Luke 5:12-14

J.B. Phillips New Testament

Jesus cures leprosy

¹² While he was in one of the towns, Jesus came upon a man who was a mass of leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself before him and begged, “If you want to, Lord, you can make me clean.”

¹³ Jesus stretched out his hand, placed it on the leper, saying, “Certainly I want to. Be clean!”

¹⁴ Immediately the leprosy left him and Jesus warned him not to tell anybody, but to go and show himself to the priest and to make the offerings for his recovery that Moses prescribed, as evidence to the authorities.
