Luke 10:18-39 in English

¹⁸ And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.

²⁰ Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.

²¹ In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.

²² All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, save the Father; and who the Father is, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal him.

²³ And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

²⁴ for I say unto you, that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them not.

²⁵ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and made trial of him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁶ And he said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.

²⁸ And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

³⁰ Jesus made answer and said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² And in like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion,

³⁴ and came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on them oil and wine; and he set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ And on the morrow he took out two shillings, and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, I, when I come back again, will repay thee.

³⁶ Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbor unto him that fell among the robbers?

³⁷ And he said, He that showed mercy on him. And Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ Now as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at the Lord’s feet, and heard his word.

¹⁸ And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰ Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

²¹ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

²² All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.

²³ And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

²⁴ For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

²⁵ And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁶ He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸ And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

³⁰ And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

³⁴ And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

³⁶ Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

³⁷ And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.

¹⁸ And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰ Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

³⁸ Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

¹⁸ And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.

²⁰ Howbeit in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.

²¹ In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.

³⁶ Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbour unto him that fell among the robbers?

³⁷ And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. And Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ Now as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at the Lord’s feet, and heard his word.

¹⁸ Jesus replied, “ When those demons were obeying you, because God had enabled you to defeat them, it was as though MET I saw Satan fall from heaven as suddenly and quickly as lightning strikes.

¹⁹ Listen! I have given you authority so that if you oppose evil spirits MET they will not hurt you. I have given you authority to defeat our enemy, Satan. Nothing shall hurt you.

²⁰ But although you can rejoice that evil spirits obey you, you should rejoice more that your names have been written {that God has written your names} in heaven, because you will be with God forever.”

²¹ At that time the Holy Spirit caused Jesus to be very happy. He said, “Father, you (sg) rule over everything in heaven and on the earth! Some people think that they are wise because they are well-educated. But I thank you that you have prevented them from knowing these things. Instead, you have revealed them to people who accept your truth as readily MET as little children do. Yes, Father, you have done that because it seemed good to you to do so.”

²² Jesus also said to the 72 disciples, “ God, my Father, has revealed to me all I need to know and the power I need for my work. Only my Father knows who I really am. Furthermore, only I and those people to whom I wish to reveal him know what God my Father is like.”

²³ Then when Jesus' disciples were alone with him, he turned toward them and said, “ God is pleased with you SYN who have seen the things that I have done!

²⁴ I want you to know that many prophets and kings who lived long ago desired to see the things that you are seeing me do, but these things did not happen then. They longed to hear the things that you have been hearing me say, but these things were not revealed to them then.”

²⁵ One day as Jesus was teaching people, a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that God gave Moses. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live with God forever?”

²⁶ Jesus said to him, “You (sg) have read RHQ what Moses has written in the laws that God gave him. What did Moses write about living forever?”

²⁷ The man replied, “ He wrote that we (inc) must love the Lord our God. We must show that by what we feel and by what we do and by what we think. He also wrote that we must love people that we come in contact with as much as we love ourselves.”

²⁸ Jesus replied, “You (sg) have answered your question correctly. If you do all that continually, you will live with God forever.”

²⁹ But the man wanted to defend the way he acted toward people that he came in contact with (OR, to defend why he had asked a question that Jesus answered so simply). So he said to Jesus, “Which people that I come in contact with should I love?”

³⁰ Jesus replied by telling him this illustration: “A Jewish man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away most of the man's clothes and everything else that he had, and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him.

³¹ It happened that a Jewish priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, instead of helping him, he passed by on the other side of the road.

³² Similarly, a man who worked in the temple in Jerusalem came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side of the road.

³³ Then a man from Samaria province came along that road to where the man was lying. People from Samaria despise Jews. But when he saw that man, he pitied him.

³⁴ He went over to him and put some olive oil and wine on his wounds to help heal them. He wound strips of cloth around the wounds. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him.

³⁵ The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you (sg) spend more than this amount to care for him, I will pay you back when I return.’”

³⁶ Then Jesus said, “Three people saw the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them acted in a loving way toward that man?”

³⁷ The man who studied the Scriptures replied, “The one who acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus said to him, “You (sg) go and act like that toward everyone whom you can help!”

³⁸ As Jesus and his disciples continued to travel, they entered a village near Jerusalem. A woman whose name was Martha invited them to come to her house.

³⁹ Her younger sister, whose name was Mary, sat near Jesus. She was listening to what he was teaching.

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.

²⁰ Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

²¹ In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”

²² Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”

²³ Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,

²⁴ for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”

²⁵ Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”

²⁷ He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

²⁸ He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,

³⁴ came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’

³⁶ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”

³⁷ He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

³⁸ As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

³⁶ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbour to him who fell amongst the robbers?”

³⁷ He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

³⁸ As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.

¹⁸ And he said, I was watching for Satan, falling from heaven like a star.

