ibang dako ang kakaing kasama nina Abraham, Isaac, at Jacob sa handaan ng paghahari ng Dios. 12Ngunit maraming Judio, na paghaharian sana ng Dios, ang itatapon sa matinding kadiliman sa labas. At doon ay iiyak sila, at magngangalit ang kanilang mga ngipin.”8:12 magngangalit ang kanilang mga ngipin: Maaaring dahil sa galit o hinagpis. 13At sinabi ni Jesus sa kapitan, “Umuwi ka na. Mangyayari ang hinihiling mo ayon sa iyong pananampalataya.” At nang oras ding iyon ay gumaling ang utusan ng kapitan.
Maraming Pinagaling si Jesus
(Mar. 1:29-34; Luc. 4:38-41)
14Pumunta si Jesus sa bahay ni Pedro. Pagdating niya roon, nakita niya ang biyenang babae ni Pedro na nakahiga at nilalagnat. 15Hinawakan ni Jesus ang kamay ng babae at nawala ang lagnat nito. Bumangon siya at pinagsilbihan si Jesus.
16Nang magtakip-silim na, maraming sinasaniban ng masasamang espiritu ang dinala ng mga tao kay Jesus. Sa isang salita lang, pinalayas niya ang masasamang espiritu at pinagaling ang mga may sakit. 17Ginawa niya ang mga ito upang matupad ang sinabi ni Propeta Isaias,
“Kinuha niya ang ating mga sakit
at inalis ang ating mga karamdaman.”8:17 Isa. 55:4.
Ang Pagsunod kay Jesus
(Luc. 9:57-62)
18Nang makita ni Jesus ang napakaraming tao sa kanyang paligid, inutusan niya ang mga tagasunod niya na tumawid sa kabila ng lawa. 19May tagapagturo ng Kautusan na lumapit sa kanya at sinabi, “Guro, susunod po ako sa inyo kahit saan.” 20Pero sinagot siya ni Jesus, “May mga lungga ang mga asong-gubat, at may mga pugad ang mga ibon. Ngunit ako na Anak ng Tao ay walang sariling tahanan na mapagpahingahan.” 21Isa pa sa mga tagasunod niya ang nagsabi, “Panginoon, pauwiin po muna ninyo ako para maipalibing ko ang aking ama.”8:21 pauwiin po muna ninyo ako para maipalibing ko ang aking ama: Maaaring ang ibig sabihin, uuwi muna siya habang hindi pa patay ang kanyang ama, at kapag namatay na at nailibing, susunod siya kay Jesus. 22Pero sinabi ni Jesus sa kanya, “Sumunod ka sa akin at ipaubaya mo sa mga patay ang paglilibing ng kanilang patay.”
Pinatigil ni Jesus ang Malakas na Hangin at Alon
(Mar. 4:35-41; Luc. 8:22-25)
23Sumakay sa bangka si Jesus, at sumama ang mga tagasunod niya. 24At habang naglalayag sila, biglang lumakas ang hangin at halos matabunan na ng malalaking alon ang kanilang bangka. Natutulog noon si Jesus. 25Kaya nilapitan siya ng mga tagasunod niya at ginising, “Panginoon, iligtas nʼyo po kami! Malulunod na tayo!” 26Sumagot si Jesus, “Bakit kayo natatakot? Kay liit ng inyong pananampalataya.” Bumangon si Jesus at pinatigil ang hangin at ang mga alon, at biglang kumalma ang tubig. 27Namangha ang mga tagasunod niya at sinabi, “Anong klaseng tao ito? Kahit ang hangin at mga alon ay napapasunod niya!”
