A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, "If you are willing, you can make me clean."
Jesus
was indignant. He reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am
willing," he said. "Be clean!" Immediately the leprosy left him and he
was cleansed.
Jesus
sent him away at once with a strong warning: "See that you don't tell
this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the

them." Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news.
As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed
outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from
everywhere.
