Luke 7:1-10
Read Luke 7 in full →The Centurion’s Faith
2And a centurion’s slave, 1who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die. 3Now when he heard about Jesus, ahe sent some 1Jewish elders asking Him to come and 2save the life of his slave. 4And when they came to Jesus, they were earnestly pleading with Him, saying, “He is worthy for You to grant this to him; 5for he loves our nation and it was he who built us our synagogue.” 6Now Jesus was going on His way with them; and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, “1Lord, do not trouble Yourself further, for I am not good enough for You to come under my roof. 7“For this reason I did not even consider myself worthy to come to You, but just 1say the word, and my 2servant 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.” 9Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled at him. And He turned to the crowd that was following Him and said, “I say to you, anot even in Israel have I found such great faith.” 10And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.
