Text reads:... a centurion came asking for help. "Lord, my servant lies at home paralyzed & in terrible suffering." Jesus said, "I will go & heal him." The centurion replied, "Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof—just say the word, & my servant will be healed. For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, 'Go,' & he goes; & that one, 'Come,' & he comes. I say to my servant, 'Do this,' & he does it." When Jesus heard this, he was astonished & said—"I tell you the truth, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. Many will come & will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac & Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping & gnashing of teeth." Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! It will be done just as you believed it would." & his servant was healed at that very hour. Matthew 8:5-13 NIV (paraphrased)
