Luke 7:5

Read in context

Luke 7:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.

4 They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,

5 for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”

6 So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.

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.
