Chapter 17

1


 

  And he said unto the disciples, 'It is impossible for the stumbling blocks not to come, but wo [to him] through whom they come;  

 

 

-

2


 

  it is more profitable to him if a weighty millstone is put round about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to stumble.  

 

 

-

3


 

  'Take heed to yourselves, and, if thy brother may sin in regard to thee, rebuke him, and if he may reform, forgive him,  

 

 

-

4


 

  and if seven times in the day he may sin against thee, and seven times in the day may turn back to thee, saying, I reform; thou shalt forgive him.'  

 

 

-

5


 

  And the apostles said to the Lord, 'Add to us faith;'  

 

 

-

6


 

  and the Lord said, 'If ye had faith as a grain of mustard, ye would have said to this sycamine, Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.  

 

 

-

7


 

  'But, who is he of you -- having a servant ploughing or feeding -- who, to him having come in out of the field, will say, Having come near, recline at meat?  

 

 

-

8


 

  but will not [rather] say to him, Prepare what I may sup, and having girded thyself about, minister to me, till I eat and drink, and after these things thou shalt eat and drink?  

 

 

-

9


 

  Hath he favour to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.  

 

 

-

10


 

  'So also ye, when ye may have done all the things directed you, say -- We are unprofitable servants, because that which we owed to do -- we have done.'  

 

 

-

11


 

  And it came to pass, in his going on to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee,  

 

 

-

12


 

  and he entering into a certain village, there met him ten leprous men, who stood afar off,  

 

 

-

13


 

  and they lifted up the voice, saying, 'Jesus, master, deal kindly with us;'  

 

 

-

14


 

  and having seen [them], he said to them, 'Having gone on, shew yourselves to the priests;' and it came to pass, in their going, they were cleansed,  

 

 

-

15


 

  and one of them having seen that he was healed did turn back, with a loud voice glorifying God,  

 

 

-

16


 

  and he fell upon [his] face at his feet, giving thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.  

 

 

-

17


 

  And Jesus answering said, 'Were not the ten cleansed, and the nine -- where?  

 

 

-

18


 

  There were not found who did turn back to give glory to God, except this alien;'  

 

 

-

19


 

  and he said to him, 'Having risen, be going on, thy faith hath saved thee.'  

 

 

-

20


 

  And having been questioned by the Pharisees, when the reign of God doth come, he answered them, and said, 'The reign of God doth not come with observation;  

 

 

-

21


 

  nor shall they say, Lo, here; or lo, there; for lo, the reign of God is within you.'  

 

 

-

22


 

  And he said unto his disciples, 'Days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and ye shall not behold [it];  

 

 

-

23


 

  and they shall say to you, Lo, here; or lo, there; ye may not go away, nor follow;  

 

 

-

24


 

  for as the lightning that is lightening out of the one [part] under heaven, to the other part under heaven doth shine, so shall be also the Son of Man in his day;  

 

 

-

25


 

  and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.  

 

 

-

26


 

  'And, as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man;  

 

 

-

27


 

  they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were given in marriage, till the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the deluge came, and destroyed all;  

 

 

-

28


 

  in like manner also, as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;  

 

 

-

29


 

  and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed all.  

 

 

-

30


 

  'According to these things it shall be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;  

 

 

-

31


 

  in that day, he who shall be on the house top, and his vessels in the house, let him not come down to take them away; and he in the field, in like manner, let him not turn backward;  

 

 

-

32


 

  remember the wife of Lot.  

 

 

-

33


 

  Whoever may seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever may lose it, shall preserve it.  

 

 

-

34


 

  'I say to you, In that night, there shall be two men on one couch, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;  

 

 

-

35


 

  two women shall be grinding at the same place together, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;  

 

 

-

36


 

  two men shall be in the field, the one shall be taken, and the other left.'  

 

 

-

37


 

  And they answering say to him, 'Where, sir?' and he said to them, 'Where the body [is], there will the eagles be gathered together.'
