Mark 1:40-44

Jesus Cleanses a Leper

40  a And a leper ▼
▼ Leprosy was a term for several skin diseases; see Leviticus 13
came to him, imploring him, and c kneeling said to him d “If you will, you can make me clean.”
41 Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him and said to him, “I will; be clean.” 42 And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean. 43 And e Jesus ▼
▼ Greek he; also verse 45
sternly charged him and sent him away at once,
44 and said to him, g “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go h show yourself to the priest and i offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded j for a proof to them.”