¹⁹ See, I have given you power to put your feet on snakes and evil beasts, and over all the strength of him who is against you: and nothing will do you damage.

²⁰ Do not be glad, however, because you have power over spirits, but because your names are recorded in heaven.

²¹ In that same hour he was full of joy in the Holy Spirit and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children: for so, O Father, it was pleasing in your eyes.

²² All things have been given to me by my Father: and no one has knowledge of the Son, but only the Father: and of the Father, but only the Son, and he to whom the Son will make it clear.

²³ And, turning to the disciples, he said privately, Happy are the eyes which see the things you see:

²⁴ For I say to you that numbers of prophets and kings have had a desire to see the things which you see, and have not seen them, and to have knowledge of the things which have come to your ears, and they had it not.

²⁵ And a certain teacher of the law got up and put him to the test, saying, Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

²⁶ And he said to him, What does the law say, in your reading of it?

²⁷ And he, answering, said, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and for your neighbour as for yourself.

²⁸ And he said, You have given the right answer: do this and you will have life.

²⁹ But he, desiring to put himself in the right, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

³⁰ And Jesus, answering him, said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he got into the hands of thieves, who took his clothing and gave him cruel blows, and when they went away, he was half dead.

³¹ And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he went by on the other side.

³² And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.

³³ But a certain man of Samaria, journeying that way, came where he was, and when he saw him, he was moved with pity for him,

³⁴ And came to him and put clean linen round his wounds, with oil and wine; and he put him on his beast and took him to a house and took care of him.

³⁵ And the day after he took two pennies and gave them to the owner of the house and said, Take care of him; and if this money is not enough, when I come again I will give you whatever more is needed.

³⁶ Which of these three men, in your opinion, was neighbour to the man who came into the hands of thieves?

³⁷ And he said, The one who had mercy on him. And Jesus said, Go and do the same.

³⁸ Now, while they were on their way, he came to a certain town; and a woman named Martha took him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister, by name Mary, who took her seat at the Lord's feet and gave attention to his words.

¹⁸ And he said to them, I beheld Satan as lightning falling out of heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you the power of treading upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall in anywise injure you.

²⁰ Yet in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subjected to you, but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.

²¹ In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit and said, I praise thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, that thou hast hid these things from wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes: yea, Father, for thus has it been well-pleasing in thy sight.

²² All things have been delivered to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, and who the Father is but the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son is pleased to reveal him.

²³ And having turned to the disciples privately he said, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see.

²⁴ For I say to you that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things which ye behold, and did not see them; and to hear the things which ye hear, and did not hear them.

²⁵ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up tempting him, and saying, Teacher, having done what, shall I inherit life eternal?

²⁶ And he said to him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ But he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thine understanding; and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸ And he said to him, Thou hast answered right: this do and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he, desirous of justifying himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

³⁰ And Jesus replying said, A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of robbers, who also, having stripped him and inflicted wounds, went away leaving him in a half-dead state.

³¹ And a certain priest happened to go down that way, and seeing him, passed on on the opposite side;

³² and in like manner also a Levite, being at the spot, came and looked at him and passed on on the opposite side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan journeying came to him, and seeing him, was moved with compassion,

³⁴ and came up to him and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine; and having put him on his own beast, took him to the inn and took care of him.

³⁵ And on the morrow as he left, taking out two denarii he gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, Take care of him, and whatsoever thou shalt expend more, I will render to thee on my coming back.

³⁶ Which now of these three seems to thee to have been neighbour of him who fell into the hands of the robbers?

³⁷ And he said, He that shewed him mercy. And Jesus said to him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ And it came to pass as they went that he entered into a certain village; and a certain woman, Martha by name, received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who also, having sat down at the feet of Jesus was listening to his word.

¹⁸ And he said to them: I saw Satan like lightening falling from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I have given you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall hurt you.

²⁰ But yet rejoice not in this, that spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice in this, that your names are written in heaven.

²¹ In that same hour, he rejoiced in the Holy Ghost, and said: I confess to thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to little ones. Yea, Father, for so it hath seemed good in thy sight.

²² All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and to whom the Son will reveal him.

²³ And turning to his disciples, he said: Blessed are the eyes that see the things which you see.

²⁴ For I say to you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things that you see, and have not seen them; and to hear the things that you hear, and have not heard them.

²⁵ And behold a certain lawyer stood up, tempting him, and saying, Master, what must I do to possess eternal life?

²⁶ But he said to him: What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ He answering, said: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind: and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸ And he said to him: Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he willing to justify himself, said to Jesus: And who is my neighbour?

³⁰ And Jesus answering, said: A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, who also stripped him, and having wounded him went away, leaving him half dead.

³¹ And it chanced, that a certain priest went down the same way: and seeing him, passed by.

³² In like manner also a Levite, when he was near the place and saw him, passed by.

³³ But a certain Samaritan being on his journey, came near him; and seeing him, was moved with compassion.

