Luke 7:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ So Jesus went with the men. He was getting near the officer’s house when the ·officer [centurion] sent friends to say, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, because I ·am not worthy [do not deserve] to have you come into my house. ⁷ That is why I did not [^Lconsider myself worthy/deserving to] come to you myself. But you only need to ·command it [^Lsay a word], and my servant will be healed. ⁸ [^LFor; Because] I, too, am a man under the authority of others, and I have soldiers under my command. I tell one soldier, ‘Go,’ and he goes. I tell another soldier, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my ·servant [slave], ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
