Luke 7:1-5 ▼

1 After Jesus had finished saying all these things to the people who were there listening, he went to Capernaum.

2 There a centurion's servant, whom he valued highly, was sick and about to die.

3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to him to ask him to come and save his servant's life.

4 So they went to Jesus and begged him repeatedly, |He deserves to have this done for him,

5 because he loves our people and built our synagogue for us.|
