Luke 7:1-5 ▼

1 When He had completed all His words in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.

2 And a centurion’s slave, who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die.

3 Now when he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders asking Him to come and save the life of his slave.

4 And when they came to Jesus, they were earnestly pleading with 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.”
