* One day a leper cane to him and besought him as he knelt down to him , saying , "If you choose , you are able to cleanse me ." * Jesus , moved with compassion , put out his hand and touched him , saying , "I do choose , be clean !" * The leprosy at once left him , and he was made clean . * Jesus immediately sent him away , charging him sternly and saying . * "See you say nothing to any one ; but go your way , show yourself to the priest , and offer for your purification what Moses commanded for a testimony to them ." * But he went out and began to tell every one and to publish it broadcast , so that Jesus could no longer enter any town openly ; but he had to remain outside in lonely places , and people kept coming to him from every quarter .
