Matthew 8:5-13

Thomson(i) 5 And as Jesus was entering Capernaum, a centurion met him and in treated him, 6 saying, Sir, my servant lieth at home struck with a palsy, in great torture. 7 Thereupon Jesus saith to him, I was coming; I will cure him. 8 In reply to which the centurion said, Sir, I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof; but only speak a word and my servant will be cured. 9 For even I, who am myself under command, having soldiers under me, say to one, Go; and he goeth: and to another, Come; and he cometh: and to my slave, Do this; and he doth it. 10 Upon hearing this Jesus expressed admiration, saying to them who followed him, Verily I say to you, I have not found even in Israel such a belief. 11 Now I say to you that many will come from the east and west, and will be placed at table with Abraham and Isaak and Jacob, in the kingdom of the heavens, 12 and the children of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness. Weeping and gnashing of teeth will be there. 13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, Go thy way and be it done for thee as thou hast believed. And that very instant his servant was cured.
