Luke 7:1-7

1 Now when He had ended all His sayings in the audience of the people, He entered into Capernaum.

2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick and ready to die.

3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent the elders of the Jews unto Him, beseeching Him that He would come and heal his servant.

4 And when they came to Jesus they besought Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was worthy,

5 "for he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue."

6 And Jesus went with them. And when He was 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.

7 Therefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto Thee. But say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
