Luke 7:1-10

Listen to Luke 7:1-10

A Centurion's Faith

1 When He had concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum.
2 A centurion's slave, who was highly valued by him, was sick and about to die.
3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to Him, requesting Him to come and save the life of his slave.
4 When they reached Jesus, they pleaded with Him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy for You to grant this,
5 because he loves our nation and has built us a synagogue."
6 Jesus went with them, and when He was not far from[a] the house, the centurion sent friends to tell Him, "Lord, don't trouble Yourself, since I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.
7 That is why I didn't even consider myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant will be cured.[b]
8 For I too am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under my command.[c] I say to this one, 'Go!' and he goes; and to another, 'Come!' and he comes; and to my slave, 'Do this!' and he does it."
9 Jesus heard this and was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following Him, He said, "I tell you, I have not found so great a faith even in Israel!"
10 When those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.
