Matthew 8:5-10

5As Jesus went into Capernaum, a centurion came up to Him, begging Him [for help],

6and saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, with intense and terrible, tormenting pain.”

7Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”

8But the centurion replied to Him, “Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.

9For I also am a man subject to authority [of a higher rank], with soldiers subject to me; and I say to one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.”

10When Jesus heard this, He was amazed and said to those who were following Him, “I tell you truthfully, I have not found such great faith [as this] with anyone in Israel.
