Luke 10:25–37

²⁵And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and made trial of him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? ²⁶And he said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? ²⁷And 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. ²⁸And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. ²⁹But he, desiring to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor? ³⁰Jesus 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. ³¹And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. ³²And in like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side. ³³But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion, ³⁴and 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. ³⁵And 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. ³⁶Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbor unto him that fell among the robbers? ³⁷And he said, He that showed mercy on him. And Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
