1 And when He had ended all His words in the ears of the people, He entered into Capernaum.
2 And a certain servant of a centurion who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.
3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent the elders of the Jews to Him, begging Him that He would come and heal his servant.
4 And coming to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that he was worthy, he for whom You give this;
5 for, [they said], He loves our nation, and he has built us a synagogue.
6 Then Jesus went with them. But He being yet not far off 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 neither did I think myself worthy to come to You; but say a word, and my servant will be healed.
8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers. 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 And hearing these things, Jesus marveled at him. And turning to the crowd following Him, He said, I say to you, I have not found such faith, no, not in Israel.
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the sick servant well.
