7 And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
8 The centurion answered and said, “Lord, aI am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only bspeak a word, and my servant will be healed.
9 For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
10 When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!
11 And I say to you that amany will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
12 But athe sons of the kingdom bwill be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.
