Mattityahu 8
8
1And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came down from the mountain, many multitudes followed him.
2And an ish metzorah (a leper) there was who approached him and fell down before Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Adoneinu, if you choose, you can make me tahor (clean).
3And, having stretched out his hand, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched him, saying, I am willing. Be made tahor. And immediately he was.
4And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, See that you tell no one, but go and show yourself to the kohen and offer the korban about which Moshe gave mitzvah as an edut to them.
5Now when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach entered into K'far-Nachum, a centurion approached him, begging him
6and saying, Adoneinu, my servant has been bedridden in the house, paralyzed, in terrible tza'ar.
7And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, I am coming. I will bring him refuah (healing).
8The centurion answered, Adoneinu, I am not worthy that you might come under my roof, but only say the dvar, and my servant will receive the refuah (healing).
9For I also am a man under marut (authority), having soldiers subordinate to myself, and I say to this one, Go! And he goes, and to another, Come! And he comes, and to my servant, Do this! And he does it.
10And having heard this, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was amazed and said to those who followed him, Omein, I say to you, in no one in Yisroel have I found such great emunah.
11And I say to you, that many from the mizrach (east) and the maarav (west) will come and will sit bimesibba (reclining at tish) with Avraham and Yitzchak and Ya'akov in the Malchut HaShomayim.
12But the Bnei HaMalchut will be thrown out into the outer choshech (darkness), where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.
13And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to the centurion, Go! According to your bitachon (trust), your emunah (faith), let it be for you. And his servant was given refuah (healing) punkt (exactly) at that hour.
14When Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach entered the bais (house) of Kefa, he saw the chamot (mother-in-law, shviger) bedridden and fever stricken.
15Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched her hand, and the fever left her. She then began functioning as his mesharetet (servant, lady minister), serving Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
16And when erev (evening) had come, they brought to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach many possessed by shedim (evil spirits, demons), and he cast out the shedim with a dvar, and all the cholim (sick persons) he healed.
17Thus was fulfilled what was spoken by Yeshayah the Navi, saying, ACHEN CHOLAYEINU HU NASA UMACHOVEINU SVALAM#8:17 Isa 53:4 (Surely he took up our sicknesses and he carried away#8:17 T.N. like the Yom Kippur sa'ir l'Azazel scapegoat kapporah our sorrows).
18And when he saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side.
19A sofer (scribe, torah teacher) approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and said, Rebbe, I will follow you wherever you go.
20And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Foxes have holes and the OPH HASHOMAYIM#8:20 Job 35:11 (birds of heaven) have nests, but the Bar Enosh#8:20 Moshiach, Dan 7:13-14 does not have a place where he may lay his head.
21And another of Moshiachʼs talmidim said to him, Adoneinu, allow me first to go and bury my father.
22But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Follow me, and permit the mesim (spiritually dead ones without hitkhadshut, spiritually unregenerate ones) to bury their own mesim (deceased ones, niftarim).
23And when he embarked into the sirah, Moshiachʼs talmidim followed him.
24And hinei! a great storm came up on the lake, so that the sirah (boat) was about to be covered by the waves. But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was sleeping.
25And Moshiachʼs talmidim approached and woke him, saying, Adoneinu, hoshieinu! We are perishing!
26And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Why are you fearful, you ones of little emunah? Then, arising, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was a great calm.
27And the men were astonished, saying, What sort of man is this!? That even the winds and the sea obey him!
28And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came to the other side of the lake, in the land of the people of Gadara, he was met by two men possessed by shedim (demons); these men were coming out of the kevarim (tombs) of the burial caves and were so dangerous no one could pass by on that road.
29And they screamed, saying, Mah lanu valach, Ben HaElohim? (What to us and to you, Ben HaElohim?)#8:29 i.e., What business do you have with us, Ben HaElohim Have you come here to torture us before the time?#8:29 of the Yom HaDin, the Day of Judgment
30Now there was feeding far away from them a large herd of chazirim (swine).
31And the shedim begged him, saying, If you cast us out, send us into the herd of chazirim.
32And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Go away! So the shedim, coming out, went away into the chazirim. And, hinei, all the herd of chazirim rushed down the bank into the lake, and they perished in the water.
33And the herdsmen of the chazirim fled, and, having gone away into the town, they told the whole story of what had happened to the men possessed by shedim.
34And hinei! The whole town came out to meet Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach. And seeing him, they begged him to depart from their area.

Matthew 8
8
1And when he came down from the mount, great multitudes did follow him,
2and lo, a leper having come, was bowing to him, saying, ‘Sir, if thou art willing, thou art able to cleanse me;’
3and having stretched forth the hand, Jesus touched him, saying, ‘I will, be thou cleansed,’ and immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4And Jesus saith to him, ‘See, thou mayest tell no one, but go, thyself shew to the priest, and bring the gift that Moses commanded for a testimony to them.’
5And Jesus having entered into Capernaum, there came to him a centurion calling upon him,
6and saying, ‘Sir, my young man hath been laid in the house a paralytic, fearfully afflicted,’
7and Jesus saith to him, ‘I, having come, will heal him.’
8And the centurion answering said, ‘Sir, I am not worthy that thou mayest enter under my roof, but only say a word, and my servant shall be healed;
9for I also am a man under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth, and to another, Be coming, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doth [it].’
10And Jesus having heard, did wonder, and said to those following, ‘Verily I say to you, not even in Israel so great faith have I found;
11and I say to you, that many from east and west shall come and recline (at meat) with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the reign of the heavens,
12but the sons of the reign shall be cast forth to the outer darkness — there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.’
13And Jesus said to the centurion, ‘Go, and as thou didst believe let it be to thee;’ and his young man was healed in that hour.
14And Jesus having come into the house of Peter, saw his mother-in-law laid, and fevered,
15and he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she arose, and was ministering to them.
16And evening having come, they brought to him many demoniacs, and he did cast out the spirits with a word, and did heal all who were ill,
17that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, ‘Himself took our infirmities, and the sicknesses he did bear.’
18And Jesus having seen great multitudes about him, did command to depart to the other side;
19and a certain scribe having come, said to him, ‘Teacher, I will follow thee wherever thou mayest go;’
20and Jesus saith to him, ‘The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven places of rest, but the Son of Man hath not where he may lay the head.’
21And another of his disciples said to him, ‘Sir, permit me first to depart and to bury my father;’
22and Jesus said to him, ‘Follow me, and suffer the dead to bury their own dead.’
23And when he entered into the boat his disciples did follow him,
24and lo, a great tempest arose in the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves, but he was sleeping,
25and his disciples having come to him, awoke him, saying, ‘Sir, save us; we are perishing.’
26And he saith to them, ‘Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?’ Then having risen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm;
27and the men wondered, saying, ‘What kind — is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?’
28And he having come to the other side, to the region of the Gergesenes, there met him two demoniacs, coming forth out of the tombs, very fierce, so that no one was able to pass over by that way,
29and lo, they cried out, saying, ‘What — to us and to thee, Jesus, Son of God? didst thou come hither, before the time, to afflict us?’
30And there was far off from them a herd of many swine feeding,
31and the demons were calling on him, saying, ‘If thou dost cast us forth, permit us to go away to the herd of the swine;’
32and he saith to them, ‘Go.’ And having come forth, they went to the herd of the swine, and lo, the whole herd of the swine rushed down the steep, to the sea, and died in the waters,
33and those feeding did flee, and, having gone to the city, they declared all, and the matter of the demoniacs.
34And lo, all the city came forth to meet Jesus, and having seen him, they called on [him] that he might depart from their borders.
