6 “Sir, my servant is lying at home paralyzed and in terrible pain.”

11 I tell all of you, many will come from east and west and will feast with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom from heaven.
12 But the unfaithful heirs of that kingdom will be thrown into the darkness outside. In that place there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”
13“Go,” Jesus told the centurion, “and it will be done for you, just as you have believed.” And his servant was healed that very hour.