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Dalawang Lalaking Sinasaniban ng Masasamang Espiritu
(Mar. 5:1-20; Luc. 8:26-39)
28Nang dumating siya sa kabila ng lawa, sa lupain ng mga Gadareno,8:28 Gadareno: Sa ibang tekstong Griego, Geraseno o, Gergeseno. sinalubong siya ng dalawang lalaking galing sa mga kwebang libingan. Ang mga lalaking itoʼy sinasaniban ng masasamang espiritu. Napakababangis nila, kaya walang nakakadaan doon. 29Sumigaw sila kay Jesus, “Ano ang pakialam mo sa amin, ikaw na anak ng Dios? Pumunta ka ba rito para pahirapan kami nang wala pa sa takdang panahon?” 30Sa di-kalayuan ay may malaking kawan ng baboy na nanginginain. 31Nakiusap ang masasamang espiritu sa kanya, “Kung palalayasin mo kami, payagan mo na lang kaming pumasok sa mga baboy na iyon.” 32Sinabi ni Jesus, “Sige, umalis kayo!” Kaya lumabas ang masasamang espiritu sa dalawang lalaki at pumasok sa mga baboy. Nagtakbuhan ang buong kawan ng baboy pababa ng burol, nagtuloy-tuloy sa lawa at nalunod.
33Tumakbo ang mga tagapag-alaga ng mga baboy papunta sa bayan at ipinamalita ang nangyari sa mga baboy at sa dalawang lalaking sinaniban ng masasamang espiritu. 34Kaya lumabas ang lahat ng tao sa bayan at pinuntahan si Jesus, at nakiusap sila na umalis siya sa lugar nila.
Jesus Heals a Man Who Had a Skin Disease
1Jesus came down from the mountainside. Large crowds followed him. 2A man who had a skin disease came and got down on his knees in front of Jesus. He said, “Lord, if you are willing to make me ‘clean,’ you can do it.”
3Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing to do it,” he said. “Be ‘clean’!” Right away the man was healed of his skin disease. 4Then Jesus said to him, “Don’t tell anyone. Go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift Moses commanded. It will be a witness to everyone.”
A Roman Commander Has Faith
5When Jesus entered Capernaum, a Roman commander came to him. He asked Jesus for help. 6“Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home and can’t move. He is suffering terribly.”
7Jesus said, “Shall I come and heal him?”
8The commander replied, “Lord, I am not good enough to have you come into my house. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9I myself am a man under authority. And I have soldiers who obey my orders. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes. I tell that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
10When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. He said to those following him, “What I’m about to tell you is true. In Israel I have not found anyone whose faith is so strong. 11I say to you that many will come from the east and the west. They will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of heaven. They will sit with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 12But those who think they belong in the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness. There they will weep and grind their teeth.”
13Then Jesus said to the Roman commander, “Go! It will be done just as you believed it would.” And his servant was healed at that moment.
Jesus Heals Many People
14When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother-in-law. She was lying in bed. She had a fever. 15Jesus touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up and began to serve him.
16When evening came, many people controlled by demons were brought to Jesus. He drove out the spirits with a word. He healed all who were sick. 17This happened so that what Isaiah the prophet had said would come true. He had said,
“He suffered the things we should have suffered.
He took on himself the sicknesses that should have been ours.” (Isaiah 53:4)
The Cost of Following Jesus
18Jesus saw the crowd around him. So he gave his disciples orders to go to the other side of the Sea of Galilee. 19Then a teacher of the law came to him. He said, “Teacher, I will follow you no matter where you go.”
20Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens. Birds have nests. But the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”
21Another follower said to him, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
22But Jesus told him, “Follow me. Let the dead bury their own dead.”
Jesus Calms the Storm
23Jesus got into a boat. His disciples followed him. 24Suddenly a terrible storm came up on the lake. The waves crashed over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25The disciples went and woke him up. They said, “Lord! Save us! We’re going to drown!”
26He replied, “Your faith is so small! Why are you so afraid?” Then Jesus got up and ordered the winds and the waves to stop. It became completely calm.
27The disciples were amazed. They asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”
Jesus Heals Two Men Controlled by Demons
28Jesus arrived at the other side of the lake in the area of the Gadarenes. Two men controlled by demons met him. They came from the tombs. The men were so wild that no one could pass that way. 29“Son of God, what do you want with us?” they shouted. “Have you come here to punish us before the time for us to be judged?”
30Not very far away, a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31The demons begged Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”
32Jesus said to them, “Go!” So the demons came out of the men and went into the pigs. The whole herd rushed down the steep bank. They ran into the lake and drowned in the water. 33Those who were tending the pigs ran off. They went into the town and reported all this. They told the people what had happened to the men who had been controlled by demons. 34Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to leave their area.
