²⁹But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” ³⁰And^h Jesus replied and^* said, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who both stripped him and beat him.^* After^* inflicting blows on him,^* they went away, leaving him^* half dead. ³¹Now by coincidence a certain priest was going down on that road, and when he^* saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. ³²And in the same way also a Levite, when he^* came down to the placeⁱ and saw him,^* passed by on the opposite side. ³³But a certain Samaritan who was traveling came up to him and, when he^* saw him,^* had compassion. ³⁴And he came up and^* bandaged his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine, and he put him on his own animal and^* brought him to an inn and took care of him. ³⁵And on the next day, he took out two denarii and^* gave them^*^j to the innkeeper, and said, “Take care of him, and whatever you spend in addition, I will repay to you when I return. ³⁶Which of these three do you suppose became a neighbor of the man who fell among the robbers?” ³⁷So he said, “The one who showed mercy to him.” And Jesus said to him, “You go and do likewise.”
