Luke 17:1-17

¹And he said to his disciples, It cannot be but that offences come, but woe to him by whom they come!

²It would be more profitable for him if a millstone were hanged about his neck and he cast into the sea, than that he should be a snare to one of these little ones.

³Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother should sin, rebuke him; and if he should repent, forgive him.

⁴And if he should sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times should return to thee, saying, I repent, thou shalt forgive him.

⁵And the apostles said to the Lord, Give more faith to us.

⁶But the Lord said, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye had said to this sycamine tree, Be thou rooted up, and be thou planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.

⁷But which of you is there who, having a bondman ploughing or shepherding, when he comes in out of the field, will say, Come and lie down immediately to table?

⁸But will he not say to him, Prepare what I shall sup on, and gird thyself and serve me that I may eat and drink; and after that thou shalt eat and drink?

⁹Is he thankful to the bondman because he has done what was ordered? I judge not.

¹⁰Thus ye also, when ye shall have done all things that have been ordered you, say, We are unprofitable bondmen; we have done what it was our duty to do.

¹¹And it came to pass as he was going up to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

¹²And as he entered into a certain village ten leprous men met him, who stood afar off.

¹³And they lifted up their voice saying, Jesus, Master, have compassion on us.

¹⁴And seeing them he said to them, Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass as they were going they were cleansed.

¹⁵And one of them, seeing that he was cured, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice,

¹⁶and fell on his face at his feet giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

¹⁷And Jesus answering said, Were not the ten cleansed? but the nine, where are they?