³⁴ And going up to him, bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and setting him upon his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ And the next day he took out two pence, and gave to the host, and said: Take care of him; and whatsoever thou shalt spend over and above, I, at my return, will repay thee.

³⁶ Which of these three, in thy opinion, was neighbour to him that fell among the robbers?

³⁷ But he said: He that shewed mercy to him. And Jesus said to him: Go, and do thou in like manner.

³⁸ Now it came to pass as they went, that he entered into a certain town: and a certain woman named Martha, received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who sitting also at the Lord’s feet, heard his word.

¹⁸ And He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning out of heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice because your names have been written in heaven.”

²¹ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to babes. Yes, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.”

²² And turning to His disciples He said, “All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.”

²³ And turning to His disciples He said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see what you see;

²⁴ for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and they did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and they did not hear it.”

²⁵ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”

²⁷ So he answered and said, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’ ”

²⁸ And He said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this and you shall live.”

²⁹ But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ 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.

³¹ Now by coincidence a certain priest was coming down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side.

³² Likewise a Levite, arriving at the place, came and saw, and passed by on the opposite side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came by him; and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion.

³⁴ 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.

³⁵ 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.’

³⁶ So which of these three does it seem to you proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the bandits?”

³⁷ And he said, “the one who showed mercy to him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

³⁸ Now it came to pass as they traveled, that He entered into a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.

³⁹ And the woman had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet and was listening to His word.

¹⁸ So He said to them: “I watched Satan fall like lightning out of heaven.

¹⁹ Take note, I am giving you the authority to trample on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing at all may harm you.

²⁰ However, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”

²¹ In that same hour Jesus exulted in His spirit and said: “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to ‘infants’. Yes, Father, because it pleased you to do so.”

²² And turning to the disciples He said: “All things have been entrusted to me by my Father; also, no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and to whomever the Son may choose to reveal Him.”

²³ Then turning to His disciples privately He said: “Blessed are the eyes that are seeing the things that you see;

²⁴ for I say to you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you are seeing but did not, and to hear what you are hearing but did not.”

²⁵ And then, a certain lawyer stood up to test Him, saying, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ So He said to him: “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?”

²⁷ In answer 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.”

²⁸ So He said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this and you will live!”

²⁹ But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ By way of reply Jesus said: “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and as it chanced he ran into robbers, who after having stripped and wounded him, departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ Now by coincidence a certain priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.

³² So too, a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came by there, and upon seeing him was moved with compassion;

³⁴ and going to him he bound up his wounds, applying oil and wine. Then he placed him on his own mount, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and should you spend more, I will repay you when I return.’

³⁶ So which of these three, would you say, was ‘neighbor’ to him who ran into the robbers?”

³⁷ He said, “The one who showed mercy on him.” So Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise!”

³⁸ Now it happened as they traveled that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who actually sat at Jesus' feet listening to His words.

¹⁸ Jesus replied, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ Yes, I have given you power to tread on snakes and scorpions, and to overcome all the enemy's strength, and nothing will harm you.

²⁰ But don't take delight that the spirits do what you tell them—just be glad that your names are written in heaven.”

²¹ At that moment Jesus was filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for you hid these things from the wise and clever people and revealed them to children! Yes, Father, you were pleased to do it in this way.

²² My Father has handed over everything to me. No one understands the Son except the Father, and no one understands the Father except the Son, and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”

²³ When they were by themselves Jesus turned to the disciples and told them, “Those who see what you're seeing should be really happy!

²⁴ I tell you, many prophets and kings have wanted to see what you're seeing, but they didn't see, and wanted to hear the things you're hearing, but didn't hear.”

²⁵ Once an expert in religious law stood up and tried to trap Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “What do I have to do to gain eternal life?”

²⁶ “What is written in the law? How do you read it?” asked Jesus.

²⁷ “You shall love the Lord your God with your whole heart, and your whole spirit, and your whole strength, and your whole mind; and love your neighbor as yourself,” the man replied.

²⁸ “You're right,” Jesus told him. “Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹ But the man wanted to vindicate himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ Jesus replied, saying, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho. He was attacked by robbers who stripped him and beat him, and left him for dead.

³¹ It so happened that a priest was going the same way. He saw the man, but he passed by on the other side of the road.

³² Then a Levite came along. But when he got to the place and saw the man, he also passed by on the other side.

³³ Finally a Samaritan man came along. As he passed by, he saw the man and felt sorry for him.

³⁴ He went over and treated the man's wounds with oil and wine, and bandaged them. Then he placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn where he took care of him.

³⁵ The next day he gave two denarii to the innkeeper and told him, ‘Take care of him, and if you spend more than this, I'll pay you back when I return.’

³⁶ Which one of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who was attacked by robbers?”

³⁷ “The one who showed him kindness,” the man replied. “Go and do the same,” Jesus told him.

