Luke 7:2-10

2

And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.

3

So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant.

4

And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving,

5

for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue.

6

Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

7

Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant will be healed.

8

For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it.

9

When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, "I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!"

10

And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well who had been sick.
