Luke 17

1 And he said to his disciples, It cannot be but that offences come, but woe [to him] by whom they come!

And he said to his disciples: It is impossible that scandals should not come: but woe to him through whom they come.

2 It would be [more] profitable for him if a millstone were hanged about his neck and he cast into the sea, than that he should be a snare to one of these little ones.

It were better for him, that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should scandalize one of these little ones.

3 Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother should sin, rebuke him; and if he should repent, forgive him.

Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother sin against thee, reprove him: and if he do penance, forgive him.

4 And if he should sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times should return to thee, saying, I repent, thou shalt forgive him.

And if he sin against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day be converted unto thee, saying, I repent; forgive him.

5 And the apostles said to the Lord, Give more faith to us.

And the apostles said to the Lord: Increase our faith.

6 But the Lord said, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard [seed], ye had said to this sycamine tree, Be thou rooted up, and be thou planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.

And the Lord said: If you had faith like to a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this mulberry tree, Be thou rooted up, and be thou transplanted into the sea: and it would obey you.

7 But which of you [is there] who, having a bondman ploughing or shepherding, when he comes in out of the field, will say, Come and lie down immediately to table?

But which of you having a servant ploughing, or feeding cattle, will say to him, when he is come from the field: Immediately go, sit down to meat:

8 But will he not say to him, Prepare what I shall sup on, and gird thyself and serve me that I may eat and drink; and after that thou shalt eat and drink?

And will not rather say to him: Make ready my supper, and gird thyself, and serve me, whilst I eat and drink, and afterwards thou shalt eat and drink?

9 Is he thankful to the bondman because he has done what was ordered? I judge not.

Doth he thank that servant, for doing the things which he commanded him?

10 Thus ye also, when ye shall have done all things that have been ordered you, say, We are unprofitable bondmen; we have done what it was our duty to do.

I think not. So you also, when you shall have done all these things that are commanded you, say: We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which we ought to do.

11 And it came to pass as he was going up to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

12 And as he entered into a certain village ten leprous men met him, who stood afar off.

And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood afar off;

13 And they lifted up [their] voice saying, Jesus, Master, have compassion on us.

And lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, master, have mercy on us.

14 And seeing [them] he said to them, Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass as they were going they were cleansed.

Whom when he saw, he said: Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were made clean.

15 And one of them, seeing that he was cured, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice,

And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God.

16 and fell on [his] face at his feet giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks: and this was a Samaritan.

17 And Jesus answering said, Were not the ten cleansed? but the nine, where [are they]?

And Jesus answering, said, Were not ten made clean? and where are the nine?

18 There have not been found to return and give glory to God save this stranger.

There is no one found to return and give glory to God, but this stranger.

19 And he said to him, Rise up and go thy way: thy faith has made thee well.

And he said to him: Arise, go thy way; for thy faith hath made thee whole.

20 And having been asked by the Pharisees, When is the kingdom of God coming? he answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

And being 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 nor shall they say, Lo here, or, Lo there; for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.

Neither shall they say: Behold here, or behold there. For lo, the kingdom of God is within you.

22 And he said to the disciples, Days are coming, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and shall not see [it].

And he said to his disciples: The days will come, when you shall desire to see one day of the Son of man; and you shall not see it.

23 And they will say to you, Lo here, or Lo there; go not, nor follow [them].

And they will say to you: See here, and see there. Go ye not after, nor follow them:

24 For as the lightning shines which lightens from [one end] under heaven to [the other end] under heaven, thus shall the Son of man be in his day.

For as the lightening that lighteneth from under heaven, shineth unto the parts that are under heaven, so shall the Son of man be in his day.

25 But first he must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation.

But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.

26 And as it took place in the days of Noe, thus also shall it be in the days of the Son of man:

And as it came to pass in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

27 they ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed all [of them];

They did eat and drink, they married wives, and were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all.

28 and in like manner as took place in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

Likewise as it came to pass, in the days of Lot: they did eat and drink, they bought and sold, they planted and built.

29 but on the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from heaven, and destroyed all [of them]:

And in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

30 after this [manner] shall it be in the day that the Son of man is revealed.

Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man shall be revealed.

31 In that day, he who shall be on the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not go down to take it away; and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

In that hour, he that shall be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away: and he that shall be in the field, in like manner, let him not return back.

32 Remember the wife of Lot.

Remember Lot’s wife.

33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose it shall preserve it.

Whosoever shall seek to save his life, shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose it, shall preserve it.

34 I say to you, In that night there shall be two [men] upon one bed; one shall be seized and the other shall be let go.

I say to you: in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

35 Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be seized and the other shall be let go.

Two women shall be grinding together: the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left: two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be keft.

36 [Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be seized and the other let go.]

They answering, say to him: Where, Lord?

37 And answering they say to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body [is], there the eagles will be gathered together.

Who said to them: Wheresoever the body shall be, thither will the eagles also be gathered together.
