Jesus Heals a Centurion's Servant

7 When Jesus had finished saying all this in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum. 2 There a centurion's servant, who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard about Jesus and sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they earnestly pleaded with him, saying, “This man is worthy to have yoʋ do this for him, 5 for he loves our nation and built our synagogue for us.” 6 So Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yoʋrself, for I am not worthy to have yoʋ enter under my roof; 7 therefore I did not even consider myself worthy to come to yoʋ. But just say the word, and [fn]my servant will be healed. 8 For I too am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me. I say to this 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 this, he was amazed at the centurion. And turning to the crowd that was following him, he said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.” 10 Then the men the centurion had sent returned to the house and found that the servant [fn]who had been sick was well.
