2 Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”

6 saying, “Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented.”
my servant lieth in my house ill of the palsy, grievously afflicted:
7 Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
and Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8 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.
But the centurion answering said, Lord, I am not worthy that Thou shouldst come under my roof, but speak the word, and my servant will be healed:
9 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.”
for I also am a man under the authority of others, yet have soldiers under me; and I say to one, go, and he goeth; and to another, come, and he cometh; and to my servant, do this, and he doth it.
10 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.
And when Jesus heard it He marvelled, and said to them that followed Him, Verily, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith even in Israel:
11 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,
but I tell you, that many shall come from the east and from the west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven;
12 but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
and the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into the outer darkness; where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 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.
And Jesus said to the centurion, Go, and be it unto thee as thou hast believed. And his servant was healed in that very hour.

saying, If Thou cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine:
32 He said to them, “Go!” They came out and went into the herd of pigs; and behold, the whole herd of pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea and died in the water.
and He said unto them, Go: and they came out and went away into the herd of swine; and lo, all the herd of swine ran furiously down a precipice into the sea,
33 Those who fed them fled and went away into the city and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.
and perished in the waters. And they that were feeding them fled, and went away into the city, and related all these things, as also concerning the demoniacs.

And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they intreated Him to depart from their coasts.
