7Say you have a servant who does plowing or shepherding. When he comes in from work, do you say to him, ‘Come in and sit down now for a meal’?
8No. You say to him, ‘Prepare a meal for me, get yourself dressed, and serve me until I've finished my meal. After that you can have your meal.’
9And do you thank the servant for doing what you told him? No.
10Likewise once you've done everything you were told, you should simply say, ‘We are undeserving servants. We just did our duty.’”
11As Jesus continued on his way to Jerusalem, he passed along the border between Samaria and Galilee.
12As he entered a particular village, ten lepers met him, standing at a distance.
