147:1.1 On the day before they made ready to go to [[Jerusalem]] for the feast of the [[Passover]], Mangus, a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_centurion centurion], or captain, of the Roman guard stationed at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capernaum Capernaum], came to the rulers of the [[synagogue]], saying: " My [[faithful]] orderly is sick and at the point of [[death]]. Would you, therefore, go to [[Jesus]] in my behalf and beseech him to heal my servant? " The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_centurion Roman captain] did this because he thought the [[Jewish]] [[leaders]] would have more [[influence]] with [[Jesus]]. So the [[elders]] went to see [[Jesus]] and their spokesman said: " Teacher, we [[earnestly]] request you to go over to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capernaum Capernaum] and save the [[favorite]] servant of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_centurion Roman centurion], who is [[worthy]] of your notice because he [[loves]] our [[nation]] and even built us the very [[synagogue]] wherein you have so many times [[spoken]].

147:1.2 And when [[Jesus]] had heard them, he said, " I will go with you. " And as he went with them over to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_centurion centurion]'s house, and before they had entered his yard, the Roman [[soldier]] sent his [[friends]] out to greet [[Jesus]], instructing them to say: " Lord, trouble not yourself to enter my house, for I am not [[worthy]] that you should come under my roof. Neither did I think myself [[worthy]] to come to you; wherefore I sent the [[elders]] of your own people. But I know that you can [[speak]] the [[word]] where you stand and my servant will be healed. For I am myself under the orders of others, and I have [[soldiers]] under me, and I say to this one go, and he goes; to another come, and he comes, and to my servants do this or do that, and they do it.

147:1.3 And when [[Jesus]] heard these [[words]], he turned and said to his [[apostles]] and those who were with them: " I [[marvel]] at the [[belief]] of the [[gentile]]. Verily, verily, I say to you, I have not found so great [[faith]], no, not in [[Israel]]. " [[Jesus]], turning from the house, said, " Let us go hence.

We only know of the [[fact]] of the servant's complete recovery.
