*
And ,
behold ,
a certain lawyer stood up and tempted Him ,
saying ,
Master ,
what shall I do to inherit eternal life ?
*
He said to him ,
What is written in the law ?
How do you read it ?
*
And answering ,
he said ,
You shall love [
the ]
Lord your God with all your heart ,
and with all your soul ,
and with all your strength ,
and with all your mind ,
and your neighbor as yourself .
*
And He said to him ,
You have answered right ;
do this and you shall live .
*
But he ,
willing to justify himself ,
said to Jesus ,
And who is my neighbor ?
*
And answering ,
Jesus said ,
A certain [
man ]
went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among robbers ,
who stripped him of his clothing and wounded him ,
and departed ,
leaving [
him ]
half dead .
*
And by coincidence a certain priest came down that way and seeing him ,
he passed by on the opposite [
side ].
*
And in the same way a Levite ,
also being at the place ,
coming and seeing [
him ],
he passed on the opposite [
side ].
*
But a certain traveling Samaritan came upon him ,
and seeing him ,
he was filled with pity .
*
And coming near , [
he ]
bound up his wounds ,
pouring on oil and wine ,
and set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn ,
and took care of him .
*
And going on the next day ,
he took out two denarii and gave [
them ]
to the innkeeper ,
and said to him ,
Take care of him .
And whatever more you spend ,
when I come again I will repay you .
*
Then which of these three ,
do you think ,
was neighbor to him who fell among the robbers ?
*
And he said ,
The [
one ]
doing the [
deed of ]
mercy to him .
And Jesus said to him ,
Go and do likewise .
