LUKE 7:1-10

[1] After Jesus had finished teaching the people, he went to Capernaum. [2] In that town an army officer's servant was sick and about to die. The officer liked this servant very much. [3] And when he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish leaders to ask him to come and heal the servant. [4] The leaders went to Jesus and begged him to do something. They said, "This man deserves your help! [5] He loves our nation and even built us a meeting place." [6] So Jesus went with them. When Jesus wasn't far from the house, the officer sent some friends to tell him, "Lord, don't go to any trouble for me! I am not good enough for you to come into my house. [7] And I am certainly not worthy to come to you. Just say the word, and my servant will get well.
