Jesus Heals a Centurion's Servant

2 Now a centurion had a servant 1 who was sick and at the point of death, who was highly valued by him. 3 When the centurion 2 heard about Jesus, c he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 And when they came to Jesus, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying, d "He is worthy to have you do this for him, 5 for he loves our nation, and he is the one who built us e our synagogue." 6 And Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, f do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof.
