Luke 7:8 in Context — Luke 7
6 Jésus, étant allé avec eux, n’était guère éloigné de la maison, quand le centenier envoya des amis pour lui dire: Seigneur, ne prends pas tant de peine; car je ne suis pas digne que tu entres sous mon toit.
7 C’est aussi pour cela que je ne me suis pas cru digne d’aller en personne vers toi. Mais dis un mot, et mon serviteur sera guéri.
8 Car, moi qui suis soumis à des supérieurs, j’ai des soldats sous mes ordres; et je dis à l’un: Va! Et il va; à l’autre: Viens! Et il vient; et à mon serviteur: Fais cela! Et il le fait.
9 Lorsque Jésus entendit ces paroles, il admira le centenier, et, se tournant vers la foule qui le suivait, il dit: Je vous le dis, même en Israël je n’ai pas trouvé une aussi grande foi.
10 De retour à la maison, les gens envoyés par le centenier trouvèrent guéri le serviteur qui avait été malade.
