Luke 17:6-16

6 "If you have faith the size of [a] a mustard seed," the Lord said, "you can say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it will obey you.
7 "Which one of you having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he comes in from the field, 'Come at once and sit down to eat'?
8 Instead, will he not tell him, 'Prepare something for me to eat, get ready, [b] and serve me while I eat and drink; later you can eat and drink'?
9 Does he thank that slave because he did what was commanded? [c]
10 In the same way, when you have done all that you were commanded, you should say, 'We are good-for-nothing slaves; we've only done our duty.' "

The 10 Lepers

11 While traveling to Jerusalem, He passed between[d] Samaria and Galilee.
12 As He entered a village, 10 men with serious skin diseases met Him. They stood at a distance
13 and raised their voices, saying, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!"
14 When He saw them, He told them, "Go and show yourselves to the priests." And while they were going, they were healed.[e]
15 But one of them, seeing that he was healed, returned and, with a loud voice, gave glory to God.
16 He fell facedown at His feet, thanking Him. And he was a Samaritan.
