rsv - Luke:17:1-10

rsv@Luke:17:1 @ And he said to his disciples, "Temptations to sin are sure to come; but woe to him by whom they come!

rsv@Luke:17:2 @ It would be better for him if a millstone were hung round his neck and he were cast into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.

rsv@Luke:17:3 @ Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him;

rsv@Luke:17:4 @ and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, and says, `I repent,' you must forgive him."

rsv@Luke:17:5 @ The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!"

rsv@Luke:17:6 @ And the Lord said, "If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this sycamine tree, `Be rooted up, and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.

rsv@Luke:17:7 @ "Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, `Come at once and sit down at table'?

rsv@Luke:17:8 @ Will he not rather say to him, `Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterward you shall eat and drink'?

rsv@Luke:17:9 @ Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded?

rsv@Luke:17:10 @ So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, `We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.'"
