He makes well a leper

And a leper came and gave him worship, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean. Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”
And he put his hand on him, saying, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away he was made clean. Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.

A centurion's servant made well

And when Jesus was come into Capernaum, a certain captain came to him with a request, When he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him,
Saying, Lord, my servant is ill in bed at the house, with no power in his body, and in great pain. and saying, “Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented.”
And he said to him, I will come and make him well. Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
And the captain in answer said, Lord, I am not good enough for you to come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be made well. 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.
Because I myself am a man under authority, having under me fighting men; 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. 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.”
And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel. 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 I say to you that numbers will come from the east and the west, and will take their seats with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven: 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 the sons of the kingdom will be put out into the dark, and there will be weeping and cries of pain. but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
And Jesus said to the captain, Go in peace; as your faith is, so let it be done to you. And the servant was made well in that hour. 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 another of the disciples said to him, Lord, let me first go and give the last honours to my father. Another of his disciples said to him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

And he said to them, Go. And they came out, and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea and came to their end in the water. 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.
