Immanuel long spoke : and He came to
Capernaum. Capernaum, a town. There
was the chief man: his man sick lay; he
almost dead. The Commandant Immanuel
heard in town to be; he men on message
sent, “ Man my is sick: you come! the
sick heal." The men came; earnestly
asked Immanuel to come. They said,
“The Commandant is a good man." Im-
manuel went them with. They near came
to house.
Commandant his brother sent; he said,
"Do not come; I not am good; do not
thou come to house my. Thou word one
speak; Thou say, 'Let him be well'; at
once he well will be. I am a man of
power: many men me behind follow:
I to one say, 'Thou go'; at once he goes:
I to another say, 'Thou come'; at once
he comes: I another tell, 'Thou this
do'; at once he does it." Immanuel
this heard. He greatly wondered : He
turned round; He said, "I never saw a
man like him. Any besides (him) me
not believes. Only the Commandant me
believes."
