5 Having entered Capernaum, a centurion accosted him with this request,
6 Sir, my man-servant lies sick at home, exceedingly afflicted with a palsy.
7 Jesus answered, I will go and cure him.
8 The centurion replying, said, Sir, I am not worthy, that you should come under my roof; only say the word, and my servant will be healed.
9 For even I, who am under command myself, having soldiers under me, say to one, Go, and he goes; to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
10 Jesus hearing this, was astonished, and said to those who followed, Indeed, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found so great faith.
11 But I assure you, that many will come from the east and from the west, and will be placed at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven,
12 while the sons of the kingdom shall be thrust out into outer darkness, where will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, Go home; be it to you, according to your faith. That instant his servant was cured.
