# bowed before him

This is a sign of humble respect before Jesus. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction]])

"if you want to" or "if you desire." The leper knew that Jesus had the power to heal him, but he did not know if Jesus would want to touch him.

# you can make me clean

2017-06-21 20:50:04 +00:00
Here "clean" means to be healed and to be able to live in the community again. AT: "you can heal me" or "please heal me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])

# Be clean
By saying this, Jesus healed the man. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-imperative]])
# Immediately
"Right away"
# he was cleansed of his leprosy
2017-06-24 00:15:21 +00:00
The result of Jesus saying "Be clean" was that the man was healed. This can be stated in active form. AT: "he was well" or "the leprosy left him" or "the leprosy ended" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
