Luke 7:8 in context

  1. 6Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
  2. 7Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
  3. 8For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
  4. 9When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”
  5. 10Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