³⁸ While they were on their way, Jesus arrived at a village, and a woman called Martha invited him to her home.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching.

¹⁸ And he said vnto them, I sawe Satan, like lightening, fall downe from heauen.

¹⁹ Beholde, I giue vnto you power to treade on Serpents, and Scorpions, and ouer all the power of the enemie, and nothing shall hurt you.

²⁰ Neuerthelesse, in this reioyce not, that the spirits are subdued vnto you: but rather reioyce, because your names are written in heauen.

²¹ That same houre reioyced Iesus in the spirit, and said, I confesse vnto thee, Father, Lord of heauen and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and vnderstanding, and hast reueiled them to babes: euen so, Father, because it so pleased thee.

²² All things are giuen me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Sonne is, but the Father: neither who the Father is, saue the Sonne, and he to whom the Sonne will reueile him.

²³ And he turned to his disciples, and said secretly, Blessed are the eyes, which see that ye see.

²⁴ For I tell you that many Prophets and Kings haue desired to see those things, which ye see, and haue not seene them: and to heare those things which ye heare, and haue not heard them.

²⁵ Then beholde, a certaine Lawyer stoode vp, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I doe, to inherite eternall life?

²⁶ And he saide vnto him, What is written in the Lawe? howe readest thou?

²⁷ And he answered, and saide, Thou shalt loue thy Lord God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy strength, and with all thy thought, and thy neighbour as thy selfe.

²⁸ Then he said vnto him, Thou hast answered right: this doe, and thou shalt liue.

²⁹ But he willing to iustifie himselfe, said vnto Iesus, Who is then my neighbour?

³⁰ And Iesus answered, and saide, A certaine man went downe from Hierusalem to Iericho, and fell among theeues, and they robbed him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leauing him halfe dead.

³¹ Nowe so it fell out, that there came downe a certaine Priest that same way, and when he sawe him, he passed by on the other side.

³² And likewise also a Leuite, when he was come neere to the place, went and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

³³ Then a certaine Samaritane, as he iourneyed, came neere vnto him, and when he sawe him, he had compassion on him,

³⁴ And went to him, and bound vp his wounds, and powred in oyle and wine, and put him on his owne beast, and brought him to an Inne, and made prouision for him.

³⁵ And on the morowe when he departed, he tooke out two pence, and gaue them to the hoste, and said vnto him, Take care of him, and whatsoeuer thou spendest more, when I come againe, I will recompense thee.

³⁶ Which nowe of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour vnto him that fell among the theeues?

³⁷ And he saide, He that shewed mercie on him. Then said Iesus vnto him, Goe, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ Nowe it came to passe, as they went, that he entred into a certaine towne, and a certaine woman named Martha, receiued him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Marie, which also sate at Iesus feete, and heard his preaching.

¹⁸ And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰ Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

²¹ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

²² All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.

²³ And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

²⁴ for I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

²⁵ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁶ He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸ And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

³⁰ And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

³⁴ and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

³⁶ Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

³⁷ And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.

¹⁸ And he said to them, I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning.

¹⁹ Lo! I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the might of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰ Yet rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names have been written in heaven.

²¹ In that hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, thou didst reveal them to babes. Yea, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. And turning to the disciples he said,

²² All things were delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom it is the will of the Son to reveal him.

²³ And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye are seeing.

²⁴ For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye are seeing, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye are hearing, and heard them not.

²⁵ And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life?

²⁶ And he said to him, What is written in the Law? How readest thou?

²⁷ And he answering said “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.”

²⁸ And he said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

³⁰ Jesus answering said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers; who after stripping him of his raiment, and wounding him, departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ And by chance a certain priest was going down on that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² And in like manner also a Levite, having arrived at the place, came and saw, and passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he was journeying, came where he was, and when he saw him, had compassion,

³⁴ and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and setting him on his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ And the next day, he took out two denaries and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatever thou spendest more, I, when I come back, will repay thee.

³⁶ Which of these three, dost thou think, was neighbor to him that fell among the robbers?

³⁷ And he said, He that took pity on him. Then said Jesus to him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ And it came to pass, as they journeyed, that he entered into a certain village; and a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who sat down at the feet of the Lord, and listened to his word.

¹⁸ And Jesus replied, “I have had visions of Satan, fallen, like lightning from the heavens.

¹⁹ Remember, I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions, and to meet all the strength of the Enemy. Nothing will ever harm you in any way.

²⁰ Yet do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names have been enrolled in heaven.”

²¹ At that same time, moved to exultation by the Holy Spirit, Jesus said: “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though you have hidden these things from the wise and learnt, you have revealed them to the childlike! Yes, Father, I thank you that this has seemed good to you.

²² Everything has been committed to me by my Father; nor does anyone know who the Son is, except the Father, or who the Father is, except the Son and those to whom the Son may choose to reveal him.”

