Luke 7:7-13

⁷That was why I did not even venture to come to you myself; but speak, and let my manservant be cured.

⁸For I myself am a man under the orders of others, with soldiers under me; and if I say to one of them ‘Go,’ he goes, and to another ‘Come,’ he comes, and to my slave ‘Do this,’ he does it.”

⁹Jesus was surprised to hear these words from him; and, turning to the crowd which was following him, he said, “I tell you, nowhere in Israel have I met with such faith as this!”

¹⁰And, when the messengers returned to the house, they found the slave recovered.

¹¹Shortly after, Jesus went to a town called Nain, his disciples and a great crowd going with him.

¹²Just as he approached the gate of the town, there was a dead man being carried out for burial — an only son, and his mother was a widow. A large number of the people of the town were with her.

¹³When he saw her, the Master was moved with compassion for her, and he said to her, “Do not weep.”
