Mark
1:40-45
A leper came to him begging him,
and kneeling he said to him, ‘If you choose, you can make
me clean.’ Moved with pity,
Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, and said to
him, ‘I do choose. Be made clean!’ Immediately the leprosy
left him, and he was made clean. After sternly warning him he sent him away
at once, saying to him, ‘See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show
yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, as a
testimony to them.’ But he went out and began to proclaim it
freely, and to spread the word, so that Jesus could no longer go into a
town openly, but stayed out in the country; and people came to him from every
quarter.
