Luke 7:3-5

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³ And when the centurion heard of Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to Him, requesting Him to come and make his bond servant well.

⁴ And when they reached Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that You should do this for him,

⁵ For he loves our nation and he built us our synagogue [at his own expense].
