And Jesus came down from the mountain and great multitudes were following him.

And it happened, that when Jesus was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy saw Jesus and
came to him, and he knelt down before Jesus and worshipped him (bowed his head to the ground),
and begged him, saying, Lord if you will, you can make me clean.

And Jesus feeling pity for the man, reached out his hand, and touched him, and said, I will; be you clean.

And as soon as Jesus had spoken, straight away the leprosy left the man, and he was cleansed.

And Jesus said to the man, See you tell no man; but go your way, and show yourself to the priest,
and offer for your cleansing, the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

But the fame of Jesus spread everywhere: and great multitudes of people came together to hear Jesus,
and to be healed by him of their diseases.

Within these few scriptures we can see that Jesus Christ was willing to help the man, and also that,
Jesus Christ was compassionate. Matthew 8:3..Luke 5:13..Mark 1:41
