Luke 17

Whiston(i) 1 Then said he unto [his] disciples, It is impossible but that scandals will come: but wo [unto him,] through whom they come. 2 But it were better for him, that a milstone had been hanged about his neck, and he had been cast into the sea, than that he should scandalize one of these little ones. 3 Take heed to your selves: If thy brother shall trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he shall repent, forgive him. 4 And if he shall sin against thee seven times in a day, and seven times turn again to thee saying, I repent; forgive him. 5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith. 6 But he said unto them, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard-seed, ye might have said unto this mountain, remove hence to yonder place, and it should have removed;and unto this sycamine-tree, be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you. 7 But which of you having a servant plowing, or seeding, when he is come from the field, will he say presently unto him, Go and sit down? 8 But he will say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thy self, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward eat and drink? 9 Doth he thank the servant because he hath done what he was bidden? I suppose not. 10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done whatsoever I say, say ye, We are unprofitable servants: we have done what we ought to do. 11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entred into a certain village where there were ten men that were lepers; they stood afar off: 13 And they cried with a loud voice, and said, Jesus Master, have mercy on us. 14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Be ye healed: Go shew your selves unto the priests. And it came to pass that as they went, they were cleansed. 15 And one of them when he saw that he was cleansed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God. 16 And fell down on [his] face at his feet: and he was a Samaritan. 17 And Jesus answering said to them, Were there not ten cleansed? where [are] the nine? 18 None of them is found that will return to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way; For thy faith hath made thee whole. 20 And when he was asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come; he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation. 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here, or, lo there: do not believe [them], for behold, the kingdom of God is within you. 22 He said therefore unto the disciples, The days will come when ye shall desire one of these days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it. 23 And they will say to you See here, or, see there; you shall not go out, nor follow [them]. 24 For as the lightning that lightneth out of the one [part] under heaven, shineth, so shall also the Son of man be in his day. 25 But he must first suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation. 26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27 They did eat, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entred into the ark: and the flood came, and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot, they eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded: 29 On the same day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. 30 Even thus shall it be in the day of the Son of man, when he shall be revealed. 31 In that day, he who shall be upon the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not come down to take them away: and he who is in the field, let him likewise not return back. 32 Remember Lot's wife. 33 Whosoever shall save his life, shall lose [it:] and whosoever shall lose his life, shall preserve it. 34 I tell you, in that night there will be two men upon one bed; the one will be taken, and the other will be left. 35 Two women will be grinding together, the one will be taken, and the other left. 36 Two men will be in the field; the one will be taken, and the other left. 37 And they answered and said, Where, Lord? And, he said unto them, Where the body [is,] thither will the eagles be gathered together.
