Lucas 17:9

Listen to Lucas 17:9
9 Porventura agradecerá ao servo, porque este fez o que lhe foi mandado?

Lucas 17:9 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 17:9

Doth he thank that servant
As if he had done him a favour, and what he was not obliged to;

because he did the things that were commanded him?
for, as a servant, he ought to do them, and in so doing does but his duty: he may indeed be commended for it, but not thanked:

I trow not;
or "I think not"; it do not seem so to me, as if he would, or, as though it was proper and necessary he should. The Ethiopic version leaves out this last clause.

7 Qual de vós, tendo um servo a lavrar ou a apascentar gado, lhe dirá, ao voltar ele do campo: chega-te já, e reclina-te � mesa?
8 Não lhe dirá antes: Prepara-me a ceia, e cinge-te, e serve-me, até que eu tenha comido e bebido, e depois comerás tu e beberás?
9 Porventura agradecerá ao servo, porque este fez o que lhe foi mandado?
10 Assim também vós, quando fizerdes tudo o que vos for mandado, dizei: Somos servos inúteis; fizemos somente o que devíamos fazer.
