28 "A right answer!" said Jesus; "do that and you will live."
29 Anxious to make an excuse for himself, however, he said to Jesus, "But who is my neighbour?"
30 Jesus rejoined, "A man going down from Jerusalem to Jericho fell among robbers who stripped and belaboured him and then went off leaving him half-dead.
31 Now it so chanced that a priest was going down the same road, but on seeing him he went past on the opposite side.
32 So did a Levite who came to the spot; he looked at him but passed on the opposite side.
33 However a Samaritan traveller came to where he was and felt pity when he saw him;
34 he went to him, bound his wounds up, pouring oil and wine into them, mounted him on his own steed, took him to an inn, and attended to him.
35 Next morning he took out a couple of shillings and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, 'Attend to him, and if you are put to any extra expense I will refund you on my way back.'
36 Which of these three men, in your opinion, proved a neighbour to the man who fell among the robbers?"
37 He said, "The man who took pity on him." Jesus said to him, "Then go and do the same."
