Luke:17:1-19

*
Then said he unto the disciples ,
It is impossible but that offences will come :
but woe unto him ,
through whom they come !
*
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck ,
and he cast into the sea ,
than that he should offend one of these little ones .
*
Take heed to yourselves :
If thy brother trespass against thee ,
rebuke him ;
and if he repent ,
forgive him .
*
And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day ,
and seven times in a day turn again to thee ,
saying ,
I repent ;
thou shalt forgive him .
*
And the apostles said unto the Lord ,
Increase our faith .
*
And the Lord said ,
If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed ,
ye might say unto this sycamine tree ,
Be thou plucked up by the root ,
and be thou planted in the sea ;
and it should obey you .
*
But which of you ,
having a servant plowing or feeding cattle ,
will say unto him by and by ,
when he is come from the field ,
Go and sit down to meat ?
*
And will not rather say unto him ,
Make ready wherewith I may sup ,
and gird thyself ,
and serve me ,
till I have eaten and drunken ;
and afterward thou shalt eat and drink ?
*
Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him ?
I trow not .
*
So likewise ye ,
when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you ,
say ,
We are unprofitable servants :
we have done that which was our duty to do .
*
And it came to pass ,
as he went to Jerusalem ,
that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee .
*
And as he entered into a certain village ,
there met him ten men that were lepers ,
which stood afar off :
*
And they lifted up their voices ,
and said ,
Jesus ,
Master ,
have mercy on us .
*
And when he saw them ,
he said unto them ,
Go shew yourselves unto the priests .
And it came to pass ,
that ,
as they went ,
they were cleansed .
*
And one of them ,
when he saw that he was healed ,
turned back ,
and with a loud voice glorified God ,
*
And fell down on his face at his feet ,
giving him thanks :
and he was a Samaritan .
*
And Jesus answering said ,
Were there not ten cleansed ?
but where are the nine ?
*
There are not found that returned to give glory to God ,
save this stranger .
*
And he said unto him ,
Arise ,
go thy way :
thy faith hath made thee whole .
