Jesus commanded the people not to tell any person about what happened. Jesus always commanded people not to tell other people about him. But this only caused the people to tell about him more and more.
Then Jesus said to him, “Don’t tell any person about what happened. But go and show yourself to the priest. {\cf2\super [89]} And offer the gift that Moses commanded \{for people that are made well\}. This will show people that you are healed.”
The people were really amazed. The people said, “Jesus does everything in a good way. Jesus makes deaf people able to hear. And people that can’t talk—Jesus makes them able to talk.”
Jesus and the followers were walking back down the mountain. Jesus commanded the followers, “Don’t tell any person about the things you saw on the mountain. Wait until after the Son of Man {\cf2\super [106]} rises from death. Then you can tell people what you saw.”
