9 This man was giving ear to the preaching of Paul, who, looking at him, and seeing that he had faith to be made well,
And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Have you faith that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord. Then he put his hand on their eyes, saying, As your faith is, let it be done to you.
And Peter, looking at him, with John, said, Keep your eyes on us.
But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.
And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.
And a leper came to him and, going down on his knees before him, made a request, saying, If it is your pleasure, you have the power to make me clean. And being moved with pity, he put out his hand, and touching him said to him, It is my pleasure; be made clean.
And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to him, Son, you have forgiveness for your sins.
And Jesus said to him, If you are able! All things are possible to him who has faith. Straight away the father of the child gave a cry, saying, I have faith; make my feeble faith stronger.
