8. I, too, am a man under the authority of other men. And I have soldiers under my command. I tell one soldier, ‘Go,’ and he goes. And I tell another soldier, ‘Come,’ and he comes. And I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and my servant obeys me.”
9. When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. He turned to the crowd following him and said, “I tell you, this is the greatest faith I have seen anywhere, even in Israel.”
10. The men who had been sent to Jesus went back to the house. There they found that the servant was healed.
11. The next day Jesus went to a town called Nain. His followers and a large crowd were traveling with him.
