Healing Of The Centurion's Servant
42. Matt 8:5-13
5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came
unto him a centurion, beseeching him, 6 And saying, Lord,
my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously
tormented. 7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal
him. 8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not
worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak
the word only, and my servant shall be healed. 9 For I am a
man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to
this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he
cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. 10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that
followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great
faith, no, not in Israel. 11 And I say unto you, That many
shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with
Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into
outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as
thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant
was healed in the selfsame hour.
