Luke 7:1–10

Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, ^ahe entered into Capernaum. ²And a certain centurion’s servant, who was ^bdear unto him, was sick, and ready to die. ³And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him ^cthe elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and ^dheal his servant. ⁴And when they came to Jesus, they besought him ^einstantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this: ^5fFor he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue. ⁶Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent ^cfriends to him, saying unto him, Lord, ^gtrouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof: ⁷Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. ⁸For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto ^†one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ⁹When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found ^hso great faith, no, not in Israel. ¹⁰And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.
