Matthew 8:5-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ And when he had entered into Capharnaum, there came to him a centurion, beseeching him,

⁶ And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, and is grieviously tormented.

⁷ And Jesus saith to him: I will come and heal him.

⁸ And the centurion making answer, said: Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst enter under my roof: but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed.

⁹ For I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers; and I say to this, Go, and he goeth, and to another, Come, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

¹⁰ And Jesus hearing this, marvelled; and said to them that followed him: Amen I say to you, I have not found so great faith in Israel.

¹¹ And I say to you that many shall come from the east and the west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven:

¹² But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into the exterior darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

¹³ And Jesus said to the centurion: Go, and as thou hast believed, so be it done to thee. And the servant was healed at the same hour.
