Chapter 17

1


 

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

 

 

--

2


 

  It 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.  

 

 

--

3


 

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

 

 

--

4


 

  And 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.  

 

 

--

5


 

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

 

 

--

6


 

  And 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.  

 

 

--

7


 

  But 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:  

 

 

--

8


 

  And 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?  

 

 

--

9


 

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

 

 

--

10


 

  I 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.

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

 

 

--

12


 

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

 

 

--

13


 

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

 

 

--

14


 

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

 

 

--

15


 

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

 

 

--

16


 

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

 

 

--

17


 

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

 

 

--

18


 

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

 

 

--

19


 

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

 

 

--

20


 

  And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come? he answered them, and said: The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:  

 

 

--

21


 

  Neither shall they say: Behold here, or behold there. For lo, the kingdom of God is within you.  

 

 

--

22


 

  And he said to his disciples: The days will come, when you shall desire to see one day of the Son of man; and you shall not see it.  

 

 

--

23


 

  And they will say to you: See here, and see there. Go ye not after, nor follow them:  

 

 

--

24


 

  For as the lightening that lighteneth from under heaven, shineth unto the parts that are under heaven, so shall the Son of man be in his day.  

 

 

--

25


 

  But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.  

 

 

--

26


 

  And as it came to pass in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.  

 

 

--

27


 

  They did eat and drink, they married wives, and were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all.  

 

 

--

28


 

  Likewise as it came to pass, in the days of Lot: they did eat and drink, they bought and sold, they planted and built.  

 

 

--

29


 

  And in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.  

 

 

--

30


 

  Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man shall be revealed.  

 

 

--

31


 

  In that hour, he that shall be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away: and he that shall be in the field, in like manner, let him not return back.  

 

 

--

32


 

  Remember Lot's wife.  

 

 

--

33


 

  Whosoever shall seek to save his life, shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose it, shall preserve it.  

 

 

--

34


 

  I say to you: in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.  

 

 

--

35


 

  Two women shall be grinding together: the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left: two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be keft.  

 

 

--

36


 

  They answering, say to him: Where, Lord?  

 

 

--

37


 

  Who said to them: Wheresoever the body shall be, thither will the eagles also be gathered together.
