The Faith of the Centurion
1 When Jesus had finished saying all this to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum.
2
There a centurion’s servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die.
3
The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant.
4
When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this,
5
because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”
