Mark:1:40-45
mnt@Mark:1:40 @ 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."
mnt@Mark:1:41 @ Jesus, moved with compassion, put out his hand and touched him, saying, "I do choose, be clean!"
mnt@Mark:1:42 @ The leprosy at once left him, and he was made clean.
mnt@Mark:1:43 @ Jesus immediately sent him away, charging him sternly and saying.
mnt@Mark:1:44 @ "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."
mnt@Mark:1:45 @ 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.