²³ Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said to them alone, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you are seeing;

²⁴ for, I tell you, many prophets and kings wished for the sight of the things which you are seeing, yet never heard them.”

²⁵ Just then a Student of the Law came forward to test Jesus further. “Teacher,” he said, “what must I do if I am to gain eternal life?”

²⁶ “What is said in the Law?” answered Jesus. “What do you read there?”

²⁷ His reply was — “You must 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 neighbour as you love yourself.”

²⁸ “You have answered right,” said Jesus; “do that, and you will live.”

²⁹ But the man, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbour?”

³⁰ To which Jesus replied, “A man was once going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him of everything, and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead.

³¹ As it chanced, a priest was going down by that road. He saw the man, but passed by on the opposite side.

³² A Levite, too, did the same; he came up to the spot, but, when he saw the man, passed by on the opposite side.

³³ But a Samaritan, travelling that way, came upon the man, and, when he saw him, he was moved with compassion.

³⁴ He went to him and bound up his wounds, dressing them with oil and wine, and then put him on his own mule, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Take care of him,’ he said, ‘and whatever more you may spend I will myself repay you on my way back.’

³⁶ Now which, do you think, of these three men,” asked Jesus, “proved himself a neighbour to the man who fell into the robbers' hands?”

³⁷ “The one that took pity on him,” was the answer; at which Jesus said, “Go and do the same yourself.”

³⁸ As they continued their journey, Jesus came to a village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him to her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the Master's feet, and listened to his teaching;

¹⁸ And Jesus replied, “I have had visions of Satan, fallen, like lightning from the heavens.

¹⁹ Remember, I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions, and to meet all the strength of the Enemy. Nothing will ever harm you in any way.

²⁰ Yet do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names have been enrolled in heaven.”

²¹ At that same time, moved to exultation by the Holy Spirit, Jesus said: “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, you have revealed them to the childlike! Yes, Father, I thank you that this has seemed good to you.

²² Everything has been committed to me by my Father; nor does anyone know who the Son is, except the Father, or who the Father is, except the Son and those to whom the Son may choose to reveal him.”

²³ Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said to them alone, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you are seeing;

²⁴ for, I tell you, many prophets and kings wished for the sight of the things which you are seeing, yet never heard them.”

²⁵ Just then a Student of the Law came forward to test Jesus further. “Teacher,” he said, “what must I do if I am to gain eternal life?”

²⁶ “What is said in the Law?” answered Jesus. “What do you read there?”

²⁷ His reply was — “You must 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 you love yourself.”

²⁸ “You have answered right,” said Jesus; “do that, and you will live.”

²⁹ But the man, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ To which Jesus replied, “A man was once going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him of everything, and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead.

³¹ As it chanced, a priest was going down by that road. He saw the man, but passed by on the opposite side.

³² A Levite, too, did the same; he came up to the spot, but, when he saw the man, passed by on the opposite side.

³⁵ The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Take care of him,’ he said, ‘and whatever more you may spend I will myself repay you on my way back.’

³⁶ Now which, do you think, of these three men,” asked Jesus, “proved himself a neighbor to the man who fell into the robbers' hands?”

³⁷ “The one that took pity on him,” was the answer; at which Jesus said, “Go and do the same yourself.”

³⁸ As they continued their journey, Jesus came to a village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him to her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the Master's feet, and listened to his teaching;

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan Adversary having fallen like lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.

²⁰ Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

²¹ In that same hour Yeshua Salvation rejoiced in Ruach haKodesh Spirit of the Holiness, and said, “I thank you, O Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”

²² Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by 'Avi ·my Father·. No one knows who the Son is, except the Abba Father, and who the Abba Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”

²³ Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,

²⁴ for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”

²⁵ Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ He said to him, “What is written in the Torah ·Teaching·? How do you read it?”

²⁷ He answered, “You shall have agapao ·total devotion love· to MarYah Master Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

²⁸ He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Yeshua Salvation, “Who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ Yeshua Salvation answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem City of peace to Jericho Fragrant, Moon, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² In the same way a Levite Descendant of United with also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan person from Watch-mountain, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,

³⁴ came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii (2 days wages), and gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I teshuvah ·completely return·.’

³⁶ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”

³⁷ He said, “He who showed eleos ·merciful compassion in action· on him.” Then Yeshua Salvation said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

³⁸ As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha Lady mistress, Strong bitterness received him into her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary Rebellion, who also sat at Yeshua Salvation's feet, and heard his word.

²⁵ One day a man came to Jesus and tried to get him to say something wrong, so he asked a hard question. He was a man that knew a lot about the Jewish laws. He asked Jesus, “What can I do so that I will live a good life for ever, and never die?”

²⁶ Jesus said, “You know God’s laws, and you read them all the time. What do you reckon they say?”

