3And he put his hand on him, saying, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away he was made clean.
4And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.
5And when Jesus was come into Capernaum, a certain captain came to him with a request,
6Saying, Lord, my servant is ill in bed at the house, with no power in his body, and in great pain.
7And he said to him, I will come and make him well.
8And the captain in answer said, Lord, I am not good enough for you to come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be made well.
9Because I myself am a man under authority, having under me fighting men; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
