Matthew 8:9-12

New International Version

⁹ For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

¹⁰ When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.^{(A) 11} I say to you that many will come from the east and the west,^(B) and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.^{(C) 12} But the subjects of the kingdom^(D) will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”^(E)
