'Servant' in the Bible

"Sir," he said, "my servant at home is lying ill with paralysis, and is suffering great pain."

"Sir," replied the Captain, "I am not a fit person to receive you under my roof: merely say the word, and my servant will be cured.

And Jesus said to the Captain, "Go, and just as you have believed, so be it for you." And the servant recovered precisely at that time.

"The learner is never superior to his teacher, and the servant is never superior to his master.

Enough for the learner to be on a level with his teacher, and for the servant to be on a level with his master. If they have called the master of the house Baal-zebul, how much more will they slander his servants?

"This is My servant whom I have chosen, My dearly loved One in whom My soul takes pleasure. I will put My spirit upon Him, and He will announce justice to the nations.

The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at his feet and entreated him. "'Only give me time,' he said, 'and I will pay you the whole.'

But no sooner had that servant gone out, than he met with one of his fellow servants who owed him 100 shillings; and seizing him by the throat and nearly strangling him he exclaimed, "'Pay me all you owe.'

At once his master called him and said, "'Wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you entreated me:

Not so shall it be among you; but whoever desires to be great among you shall be your servant,

He who is the greatest among you shall be your servant;

"Who therefore is the loyal and intelligent servant to whom his master has entrusted the control of his household to give them their rations at the appointed time?

Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes shall find so doing!

But if the man, being a bad servant, should say in his heart, 'My master is a long time in coming,'

the master of that servant will arrive on a day when he is not expecting him and at an hour of which he has not been informed;

"'You have done well, good and trustworthy servant,' replied his master; 'you have been trustworthy in the management of a little, I will put you in charge of much: share your master's joy.'

"'Good and trustworthy servant, you have done well,' his master replied; 'you have been trustworthy in the management of a little, I will put you in charge of much: share your master's joy.'

"'You wicked and slothful servant,' replied his master, 'did you know that I reap where I have not sown, and garner what I have not winnowed?

But as for this worthless servant, put him out into the darkness outside: *there* will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.'

But one of those with Jesus drew his sword and struck the High Priest's servant, cutting off his ear.
