Pure Cambridge Edition selected
¶ And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

    1NOW when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

    2And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.

    3And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.

    4And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:

    5For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.

    6Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:

    7Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.

    8For 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.

    9When 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.

  4. Acts 10:1–33Rank 4 from verse 5
    Open

    1THERE was a certain man in Cæsarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,

    2A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

    3He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

    4And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

    5And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:

    6He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.

    7And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;

    8And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.

    9¶ On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:

    10And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

    11And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

    12Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

    13And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

    14But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

    15And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

    16This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

    17Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate,

    18And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.

    19¶ While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.

    20Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.

    21Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?

    22And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.

    23Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

    24And the morrow after they entered into Cæsarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.

    25And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.

    26But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

    27And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.

    28And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

    29Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?

    30And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

    31And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

    32Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.

    33Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
