Matthew 8:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 For I am a man also under the authority of another, and have soldiers under me: and I say to one, Go, and he goeth: and to another, Come, and he cometh: and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
10 When Jesus heard that, he marveled, and said to them that followed him, Verily, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, even in Israel.
11 But I say unto you, that many shall come from the East and West, and shall [a]sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
