Luke 7:1-10

Listen to Luke 7:1-10

1 When Jesus had finished everything he wanted to say to the people, he went to Capernaum.

2 There a Roman army officer's valuable slave was sick and near death.

3 The officer had heard about Jesus and sent some Jewish leaders to him. They were to ask Jesus to come and save the servant's life.

4 They came to Jesus and begged, "He deserves your help.

5 He loves our people and built our synagogue at his own expense."

6 Jesus went with them. He was not far from the house when the officer sent friends to tell Jesus, "Sir, don't bother. I don't deserve to have you come into my house.

7 That's why I didn't come to you. But just give a command, and let my servant be cured.

8 As you know, I'm in a chain of command and have soldiers at my command. I tell one of them, 'Go!' and he goes, and another, 'Come!' and he comes. I tell my servant, 'Do this!' and he does it."

9 Jesus was amazed at the officer when he heard these words. He turned to the crowd following him and said, "I can guarantee that I haven't found faith as great as this in Israel."

10 When the men who had been sent returned to the house, they found the servant healthy again.
