* And he said unto his disciples : It is , impossible , that occasions of stumbling should not come , notwithstanding , alas ! for him through whom they do come : * It profiteth him , if , a mill-stone , is hung about his neck , and he is cast into the sea , than that he cause , one , of these little ones , to stumble . * Be taking heed to yourselves , If thy brother sin , rebuke him , and , if he repent , forgive him ; * Even if , seven times a day , he sin against thee , and , seven times , turn to thee , saying , I repent , thou shalt forgive him . * And the apostles said unto the Lord Bestow on us faith ! * And the Lord said If ye have faith like a grain of mustard-seed , ye should be saying unto this mulberry-tree Be uprooted ! and be planted in the sea , and it should obey you . * But , who from among you , having , a servant , plowing or keeping sheep , when he hath come in out of the field , will say to him Straightway , come , and recline ; * on the contrary , will not say to him Make somewhat ready , that I may dine , and , girding thyself , be ministering unto me , until I have eaten and drunk ; and , after these things , thou , shalt eat and drink ? * Doth he offer thanks unto the servant , because he hath done the things enjoined ? * Thus , ye also , when ye have done all the things enjoined upon you , say Unprofitable servants , are we , What we were bound to do , we have done ! * And it came to pass , during the journey unto Jerusalem , that , he , was going through the midst of Samaria and Galilee . * And , as he was entering into a certain village , there met him ten leprous men , who stood still , afar off ; * and , they , lifted up a voice , saying Jesus ! Master ! have mercy on us ! * And , beholding , he said unto them Go your way , and show yourselves unto the priests . And it came to pass , as they withdrew , they were cleansed . * But , one from among them , beholding that he was healed , returned , with a loud voice , glorifying God , * and fell prostrate at his feet , giving him thanks ; and , he , was a Samaritan . * And Jesus , answering , said Were not , the ten , cleansed ? but , where , are , the nine ? * Have none been found returning to give glory to God , save this one of another race ? * And he said unto him Arise and go thy way : thy faith , hath saved thee . * And , being questioned by the Pharisees , When cometh the kingdom of God ? he answered them and said The kingdom of God cometh not with narrow watching ; * Neither shall they say Lo , here ! or , There . For lo ! the kingdom of God , is , among you . * But he said unto the disciples There will come dayswhen ye will long to see , one of the days of the Son of Man , and shall not see . * And they will say unto you , Lo there ! or , Lo here ! Do not depart , and do not pursue . * For , just as , the lightning , flashing out of the one part under heaven , unto the other part under heaven , shineth , so , shall be , the Son of Man . * But , first , he must needs suffer , many things , and be rejected by this generation . * And , as it came to pass in the days of Noah , so , will it be , even in the days of the Son of Man : * They were eating , they were drinking , they were marrying , they were being given in marriage , until the day that Noah entered into the ark , and the flood came , and destroyed them all . * In like manner , as it came to pass in the days of Lot , They were eating , they were drinking , they were buying , they were selling , they were planting , they were building , * But , on the day Lot came out from Sodom , it rained fire and brimstone from heaven , and destroyed them all : * According to the same things , will it be on the day the Son of Man is revealed . * In that day , he that shall be on the housetop , and his utensils in the house , let him not go down , to take them away ! And , he that is in the field , in like manner , let him not turn unto the things behind , * Bear in mind the wife of Lot ! Whosoever shall seek to make his life his own , shall lose it , * But , whosoever shall lose it , shall give it a living birth . * I say unto you On the selfsame night , there shall be two men on one bed , the one , shall be taken near , and , the other , left behind ; * There shall be two women grinding together , the one , shall be taken near , and , the other , left behind . * And , answering , they say unto him Where , Lord ? And , he , said unto them Where the body is , there , the vultures also , will be gathered together .
