Luke 17:1–19

And he said to his disciples: It is impossible that scandals should not come. But woe to him through whom they come!

²It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck and he cast into the sea, than that he should scandalize one of these little ones.

³Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother sin against thee, reprove him: and if he do penance, forgive him.

⁴And if he sin against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day be converted unto thee, saying: I repent: forgive him.

⁵And the apostles said to the Lord: Increase our faith.

⁶And the Lord said: If you had faith like to a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this mulberry tree: Be thou rooted up and be thou transplanted into the sea. And it would obey you.

⁷But which of you, having a servant ploughing or feeding cattle, will say to him, when he is come from the field: Immediately go. Sit down to meat.

⁸And will not rather say to him: Make ready my supper and gird thyself and serve me, whilst I eat and drink; and afterwards thou shalt eat and drink?

⁹Doth he thank that servant for doing the things which he commanded him?

¹⁰I think not. So you also, when you shall have done all these things that are commanded you, say: We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which we ought to do.

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

¹²And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood afar off.

¹³And lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

¹⁴Whom when he saw, he said: Go, show yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were made clean.

¹⁵And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God.

¹⁶And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks. And this was a Samaritan.

¹⁷And Jesus answering, said: Were not ten made clean? And where are the nine?

¹⁸There is no one found to return and give glory to God, but this stranger.

¹⁹And he said to him: Arise, go thy way; for thy faith hath made thee whole.
