CLV(i)
1 Since, in fact, He completes all His declarations in the hearing of the people, He entered into Capernaum."
2 Now a certain centurion's slave, who was held in honor by him, having an illness, was about to decease."
3 Now, hearing concerning Jesus, he dispatches to Him elders of the Jews, asking Him so that He, coming, should be bringing his slave safely through."
4 Now, coming along to Jesus, they entreat Him diligently, saying to Him that "Worthy is he to whom Thou shouldst be tendering this,
5 for he loves our nation, and he builds us the synagogue."
6 Now Jesus went with them. Now, as He is already not far away from the house, the centurion sends friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not bother, for not enough am I that Thou mayest be entering under my roof."
7 Wherefore, neither do I count myself worthy to be coming to Thee. But say the word, and my boy will be healed."
8 For I also am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me, and I am saying to this one 'Go,' and he is going, and to another, 'Come,' and he is coming, and to my slave, 'Do this,' and he is doing it."
9 Now, hearing these things, Jesus marvels at him, and, being turned to the throng following Him, said, "I am saying to you that not even in Israel did I find so much faith."
10 And, returning into the house, those sent found the infirm slave sound."
