1 When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.
1 Y COMO descendió del monte, le seguían muchas gentes.
1 When he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
2 Suddenly a leper came and knelt before Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
2 Y he aquí un leproso vino, y le adoraba, diciendo: Señor, si quisieres, puedes limpiarme.
2 Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”
3 Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
3 Y extendiendo Jesús su mano, le tocó, diciendo: Quiero; sé limpio. Y luego su lepra fué limpiada.
3 Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 Then Jesus instructed him, “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift prescribed by Moses, as a testimony to them.”
4 Entonces Jesús le dijo: Mira, no lo digas á nadie; mas ve, muéstrate al sacerdote, y ofrece el presente que mandó Moisés, para testimonio á ellos.
4 Jesus said to him, “See that you tell nobody; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
5 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came and pleaded with Him,
5 Y entrando Jesús en Capernaum, vino á él un centurión, rogándole,
5 When he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him for help,
6 “Lord, my servant lies at home, paralyzed and in terrible agony.”
6 Y diciendo: Señor, mi mozo yace en casa paralítico, gravemente atormentado.
6 saying, “Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented.”
7 “I will go and heal him,” Jesus replied.
7 Y Jesús le dijo: Yo iré y le sanaré.
7 Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
8 The centurion answered, “Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Y respondió el centurión, y dijo: Señor, no soy digno de que entres debajo de mi techado; mas solamente di la palabra, y mi mozo sanará.
8 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.
9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”
9 Porque también yo soy hombre bajo de potestad, y tengo bajo de mí soldados: y digo á éste: Ve, y va; y al otro: Ven, y viene; y á mi siervo: Haz esto, y lo hace.
9 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.”
10 When Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those following Him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.
10 Y oyendo Jesús, se maravilló, y dijo á los que [le] seguían: De cierto os digo, que ni aun en Israel he hallado fe tanta.
10 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.
11 I say to you that many will come from the east and the west to share the banquet with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
11 Y os digo que vendrán muchos del oriente y del occidente, y se sentarán con Abraham, é Isaac, y Jacob, en el reino de los cielos:
11 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,
12 But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
12 Mas los hijos del reino serán echados á las tinieblas de afuera: allí será el lloro y el crujir de dientes.
12 but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! As you have believed, so will it be done for you.” And his servant was healed at that very hour.
13 Entonces Jesús dijo al centurión: Ve, y como creiste te sea hecho. Y su mozo fué sano en el mismo momento.
13 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.
14 When Jesus arrived at Peter’s house, He saw Peter’s mother-in-law sick in bed with a fever.
14 Y vino Jesús á casa de Pedro, y vió á su suegra echada en cama, y con fiebre.
14 When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw his wife’s mother lying sick with a fever.
15 So He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she got up and began to serve them.
15 Y tocó su mano, y la fiebre la dejó: y ella se levantó, y les servía.
15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her. So she got up and served him.
16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to Jesus, and He drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.
16 Y como fué ya tarde, trajeron á él muchos endemoniados; y echó los demonios con la palabra, y sanó á todos los enfermos;
16 When evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick,
17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “He took on our infirmities and carried our diseases.”
17 Para que se cumpliese lo que fué dicho por el profeta Isaías, que dijo: El mismo tomó nuestras enfermedades, y llevó nuestras dolencias.
17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.”
18 When Jesus saw a large crowd around Him, He gave orders to cross to the other side of the sea.
18 Y viendo Jesús muchas gentes alrededor de sí, mandó pasar á la otra parte [del lago].
18 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.
19 And one of the scribes came to Him and said, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”
19 Y llegándose un escriba, le dijo: Maestro, te seguiré á donde quiera que fueres.
19 A scribe came and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”
20 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.”
20 Y Jesús le dijo: Las zorras tienen cavernas, y las aves del cielo nidos; mas el Hijo del hombre no tiene donde recueste su cabeza.
20 Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
21 Another of His disciples requested, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
