New American Standard Bible 1995

Matthew 8:8-13

8But the centurion said, “1Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just 2say the word, and my 3servant will be healed. 9For I also am a man under 4authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” 10Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith 5with anyone in Israel. 11I say to you that many 6will come from east and west, and 7recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12but 8the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into 9the outer darkness; in that place 10there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; 11it shall be done for you 12as you have believed.” And the 13servant was healed that very 14moment.
