LA LEPRA DESAPARECIO Y QUEDO PURIFICADO.
Se acercó a Jesús un leproso para pedirle ayuda y, cayendo de rodillas, le dijo: "Si quieres, puedes purificarme", Jesús, conmovido, extendió la mano y lo tocó, diciendo: "Lo quiero, queda purificado". En seguida la lepra desapareció y quedó purificado. Jesús lo despidió, advirtiéndole severamente: "No le digas nada a nadie, pero ve a presentarte al sacerdote y entrega por tu purificación la ofrenda que ordenó Moisés, para que les sirva de testimonio". Sin embargo, apenas se fue, empezó a proclamarlo a todo el mundo, divulgando lo sucedido, de tal manera que Jesús ya no podía entrar públicamente en ninguna ciudad, sino que debía quedarse afuera, en lugares desiertos. Y acudían a él de todas partes.
A leper came to him and kneeling down begged him and said,
“If you wish, you can make me clean.”
Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand,
touched the leper, and said to him,
“I do will it. Be made clean.”
The leprosy left him immediately, and he was made clean.
Then, warning him sternly, he dismissed him at once.
Then he said to him, “See that you tell no one anything,
but go, show yourself to the priest
and offer for your cleansing what Moses prescribed;
that will be proof for them.”
The man went away and began to publicize the whole matter.
He spread the report abroad
so that it was impossible for Jesus to enter a town openly.
He remained outside in deserted places,
and people kept coming to him from everywhere.