²⁷ The man answered, “One law says this, ‘You have to love God properly, not just a little bit. You have to love God from right inside yourself. You have to love God in the way you feel, and in the way you think. And you have to love God in the way you do things.’ And another law says this, ‘You have to love the other people around you just as much as you love yourself.’”

²⁸ Jesus said, “You are right. Do what those laws say and you will live real good.”

²⁹ But the man wanted to show that he did the right thing when he asked that question, so he said, “Who are the other people around me?”

³⁰ Jesus answered that question by telling this picture story. He said, “A man was going down the road from Jerusalem city to the town called Jericho. About half way along that road some bad men grabbed him. They beat him up, and they took everything he had, even his clothes, and then they ran away. They left him lying there, half dead.

³¹ After that, a man that looked after the Jewish ceremonies was walking down that road. He saw that man lying there, but he didn’t do anything to help him. He went over to the other side of the road to go past him, and he kept going down the road.

³² After that a man that helped in the Jewish ceremonies came along the road. He looked at the man lying there, then he went to the other side of the road to go past him, and he kept going down the road.

³³ Then a man from Samaria country came along the road. He was riding on a donkey. He saw the man lying there and he felt sorry for him.

³⁴ He went to that man and helped him. He treated the places where he was bleeding. He put wine and oil on them, and bandaged them, to help them get better. Then he lifted him up and put him on his donkey and took him to a hotel, and they both stayed there that night.

³⁵ The next day he paid a lot of money to the boss of the hotel, and said, ‘This is for you to keep this man here and look after him till he gets better. If it costs more than this, I’ll fix you up for the rest of the cost next time I come here.’”

³⁶ Then Jesus said to the law man, “There were 3 people that saw that man on the road, which one of them treated him like he was in his family?”

³⁷ The law man said, “I reckon it was the one that felt sorry for that man and helped him.” Jesus said, “You are right. So you have to always do that same kind of thing for other people.”

³⁸ Jesus and his followers kept going along the road to Jerusalem, and they came to a community, and a woman called Martha asked him to come and have a feed, so he went with her into her house.

³⁹ Her sister, called Mary, sat down near Jesus. He was teaching the people about God, and Mary just sat there listening to everything he said.

¹⁸ And he sayde vnto them: I sawe satan as it had bene lightenyng faule doune from heaven.

¹⁹ Beholde I geve vnto you power to treade on serpetes and scorpions and over all maner power of the enimye and no thinge shall hurte you.

²⁰ Neverthelesse in this reioyse not that the spretes are vnder youre power: but reioyse be cause youre names are wrytten in heaven.

²¹ That same tyme reioysed Iesus in the sprete and sayde: I confesse vnto the father Lorde of heaven and erth that thou hast hyd these thynges from the wyse and prudent and hast opened them to the babes. Even so father for soo pleased it the.

²² All thinges are geven me of my father. And no man knoweth who the sonne is but the father: nether who the father is save the sonne and he to who the sonne wyll shewe him.

²³ And he turned to his disciples and sayde secretly: Happy are the eyes which se that ye se.

²⁴ For I tell you that many prophetes and kynges have desired to se those thinges which ye se and have not sene them: and to heare those thinges which ye heare and have not hearde them.

²⁵ And beholde a certayne Lawere stode vp and tempted him sayinge: Master what shall I do to inheret eternall life?

²⁶ He sayd vnto him: What is written in the lawe? How redest thou?

²⁷ And he answered and sayde: Loue thy Lorde God with all thy hert and with all thy soule and with all thy stregthe and with all thy mynde: and thy neghbour as thy sylfe.

²⁸ And he sayde vnto him: Thou hast answered right. This do and thou shalt live.

²⁹ He willinge to iustifie him silfe sayde vnto Iesus: Who is then my neghbour?

³⁰ Iesus answered and sayde: A certayne man descended from Hierusalem into Hierico and fell in to the hondes of theves which robbed him of his raymet and wounded him and departed levynge him halfe deed.

³¹ And by chaunce ther came a certayne preste that same waye and when he sawe him he passed by.

³² And lykewyse a Levite when he was come nye to the place wet and loked on him and passed by.

³³ Then a certayne Samaritane as he iornyed came nye vnto him and when he sawe him had compassion on him

³⁴ and went to and bounde vp his woundes and poured in oyle and wyne and put him on his awne beaste and brought him to a comen ynne and made provision for him.

³⁵ And on the morowe when he departed he toke out two pece and gave them to the host and sayde vnto him. Take cure of him and whatsoever thou spedest moare when I come agayne I will recompence the.

³⁶ Which now of these thre thynkest thou was neighbour vnto him that fell into the theves hondes?

³⁷ And he sayde: he that shewed mercy on him. Then sayde Iesus vnto him. Goo and do thou lyke wyse.

³⁸ It fortuned as they wet that he entred in to a certayne toune. And a certayne woman named Martha receaved him into her housse.

