The Bible in Basic English BBE

6 And the Lord said, If your faith was only as great as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this tree, Be rooted up and planted in the sea; and it would be done.

7 But which of you, having a servant who is ploughing or keeping sheep, will say to him, when he comes in from the field, Come now and be seated and have a meal,

8 Will he not say, Get a meal for me, and make yourself ready and see to my needs till I have had my food and drink; and after that you may have yours?

9 Does he give praise to the servant because he did what was ordered?

10 In the same way, when you have done all the things which are given you to do, say, There is no profit in us, for we have only done what we were ordered to do.

11 And it came about that when they were on the way to Jerusalem he went through Samaria and Galilee.

12 And when he went into a certain small town he came across ten men who were lepers, and they, keeping themselves at a distance,

14 And when he saw them he said, Go, and let the priests see you. And, while they were going, they were made clean.

15 And one of them, when he saw that he was clean, turning back, gave praise to God in a loud voice;

16 And, falling down on his face at the feet of Jesus, he gave the credit to him; and he was a man of Samaria.

8 Won’t he rather say, ‘Prepare my supper, get yourself ready and wait on me while I eat and drink; after that you may eat and drink’?

9 Will he thank the servant because he did what he was told to do?

10 So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’ ”
