Luke:7:1-10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people ,
he entered into Capernaum .
*
And a certain centurion '
s servant ,
who was dear unto him ,
was sick ,
and ready to die .
*
And when he heard of Jesus ,
he sent unto him the elders of the Jews ,
beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant .
*
And when they came to Jesus ,
they besought him instantly ,
saying ,
That he was worthy for whom he should do this :
*
For he loveth our nation ,
and he hath built us a synagogue .
*
Then Jesus went with them .
And when he was now not far from the house ,
the centurion sent friends to him ,
saying unto him ,
Lord ,
trouble not thyself :
for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof :
*
Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee :
but say in a word ,
and my servant shall be healed .
*
For I also am a man set under authority ,
having under me soldiers ,
and I say unto one ,
Go ,
and he goeth ;
and to another ,
Come ,
and he cometh ;
and to my servant ,
Do this ,
and he doeth it .
*
When Jesus heard these things ,
he marvelled at him ,
and turned him about ,
and said unto the people that followed him ,
I say unto you ,
I have not found so great faith ,
no ,
not in Israel .
*
And they that were sent ,
returning to the house ,
found the servant whole that had been sick .
