Luke 17:12-30

¹²And when he entered into a castle, ten leprous men came to meet him, which stood afar,

¹³and raised up their voice, and said, Jesus, Commander, have mercy on us.

¹⁴And as he saw them, he said, Go, show ye you to the priests. And it was done, while they went, they were cleansed.

¹⁵And one of them, as he saw that he was cleansed, went again, magni-fying God with a great voice.

¹⁶And he fell down on the face before his feet, and did thankings or doing graces; and this was a Samaritan.

¹⁷And Jesus answered, and said, Whether ten be not cleansed, and where be the nine?

¹⁸There is none found, that turned again, and gave glory to God, but this alien or this stranger.

¹⁹And he said to him, Rise up, go thou; for thy faith hath made thee safe.

²⁰And he was asked of the Pharisees, when the realm of God cometh. And he answered to them, and said, The realm of God cometh not with espying,

²¹neither they shall say, Lo! here, or lo! there; for lo! the realm of God is within you.

²²And he said to his disciples, Days shall come, when ye shall desire to see one day of man’s Son, and ye shall not see.

²³And they shall say to you, Lo! here, and lo! there. Do not ye go, neither pursue;

²⁴for as lightning shining from under heaven shineth into or on those things that be under heaven, so shall man’s Son be in his day.

²⁵But first it behooveth him to suffer many things, and to be reproved of this generation.

²⁶And as it was done in the days of Noah, so it shall be in the days of man’s Son.

²⁷They ate and drank, wedded wives, and were given to weddings, till into the day in which Noah entered into the ship; and the great flood came, and lost all.

²⁸Also as it was done in the days of Lot, they ate and drank, bought and sold, planted and builded;

²⁹but in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, the Lord rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and lost all.

³⁰Like this thing it shall be, in what day man’s Son shall be showed.
