‏ Luke 7:6

6 So ^{▼▼tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the resultative action.} Jesus went with them. When ^{▼▼tn The participle ἀπέχοντος (apechontos) has been taken temporally.} he was not far from the house, the centurion ^{▼▼sn See the note on the word centurion in 7:2.} sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, ^{▼▼tn Or “do not be bothered.”} for I am not worthy ^{▼▼sn Note the humility in the centurion’s statement I am not worthy in light of what others think (as v. 4 notes). See Luke 5:8 for a similar example of humility.} to have you come under my roof!
