Lucas 17:9

Listen to Lucas 17:9
9 Será que ele agradecerá ao servo por ter feito o que lhe foi ordenado?

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.

Lucas 17:9 In-Context

7 “Qual de vocês que, tendo um servo que esteja arando ou cuidando das ovelhas, lhe dirá, quando ele chegar do campo: ‘Venha agora e sente-se para comer’?
8 Ao contrário, não dirá: ‘Prepare o meu jantar, apronte-se e sirva-me enquanto como e bebo; depois disso você pode comer e beber’?
9 Será que ele agradecerá ao servo por ter feito o que lhe foi ordenado?
10 Assim também vocês, quando tiverem feito tudo o que for ordenado, devem dizer: ‘Somos servos inúteis; apenas cumprimos o nosso dever’.”
11 A caminho de Jerusalém, Jesus passou pela divisa entre Samaria e Galileia.
