3 But when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, entreating him that he would come and preserve the life of his servant. 4 And when they came to Jesus, they entreated him importunately, saying, He is a worthy man on whom thou wilt confer this favour: 5 for he loveth our nation, and hath himself built us a synagogue. 6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion dispatched towards him friends, saying to him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not deserving that thou shouldest enter beneath my roof.
