10and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. Jesus said to Simon,“Don’t be afraid. From now on you will be catching people alive.” 11When they had brought their boats to land, they left everything, and followed him. 12While he was in one of the cities, behold, there was a man full of leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.” 13He stretched out his hand and touched him, saying,“I want to. Be made clean.”Immediately the leprosy left him. 14He commanded him to tell no one,“But go your way and show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing according to what Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”
