Luke 17:1-19

Good News Translation GNT

1 Jesus said to his disciples, "Things that make people fall into sin are bound to happen, but how terrible for the one who makes them happen!

2 It would be better for him if a large millstone were tied around his neck and he were thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.

3 So watch what you do! "If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.

4 If he sins against you seven times in one day, and each time he comes to you saying, "I repent,' you must forgive him."

5 The apostles said to the Lord, "Make our faith greater."

6 The Lord answered, "If you had faith as big as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, "Pull yourself up by the roots and plant yourself in the sea!' and it would obey you.

7 "Suppose one of you has a servant who is plowing or looking after the sheep. When he comes in from the field, do you tell him to hurry along and eat his meal?

8 Of course not! Instead, you say to him, "Get my supper ready, then put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink; after that you may have your meal.'

9 The servant does not deserve thanks for obeying orders, does he?

10 It is the same with you; when you have done all you have been told to do, say, "We are ordinary servants; we have only done our duty.' "

11 As Jesus made his way to Jerusalem, he went along the border between Samaria and Galilee.

12 He was going into a village when he was met by ten men suffering from a dreaded skin disease. They stood at a distance

13 and shouted, "Jesus! Master! Have pity on us!"

14 Jesus saw them and said to them, "Go and let the priests examine you." On the way they were made clean.

15 When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16 He threw himself to the ground at Jesus' feet and thanked him. The man was a Samaritan.

17 Jesus spoke up, "There were ten who were healed; where are the other nine?

18 Why is this foreigner the only one who came back to give thanks to God?"

19 And Jesus said to him, "Get up and go; your faith has made you well."

New International Version NIV

1 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come.

2 It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3 So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sistersins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them.

4 Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.”

5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

6 He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.

7 “Suppose one of you has a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Will he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, ‘Come along now and sit down to eat’?

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.’ ”

11 Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee.

12 As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at a distance

13 and called out in a loud voice, “Jesus, Master, have pity on us!”

14 When he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed.

15 One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16 He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan.

17 Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?

18 Has no one returned to give praise to God except this foreigner?”

19 Then he said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”
