Luke 7:1–17

Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, ahe entered into Capernaum. And a certain centurion’s servant, who was bdear unto him, was sick, and ready to die. And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him cthe elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and dheal his servant. And when they came to Jesus, they besought him einstantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this: fFor he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue. Then 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: Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. For 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. When 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. 10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.

11 And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people. 12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, ithe only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her. 13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. 14 And he came and touched the ||kbier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, lArise. 15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother. 16 mAnd there came a fear on all: and nthey glorified God, saying, That a great oprophet is risen up among us; and, pThat God hath visited his people. 17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.
