The Faith of the Centurion

Matthew 8:5-13
5When he entered Capernaum, a centurion came near to him, pleading with him. 6And saying, "Lord, my child is lying in the house paralyzed, suffering terribly." 7And he says to him, "I, coming, will heal him." 8And answering, the centurion said, "Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say with a word and my child will be healed." 9For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under myself, 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. 10When Jesus heard, he marveled and said to those following, "Amen, I say to you, with no one have I found so great faith in Israel." 11I say to you that many from east and west will come and will recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens. 12But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth. 13And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; as you believed, let it be done for you." And the child was healed in that hour.
