Matthew 8:5-10 ▼

5 When Jesus returned to Capernaum, a centurion came up to him and begged him repeatedly,

6 |Sir, my servant is lying at home paralyzed and in terrible pain.|

7 Jesus told him, |I will come and heal him.|

8 The centurion replied, |Sir, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed,

9 because I, too, am a man under authority and I have soldiers under me. I say to one of them 'Go' and he goes, to another 'Come' and he comes, and to my servant 'Do this' and he does it.|

10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and told those who were following him, |I tell all of you with certainty, not even in Israel have I found this kind of faith!
