Mateo 8

Nueva Biblia Viva

de Biblica
1 Jesús descendía de la colina seguido de una multitud inmensa 2 cuando, de pronto, un leproso se le acercó y se puso de rodillas ante él. ―Señor —suplicó el leproso—, si quieres, puedes curarme. 3 Jesús, extendiendo la mano, lo tocó y le dijo: ―Quiero. ¡Ya estás curado! E instantáneamente la lepra desapareció. 4 ―No te detengas a conversar con nadie —le ordenó entonces Jesús—. Ve en seguida a que el sacerdote te examine y presenta la ofrenda que requiere la ley de Moisés, para que les conste que ya estás bien. 5 Cuando Jesús llegó a Capernaúm, un capitán del ejército romano se le acercó y le rogó 6 que sanara a un sirviente que estaba en cama paralítico y que sufría mucho. 7 Le respondió Jesús: ―Iré a sanarlo. 8 ―Señor —le dijo entonces el capitán—, no soy digno de que vayas a mi casa. Desde aquí mismo puedes ordenar que se sane mi criado y se sanará. 9 Lo sé, porque estoy acostumbrado a obedecer las órdenes de mis superiores; además, si yo le digo a alguno de mis soldados que vaya a algún lugar, va; y si le digo que venga, viene; y si le digo a mi esclavo que haga esto o aquello, lo hace. 10 Al oír esto, Jesús se maravilló y les dijo a quienes lo seguían: ―¡En todo Israel no he hallado una fe tan grande como la de este hombre! 11 Óiganme lo que les digo: Muchos gentiles, al igual que este soldado romano, irán de todas partes del mundo a sentarse en el reino de los cielos con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob. 12 En cambio, muchos israelitas que deberían estar en el reino, serán arrojados a las tinieblas de afuera donde todo es llorar y crujir los dientes. 13 Entonces Jesús le dijo al soldado: ―Vete; lo que creíste ya se ha cumplido. Y el criado se sanó en aquella misma hora. 14 Cuando Jesús llegó a la casa de Pedro, la suegra de este estaba en cama con una fiebre muy alta. 15 Jesús fue y la tocó, y la fiebre la dejó; y ella se levantó a servirlos. 16 Por la noche llevaron varios endemoniados a Jesús. Bastaba una sola palabra para que los demonios huyeran y los enfermos sanaran. 17 Así se cumplió la profecía de Isaías: «Él mismo tomó nuestras enfermedades y llevó nuestras dolencias».[1] 18 Al ver Jesús que la multitud crecía, pidió a sus discípulos que se prepararan para pasar al otro lado del lago. 19 En eso, un maestro de la ley de Dios le dijo: ―Maestro, te seguiré vayas adonde vayas. 20 ―Las zorras tienen guaridas y las aves nidos —le respondió Jesús—; pero yo, el Hijo del hombre, no tengo ni dónde recostar la cabeza. 21 Otro de sus seguidores le dijo: ―Señor, te seguiré pero déjame que vaya antes a enterrar a mi padre. 22 Pero Jesús le contestó: ―No, sígueme ahora. Deja que los que están muertos se ocupen de sus muertos. 23 Entonces subió a una barca con sus discípulos y zarparon de allí. 24 Durante la travesía se quedó dormido. Poco después se levantó una tormenta tan violenta que las olas inundaban la barca. 25 Los discípulos corrieron a despertar a Jesús: ―¡Señor, sálvanos! ¡Nos estamos hundiendo! 26 ―Hombres de poca fe, ¿a qué viene tanto miedo? —les respondió. Entonces, se puso de pie, reprendió al viento y a las olas, y la tormenta cesó y todo quedó en calma. 27 Pasmados, los discípulos se decían: «¿Quién es este, que aun los vientos y la mar lo obedecen?». 28 Ya al otro lado del lago, en tierra de los gadarenos, dos endemoniados le salieron al encuentro. Vivían en el cementerio, y eran tan peligrosos que nadie se atrevía a andar por aquella zona. 29 Al ver a Jesús, le gritaron: ―¡Déjanos tranquilos, Hijo de Dios! ¡Todavía no es hora de que nos atormentes! 30 Por aquellos alrededores andaba un hato de cerdos, 31 y los demonios le suplicaron a Jesús: ―Si nos vas a echar fuera, déjanos entrar en aquel hato de cerdos. 32 ―Está bien —les respondió Jesús—. Vayan. Y los demonios salieron de los hombres y entraron en aquellos cerdos. Estos se despeñaron desde un acantilado y se ahogaron en el lago. 33 Los que cuidaban los cerdos salieron corriendo y se fueron a la ciudad a contar lo sucedido, 34 y la ciudad entera vino al encuentro de Jesús y le suplicaron que se fuera de aquellos lugares.

