⁵ When Jesus entered Capernaum, a Roman commander came to him. He asked Jesus for help. ⁶ "Lord," he said, "my servant lies at home and can't move. He is suffering terribly." ⁷ Jesus said, "I will go and heal him." ⁸ The commander replied, "Lord, I am not good enough to have you come into my house. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. ⁹ I myself am a man under authority. And I have soldiers who obey my orders. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes. I tell that one, 'Come,' and he comes. I say to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it." ¹⁰ When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. He said to those following him, "What I'm about to tell you is true. In Israel I have not found anyone whose faith is so strong. ¹¹ "I say to you that many will come from the east and the west. They will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of heaven. They will sit with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. ¹² But those who think they belong to the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness. There they will sob and grind their teeth." ¹³ Then Jesus said to the Roman commander, "Go! It will be done just as you believed it would." And his servant was healed at that very hour.
