American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
After he had ended all his sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
And a certain centurion's {Greek: bondservant.}servant, who was {Or, precious to him Or, honorable with him}dear unto him, was sick and at the point of death.
And when he heard concerning Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews; asking him that he would come and save his {Greek: bondservant.}servant.
And they, when they came to Jesus, besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldest do this for him;
for he loveth our nation, and himself built us our synagogue.
And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not {Greek: sufficient.}worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof:
wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say {Greek: with a word.}the word, and my {Or, boy}servant shall be healed.
For I also am a man set under authority, having under myself soldiers: and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my {Or, boy}servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
And when Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned and said unto the multitude that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the {Or, boy}servant whole.
It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, they shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.