Mateo 8

English Standard Version

de Crossway
1 When he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him. (Mt 4:25) 2 And behold, a leper[1] came to him and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” (Mt 18:26; Mr 1:40; Lc 5:12; Hch 10:25) 3 And Jesus[2] stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a proof to them.” (Lv 14:2; Mt 9:30; Mt 10:18; Mt 12:16; Mt 17:9; Mt 24:14; Mr 1:34; Mr 5:43; Mr 6:11; Mr 7:36; Mr 8:26; Lc 9:5; Lc 17:14; Stg 5:3) 5 When he had entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, (Lc 7:1) 6 “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly.” 7 And he said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8 But the centurion replied, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. (Sal 107:20; Mt 8:16) 9 For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my servant,[3] ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” 10 When Jesus heard this, he marveled and said to those who followed him, “Truly, I tell you, with no one in Israel[4] have I found such faith. (Mt 9:2; Mr 6:6) 11 I tell you, many will come from east and west and recline at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, (Is 59:19; Mal 1:11; Lc 13:29; Ef 3:6) 12 while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” (Mt 13:42; Mt 13:50; Mt 19:30; Mt 21:41; Mt 21:43; Mt 22:13; Mt 24:51; Mt 25:30; Lc 13:28) 13 And to the centurion Jesus said, “Go; let it be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed at that very moment. (Mt 9:22; Mt 9:29; Jn 4:53) 14 And when Jesus entered Peter’s house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever. (Mr 1:29; Lc 4:38; 1 Co 9:5) 15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and began to serve him. (Mt 9:25) 16 That evening they brought to him many who were oppressed by demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. (Mt 4:24; Mt 8:8; Mt 8:28; Mt 8:33) 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: “He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.” (Is 53:4; Mt 1:22) 18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side. (Mt 14:22; Mr 4:35; Lc 8:22; Jn 6:15) 19 And a scribe came up and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” (Lc 9:57) 20 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” 21 Another of the disciples said to him, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” 22 And Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.” (Jn 5:25) 23 And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. (Mr 4:36; Lc 8:22; Jn 6:16) 24 And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep. (Jn 4:6) 25 And they went and woke him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing.” (Mt 14:30) 26 And he said to them, “Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?” Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. (Job 38:11; Sal 65:7; Sal 104:6; Mt 6:30; Mt 14:32; Lc 4:39; Jn 14:27) 27 And the men marveled, saying, “What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?” (Mr 1:27; Lc 5:9) 28 And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes,[5] two demon-possessed[6] men met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way. (Mt 8:16; Mr 5:1; Lc 8:26; Ap 18:2) 29 And behold, they cried out, “What have you to do with us, O Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?” (Mt 4:3; Mt 4:6; Mt 14:33; Mr 1:23; Mr 1:26; Lc 4:34; Hch 8:7; Ap 12:12) 30 Now a herd of many pigs was feeding at some distance from them. 31 And the demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of pigs.” 32 And he said to them, “Go.” So they came out and went into the pigs, and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters. 33 The herdsmen fled, and going into the city they told everything, especially what had happened to the demon-possessed men. (Mt 8:16) 34 And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus, and when they saw him, they begged him to leave their region. (1 R 17:18; Lc 5:8; Hch 16:39)