³⁹ And this woman had a sister called Mary which sate at Iesus fete and hearde his preachinge.

¹⁸ Jesus said to them, “I was watching Satan fall from heaven as lightning.

¹⁹ See, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will in any way hurt you.

²⁰ Nevertheless do not rejoice only in this, that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice even more that your names are engraved in heaven.”

²¹ At that same time he rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you concealed these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to those who are untaught, like little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well pleasing in your sight.”

²² “All things have been entrusted to me from my Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”

²³ Then he turned around to the disciples and said privately, “Blessed are those who see the things that you see.

²⁴ I say to you, many prophets and kings desired to see the things you see, and they did not see them, and to hear the things that you hear, and they did not hear them.”

²⁵ Behold, a certain teacher of the Jewish laws stood up so that he might test him, saying, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ Jesus said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”

²⁷ He gave an answer and he said, “You will love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”

²⁸ Jesus said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹ But the teacher, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ Jesus answered him and said, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho. He fell among robbers, who stripped him of his belongings, and beat him, and left him half dead.

³¹ By chance a certain priest was going down that way, and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² Similarly a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion.

³⁴ He approached him and bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ The next day he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said, 'Take care of him and whatever extra you spend, when I return, I will repay you.'

³⁶ Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”

³⁷ The teacher said, “The one who showed mercy to him.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do the same.”

³⁸ Now as they were traveling along, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha welcomed him into her house.

³⁹ She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and heard his word.

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.

²⁰ Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

²¹ In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”

²² Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”

²³ Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,

²⁴ for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”

²⁵ Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”

²⁷ He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

²⁸ He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”

³⁰ Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,

³⁴ came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’

³⁶ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”

³⁷ He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

³⁸ As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbour?”

³⁰ Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell amongst robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³⁸ As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹ She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.

¹⁸ And he said to them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

¹⁹ Behold, I give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰ Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject to you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

²¹ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

²² All things are delivered to me by my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him .

²³ And he turned himself to his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see.

²⁴ For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things which ye see, and have not seen them ; and to hear the things which ye hear, and have not heard them .

²⁵ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁶ He said to him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.

²⁸ And he said to him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he, willing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

³⁰ And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, who stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him , and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹ And by chance there came down a certain priest that way; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³² And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him , and passed by on the other side.

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came were he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him ,

³⁴ And went to him , and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵ And on the morrow, when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said to him, Take care of him: and whatever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

³⁶ Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbor to him that fell among the robbers?

³⁷ And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus to him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸ Now it came to pass, as they were going, he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her house.

³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

²⁵ Behold, a certain Torah scholar stood up and tested him, saying, “Rabbi, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶ He said to him, “What is written in the Torah? How do you read it?”

²⁷ He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

²⁸ He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Yeshua, “Who is my neighbor?”

¹⁸ And he said to them, I saw Satan falling down from heaven, as lightning.

¹⁹ And lo! I have given to you power to tread on serpents, and scorpions, and on all the virtue of the enemy, and nothing shall annoy you.

²⁰ Nevertheless do not ye have joy in this thing, that spirits be subject to you; but joy ye, that your names be written in heavens.

²¹ In that hour he gladded in the Holy Ghost, and said, I acknowledge to thee, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, for thou hast hid these things from wise men and prudent, and hast showed them to small or little children. Yea, Father, for so it pleased before thee or so it pleased to thee.

²² All things be given to me of my Father, and no man knoweth who is the Son, but the Father; and who is the Father, but the Son, and to whom the Son will show.

²³ And he turned to his disciples, and said, Blessed be the eyes, that see those things that ye see.

²⁴ For I say to you, that many prophets and kings would have seen those things, that ye see, and they saw not; and hear those things, that ye hear, and they heard not.

²⁵ And lo! a wise man of the law rose up, tempting him, and saying, Master, what thing shall I do to have everlasting life?

²⁶ And he said to him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ He answered, and said, Thou shalt love thy Lord God or the Lord thy God of all thine heart, and of all thy soul, and of all thy strengths, and of all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸ And Jesus said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this thing, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he willing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neigh-bour?

³⁰ And Jesus beheld, and said, A man or Some man came down from Jerusalem into Jericho, and fell among thieves, and they robbed him, and wounded him, and went away, and left the man half alive.

³¹ And it befell, that a priest came down the same way, and passed forth, when he had seen him.

³² Also a deacon, when he was beside the place, and saw him, passed forth.

³³ But a Samaritan, going the way, came beside him; and he saw him, and had ruth on him; Forsooth some Samaritan, making journey, came beside the way; and he seeing him, was stirred by mercy;

³⁴ and came to him, and bound together his wounds, and poured in oil and wine; and laid him on his beast, and led him in to an hostelry, and did the care of him.

³⁵ And another day, he brought forth two pence, and gave to the hosteller, and said, Have the care of him; and whatever thou shalt give over, I shall yield to thee, when I come again.

