Luke 7:2-9

2AndG1161 a certainG5100 centurion’sG1543 servantG1401, whoG3739 wasG1510 dearG1784 unto himG846, wasG2192 sickG2560, and readyG3195 to dieG5053.

3AndG1161 when he heardG191 ofG4012 JesusG3588G2424, he sentG649 untoG4314 himG846 the eldersG4245 of the JewsG2453, beseechingG2065 himG846 thatG3704 he would comeG2064 and healG1295 hisG846 servantG3588G1401.

4AndG1161 when they cameG3854 toG4314 JesusG3588G2424, they besoughtG3870 himG846 instantlyG4709, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 he wasG1510 worthyG514 for whomG3739 he should doG3930 thisG3778:

5ForG1063 he lovethG25 ourG1473 nationG3588G1484, andG2532 heG846 hath builtG3618 usG1473 a synagogueG3588G4864.

6ThenG1161 JesusG2424 wentG4198 withG4862 themG846. AndG1161 when heG846 wasG568 nowG2235 notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 the houseG3588G3614, the centurionG3588G1543 sentG3992 friendsG5384 toG4314 himG846, sayingG3004 unto himG846, LordG2962, troubleG4660 notG3361 thyselfG4660: forG1063 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 thatG2443 thou shouldest enterG1525 underG5259 myG1473 roofG3588G4721:

7WhereforeG1352 neitherG3761 thought IG515 myselfG1683 worthyG515 to comeG2064 untoG4314 theeG4771: butG235 sayG3004 in a wordG3056, andG2532 myG1473 servantG3588G3816 shall be healedG2390.

8ForG1063 IG1473 alsoG2532 amG1510 a manG444 setG5021 underG5259 authorityG1849, havingG2192 underG5259 meG1683 soldiersG4757, andG2532 I sayG3004 unto oneG3778, GoG4198, andG2532 he goethG4198; andG2532 to anotherG243, ComeG2064, andG2532 he comethG2064; andG2532 to myG1473 servantG3588G1401, DoG4160 thisG3778, andG2532 he doethG4160 it.

9WhenG1161 JesusG3588G2424 heardG191 these thingsG3778, he marvelledG2296 at himG846, andG2532 turned him aboutG4762, and saidG3004 unto the peopleG3793 that followedG190 himG846, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, I haveG2147 notG3761 foundG2147 so greatG5118 faithG4102, no, notG3761 inG1722 IsraelG2474.
