Luke 7:1-10 ESV
After he had finished all his sayings in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum. 2 Now a centurion
had a servant who was sick and at the point of death, who was highly valued by him. 3 When the centurion
heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 And when
they came to Jesus, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy to have you do this for him, 5 for
he loves our nation, and he is the one who built us our synagogue.” 6 And Jesus went with them. When he was
not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not
worthy to have you come under my roof. 7 Therefore I did not presume to come to you. But say the word, and
let my servant be healed. 8 For I too am a man set under authority, with 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 turning to the crowd that followed him, said, “I tell you, not
even in Israel have I found such faith.” 10 And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they
found the servant well.
