*
Then Jesus answered and said : "
A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho ,
and encountered bandits ,
who after having stripped him of his clothing and having wounded him ,
departed ,
leaving [
him ]
half dead .
*
Now by coincidence a certain priest was coming down that road .
And when he saw him ,
he passed by on the opposite side .
*
Likewise a Levite ,
arriving at the place ,
came and saw ,
and passed by on the opposite side .
*
But a certain Samaritan ,
as he traveled ,
came by him ;
and when he saw him ,
he was moved with compassion .
*
And coming to him ,
he bandaged his wounds ,
pouring on oil and wine ;
and putting him on his own animal ,
he brought him to an inn ,
and took care of him .
*
On the next day ,
when he departed ,
he took out two denarii ,
and gave [
them ]
to the innkeeper ,
and said to him , '
Take care of him ;
and whatever you spend in addition ,
when I come back ,
I will repay you .'
*
So which of these three does it seem to you proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the bandits ?"
*
And he said , "
the [
one ]
who showed mercy to him ."
Then Jesus said to him , "
Go and do likewise ."
