* When he had finished his discourse in the audience of the people , he entered Capernaum . * And a centurion 's servant , who was dear to his master , was sick , and in danger of dying . * And the centurion , having heard concerning Jesus , sent to him Jewish elders , to entreat him to come and save his servant . * When they came to Jesus , they earnestly besought him , saying , He is worthy of this favor ; * for he loves our nations ; and it was he who built our synagogue . * Then Jesus went with them ; and when he was not far from the house , the centurion sent friends to him , to say , Master , trouble not yourself ; for I have not deserved that you should come under my roof ; * wherefore neither thought I myself fit to come into your presence ; say but the word , and my servant will be healed . * For even I , who am under the authority of others , having soldiers under me , say to one , Go , and he goes ; to another , Come , and he comes ; and to my servant , Do this , and he does it . * Jesus hearing these things , admired him , and turning , said to the multitude which followed , * And they who had been sent , having returned to the house , found the servant well , who had been sick .
