Luke 7:1

1After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

2A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.

3When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.

4When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,

5for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
