1. And when He came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.
2. And see, a leper came, and bowed before Him, saying, “Master, if You desire, You are able to make me clean.”
3. And stretching out His hand יהושע touched him, saying, “I desire it. Be cleansed!” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4. And יהושע said to him, “See, mention it to no one. But go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Mosheh commanded, as a witness to them.”
5. And when יהושע had entered Kephar Naḥum, a captain came to Him, appealing to Him,
6. saying, “Master, my servant is lying in the house paralysed, grievously tortured.”
7. And יהושע said to him, “I shall come and heal him.”
8. And the captain answering, said, “Master, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only say a word, and my servant shall be healed.
9. “For I too am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. 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.”
10. And when יהושע heard, He marvelled, and said to those who followed, “Truly, I say to you, not even in Yisra’ĕl have I found such great belief!
11. “And I say to you that many shall come from east and west, and sit down with Aḇraham, and Yitsḥaq, and Ya‛aqoḇ in the reign of the heavens,
12. but the sons of the reign shall be cast out into outer darkness – there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13. And יהושע said to the captain, “Go, and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that hour.
14. And when יהושע had come into the house of Kĕpha, He saw his wife’s mother lying sick with inflammation.
