Luke 7:9

7 That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”

When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”

10 And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.

11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples went with Him, accompanied by a large crowd.