21 Y otro de sus discípulos le dijo: Señor, dame licencia para que vaya primero, y entierre á mi padre.
21 Another of his disciples said to him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”
22 But Jesus told him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
22 Y Jesús le dijo: Sígueme; deja que los muertos entierren á sus muertos.
22 But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”
23 When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him.
23 Y entrando él en el barco, sus discípulos le siguieron.
23 When he got into a boat, his disciples followed him.
24 Suddenly a violent storm came up on the sea, so that the boat was engulfed by the waves; but Jesus was sleeping.
24 Y he aquí, fué hecho en la mar un gran movimiento, que el barco se cubría de las ondas; mas él dormía.
24 Behold, a violent storm came up on the sea, so much that the boat was covered with the waves; but he was asleep.
25 The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
25 Y llegándose sus discípulos, le despertaron, diciendo: Señor, sálvanos, [que] perecemos.
25 The disciples came to him and woke him up, saying, “Save us, Lord! We are dying!”
26 “You of little faith,” Jesus replied, “why are you so afraid?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was perfectly calm.
26 Y él les dice: ¿Por qué teméis, [hombres] de poca fe? Entonces, levantándose, reprendió á los vientos y á la mar; y fué grande bonanza.
26 He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey Him!”
27 Y los hombres se maravillaron, diciendo: ¿Qué hombre es éste, que aun los vientos y la mar le obedecen?
27 The men marveled, saying, “What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
28 When Jesus arrived on the other side in the region of the Gadarenes, He was met by two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.
28 Y como él hubo llegado en la otra ribera al país de los Gergesenos, le vinieron al encuentro dos endemoniados que salían de los sepulcros, fieros en gran manera, que nadie podía pasar por aquel camino.
28 When he came to the other side, into the country of the Gergesenes, two people possessed by demons met him there, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that nobody could pass that way.
29 “What do You want with us, Son of God?” they shouted. “Have You come here to torture us before the appointed time?”
29 Y he aquí clamaron, diciendo: ¿Qué tenemos contigo, Jesús, Hijo de Dios? ¿has venido acá á molestarnos antes de tiempo?
29 Behold, they cried out, saying, “What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”
30 In the distance a large herd of pigs was feeding.
30 Y estaba lejos de ellos un hato de muchos puercos paciendo.
30 Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.
31 So the demons begged Jesus, “If You drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”
31 Y los demonios le rogaron, diciendo: Si nos echas, permítenos ir á aquel hato de puercos.
31 The demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of pigs.”
32 “Go!” He told them. So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and died in the waters.
32 Y les dijo: Id. Y ellos salieron, y se fueron á aquel hato de puercos: y he aquí, todo el hato de los puercos se precipitó de un despeñadero en la mar, y murieron en las aguas.
32 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.
33 Those tending the pigs ran off into the town and reported all this, including the account of the demon-possessed men.
33 Y los porqueros huyeron, y viniendo á la ciudad, contaron todas las cosas, y lo que había pasado con los endemoniados.
33 Those who fed them fled and went away into the city and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.
34 Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him to leave their region.
34 Y he aquí, toda la ciudad salió á encontrar á Jesús: y cuando le vieron, le rogaban que saliese de sus términos.
34 Behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged that he would depart from their borders.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
We have heard, as the Gospel was being read, the praise of our faith as manifested in humility. For when the Lord Jesus promised that He would go to the Centurion's house to heal His servant, He answered, "I am not worthy that Thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and he shall be healed."

The leper came unto Him "when He was come down from the mountain," but this centurion, "when He was entered into Capernaum." Wherefore then did neither the one nor the other go up into the mountain? Not out of remissness, for indeed the faith of them both was fervent, but in order not to interrupt His teaching.

They maintain that he is the centurion mentioned in the Gospel, who addressed the Saviour in these words: "For I also am one having soldiers and servants under my authority; and whatsoever I command they do." They further hold that he will continue administering the affairs of the world as long as that is fitting and needful, and specially that …

It was in this way that the centurion also said, "I am not fit that thou shouldest enter under my roof;" because of this, he became worthy, and was "marvelled at" above all Jews.
