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

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

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

When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned himself about, and said to the people that followed him, I say to you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well that had been sick.

And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and many people.

Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people of the city were with her.

And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, Weep not.

And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet hath risen among us; and, That God hath visited his people.

And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and afflictions, and of evil spirits; and to many that were blind he gave sight.
