Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Luke 6
⁴⁸ he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock; and when a flood occurred, the torrent burst against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built.
⁴⁹ But the one who has heard and has not acted accordingly, is like a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation; and the torrent burst against it and immediately it collapsed, and the ruin of that house was great."
Luke 7
¹ When He had completed all His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.
² And a centurion’s slave, who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die.
³ When he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders asking Him to come and save the life of his slave.
⁴ When they came to Jesus, they earnestly implored Him, saying, "He is worthy for You to grant this to him;
⁵ for he loves our nation and it was he who built us our synagogue."
⁶ Now Jesus started on His way with them; and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself further, for I am not worthy for You to come under my roof;
⁷ for this reason I did not even consider myself worthy to come to You, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
⁸ For I also am a man placed under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, ’Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ’Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ’Do this!’ and he does it."
⁹ Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled at him, and turned and said to the crowd that was following Him, "I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith."
