Luke 7:1-10

1 ^aWhen He had completed all His discourse in the hearing of the people, ^bHe went to Capernaum.

2 And a centurion’s slave, ^{▼▼ Lit to whom he was honorable}who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die. 3 When he heard about Jesus, ^dhe sent some ^{▼▼ Lit elders of the Jews}Jewish elders asking Him to come and ^{▼▼ Lit bring safely through, rescue}save the life of his slave. 4 When they came to Jesus, they earnestly implored Him, saying, “He is worthy for You to grant this to him; 5 for he loves our nation and it was he who built us our synagogue.” 6 Now Jesus started on His way with them; and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, ^{▼▼ Or Sir}“Lord, do not trouble Yourself further, for I am not worthy for You to come under my roof; 7 for this reason I did not even consider myself worthy to come to You, but just ^{▼▼ Lit say with a word}say the word, and my ^{▼▼ Or boy}servant will be healed. 8 “For I also am a man placed under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” 9 Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled at him, and turned and said to the crowd that was following Him, “I say to you, ^jnot even in Israel have I found such great faith.” 10 When those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.
