1 After he had ended all his sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

2 And a certain captain's slave, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.

3 And when he heard concerning Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him that he would come and save his slave.

4 And they, when they came to Jesus, implored him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that you should do this for him;

5 for he loves our nation, and himself built us our synagogue.

6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the captain sent friends, saying to him, Lord, don't trouble yourself; for I am not worthy that you should come under my roof:

7 therefore neither did I think myself worthy to come to you: but say the word, and let my [young] slave be healed.

8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under myself soldiers: 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 And when Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you{}, I haven't found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

10 And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the slave whole.