³⁶ Who of these three, seemeth to thee, was neighbour to him, that fell among the thieves?

³⁷ And he said, He that did mercy into him. And Jesus said to him, Go thou, and do thou in like manner.

³⁸ And it was done, while they went, he entered into a castle; and a woman, Martha by name, received him into her house.

³⁹ And to this was a sister, Mary by name, which also sat beside the feet of the Lord, and heard his word.

¹⁸ And he said to them, I saw Satan falling down from heaven, as (or like) lightning.

¹⁹ And lo! I have given to you power to tread on serpents, and scorpions, and on all the virtue of the enemy (or and over all the power of the enemy), and nothing shall harm you.

²⁰ Nevertheless do not ye have joy in this thing, that spirits be subject to you; but joy ye, that your names be written in heavens. (Nevertheless do not rejoice over this, that the spirits, or the devils and the demons, be subject to you; rather rejoice, that your names be written in heaven.)

²¹ In that hour he gladded in the Holy Ghost, and said, I acknowledge to thee, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, for thou hast hid these things from wise men and prudent, and hast showed them to small or to little children. Yea, Father, for so it pleased before thee or for so it pleased to thee. (At that time he was filled with gladness by the Holy Spirit, or At that time he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I acknowledge to thee, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, for thou hast hidden these things from wise and prudent men, and thou hast shown them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it pleased thee.)

²² All things be given to me of my Father (or Everything is given to me by my Father), and no man knoweth who is the Son, but the Father; and who is the Father, but the Son, and to whom the Son will show (it).

²⁵ And lo! a wise man of the law rose up, tempting him, and saying, Master, what thing shall I do to have everlasting life? (And behold! a man wise in the Law rose up to test him, and asked, Teacher, what should I do to get eternal life?)

²⁶ And he said to him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷ He answered, and said, Thou shalt love thy Lord God of all thine heart or Thou shalt love the Lord thy God of all thine heart, and of all thy soul, and of all thy strengths, and of all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. (He answered, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.)

²⁸ And Jesus said to him, Thou hast answered rightly (or Thou hast answered correctly); do this thing, and thou shalt live.

²⁹ But he willing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour? (But desiring to justify himself, he said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?)

³⁰ And Jesus beheld (him), and said, A man came down from Jerusalem into Jericho or Some man came down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, and they robbed him, and wounded him, and went away, and left the man half alive.

³¹ And it befell, that a priest came down the same way, and passed forth (or and passed by him), when he had seen him.

³² Also a deacon, when he was beside the place, and saw him, passed forth. (Also a Levite, when he was beside the place, and saw him, passed by him.)

³³ But a Samaritan, going the way, came beside him; and he saw him, and had ruth on him (or and had compassion for him); Forsooth some Samaritan, making journey, came beside the way; and he seeing him, was stirred by mercy;

³⁵ And another day (or And the next day), he brought forth two pence, and gave (them) to the hosteller, and said, Have the care of him (or Take care of him); and whatever thou shalt give over, I shall yield to thee, when I come again.

³⁶ Who of these three, seemeth to thee, was (a) neighbour to him, that fell among the thieves?

³⁷ And he said (to him), He that did mercy into him, (or He who did mercy, or who was kind to him). And Jesus said to him, Go thou, and do thou in like manner.

³⁸ And it was done, while they went, he entered into a castle (or he went into a village); and a woman, Martha by name, received him into her house.

³⁹ And to this was a sister, Mary by name, which also sat beside the feet of the Lord, and heard his word(s).

¹⁸ And he seide to hem, Y saiy Sathnas fallynge doun fro heuene, as leit.

¹⁹ And lo! Y haue youun to you power to trede on serpentis, and on scorpyouns, and on al the vertu of the enemy, and nothing schal anoye you.

²² Alle thingis ben youun to me of my fadir, and no man woot, who is the sone, but the fadir; and who is the fadir, but the sone, and to whom the sone wole schewe.

²³ And he turnede to hise disciplis, and seide, Blessid ben the iyen, that seen tho thingis that ye seen.

²⁴ For Y seie to you, that many prophetis and kyngis wolden haue seie tho thingis, that ye seen, and thei sayn not; and here tho thingis, that ye heren, and thei herden not.

²⁵ And lo! a wise man of the lawe ros vp, temptynge hym, and seiynge, Maister, what thing schal Y do to haue euerlastynge lijf?

²⁶ And he seide to hym, What is writun in the lawe? hou redist thou?

³⁴ and cam to hym, and boond togidir hise woundis, and helde in oyle and wynne; and leide hym on his beest, and ledde in to an ostrie, and dide the cure of hym.

³⁸ And it was don, while thei wenten, he entride in to a castel; and a womman, Martha bi name, resseyuede hym in to hir hous.

³⁹ And to this was a sistir, Marie bi name, which also sat bisidis the feet of the Lord, and herde his word.
