Luke 7:4-9

Legacy Standard Bible

⁴ And when they came to Jesus, they were earnestly pleading with Him, saying, “He is worthy for You to grant this to him; ⁵ for he loves our nation and it was he who built us our synagogue.” ⁶ Now Jesus was going on His way with them; and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, “^[a]Lord, do not trouble Yourself further, for I am not good enough for You to come under my roof. ⁷ For this reason I did not even consider myself worthy to come to You, but just ^[b]say the word, and my ^[c]servant will be healed. ⁸ For I also am a man placed under authority, with soldiers under me; and 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 Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled at him. And He turned to the crowd that was following Him and said, “I say to you, ^(A)not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”
