Luke 17

1 And He said to the disciples, “It is impossible for the stumbling blocks not to come, but woe [to him] through whom they come;

And he said unto his disciples, It is impossible but that occasions of stumbling should come; but woe unto him, through whom they come!

2 it is more profitable to him if a weighty millstone is put around his neck, and he has been cast into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to stumble.

It were well for him if a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3 Take heed to yourselves, and if your brother may sin in regard to you, rebuke him, and if he may change his mind, forgive him,

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

4 and if seven times in the day he may sin against you, and seven times in the day may return to you, saying, I change my mind, you will forgive him.”

And if he sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.

5 And the apostles said to the LORD, “Add to us faith”;

And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.

6 and the LORD said, “If you had faith as a grain of mustard, you would have said to this sycamine, Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.

And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye would say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou rooted up, and be thou planted in the sea; and it would obey you.

7 But who is he of you—having a servant plowing or feeding—who, to him having come in out of the field, will say, Having come, recline at once?

But who is there of you, having a servant plowing or keeping sheep, that will say unto him, when he is come in from the field, Come straightway and sit down to meat;

8 But will not [rather] say to him, Prepare what I may dine, and having girded yourself around, minister to me, until I eat and drink, and after these things you will eat and drink?

and will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?

9 Does he have favor to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.

Doth he thank the servant because he did the things that were commanded?

10 So also you, when you may have done all the things directed you, say, We are unprofitable servants, because that which we owed to do we have done.”

Even so ye also, when ye shall have done all the things that are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which it was our duty to do.

11 And it came to pass, in His going on to Jerusalem, that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee,

And it came to pass, as they were on the way to Jerusalem, that he was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee.

12 and He entering into a certain village, there ten leprous men met Him, who stood far off,

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

13 and they lifted up the voice, saying, “Jesus, Master, deal kindly with us”;

and they lifted up their voices, saying, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

14 and having seen [them], He said to them, “Having gone on, show yourselves to the priests”; and it came to pass, in their going, they were cleansed,

And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go and show yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were cleansed.

15 and one of them having seen that he was healed turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice,

And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, with a loud voice glorifying God;

16 and he fell on [his] face at His feet, giving thanks to Him, and he was a Samaritan.

and he fell upon his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

17 And Jesus answering said, “Were not the ten cleansed, and the nine—where?

And Jesus answering said, Were not the ten cleansed? but where are the nine?

18 There were none found who turned back to give glory to God, except this foreigner”;

Were there none found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger?

19 and He said to him, “Having risen, be going on, your faith has saved you.”

And he said unto him, Arise, and go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

20 And having been questioned by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God comes, 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 cometh, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

21 nor will they say, Behold, here; or, Behold, there; for behold, the Kingdom of God is within you.”

neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is within you.

22 And He said to His disciples, “Days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man and you will not behold [it];

And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.

23 and they will say to you, Behold, here; or, Behold, there; you may not go away, nor follow;

And they shall say to you, Lo, there! Lo, here! go not away, nor follow after [them]:

24 for as the lightning is flashing out of one [part] under the sky [and] shines to the other [part] under the sky, so will the Son of Man also be in His day;

for as the lightning, when it lighteneth out of the one part under the heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall the Son of man be in his day.

25 and first it is necessary for Him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.

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

26 And as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so will it also be in the days of the Son of Man;

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

27 they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the Ark, and the flood came, and destroyed all;

They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

28 in like manner also, as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;

Likewise even as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

29 and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from the sky, and destroyed all.

but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all:

30 According to these things it will be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;

after the same manner shall it be in the day that the Son of man is revealed.

31 in that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his vessels in the house, do not let him come down to take them away; and he in the field, in like manner, do not let him turn backward;

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

32 remember the wife of Lot.

Remember Lot’s wife.

33 Whoever may seek to save his life, will lose it; and whoever may lose it, will preserve it.

Whosoever shall seek to gain his life shall lose it: but whosoever shall lose [his life] shall preserve it.

34 I say to you, in that night there will be two [men] on one bed: one will be taken, and the other will be left;

I say unto you, In that night there shall be two men on one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

35 two [women] will be grinding at the same place together: one will be taken, and the other will be left;

There shall be two women grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

36 [[two [men] will be in the field: one will be taken, and the other left.”]]

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

And they answering say unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Where the body [is], thither will the eagles also be gathered together.
