Luke 7:8

---

← Luke 7:7	Luke 7:8 (KJV)	Luke 7:9 [words of Jesus] →
Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.	For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth [it].	When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
