Luke 5

12 k And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of l leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and 1 implored Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean." 13 Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." m Immediately the leprosy left him. 14 n And He charged him to tell no one, "But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, o just as Moses commanded." 15 However, p the report went around concerning Him all the more; and q great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. 16 r So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and s prayed.
