rsv Matthew:8:5-13
rsv@Matthew:8:5 @ As he entered Caper'na-um, a centurion came forward to him, beseeching him
rsv@Matthew:8:6 @ and saying, "Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, in terrible distress."
rsv@Matthew:8:7 @ And he said to him, "I will come and heal him."
rsv@Matthew:8:8 @ But the centurion answered him, "Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.
rsv@Matthew:8:9 @ For I am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, `Go,' and he goes, and to another, `Come,' and he comes, and to my slave, `Do this,' and he does it."
rsv@Matthew:8:10 @ When Jesus heard him, he marveled, and said to those who followed him, "Truly, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.
rsv@Matthew:8:11 @ I tell you, many will come from east and west and sit at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven,
rsv@Matthew:8:12 @ while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness; there men will weep and gnash their teeth."
rsv@Matthew:8:13 @ And to the centurion Jesus said, "Go; be it done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed at that very moment.
