4 But they, being come to Jesus, besought him diligently, saying, He is worthy to whom thou shouldest grant this,
5 for he loves our nation, and himself has built the synagogue for us.
6 And Jesus went with them. But already, when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent to him friends, saying to him, Lord, do not trouble thyself, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.
7 Wherefore neither did I count myself worthy to come to thee. But say by a word and my servant shall be healed.
8 For *I* also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does [it].
