Luke 17 (WEBP)

[1] He said to the disciples, “It is impossible that no occasions of stumbling should come, but woe to him through whom they come!
[2] It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
[3] Be careful. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him.
[4] If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
[5] The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
[6] The Lord said, “If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you would tell this sycamore tree, ‘Be uprooted and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
[7] But who is there among you, having a servant plowing or keeping sheep, that will say when he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and sit down at the table’?
[8] Wouldn’t he rather tell him, ‘Prepare my supper, clothe yourself properly, and serve me while I eat and drink. Afterward you shall eat and drink’?
[9] Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
[10] Even so you also, when you have done all the things that are commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants. We have done our duty.’”
[11] As he was on his way to Jerusalem, he was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee.
[12] As he entered into a certain village, ten men who were lepers met him, who stood at a distance.
[13] They lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
[14] When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were cleansed.
[15] One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
[16] He fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.
[17] Jesus answered, “Weren’t the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
[18] Were there none found who returned to give glory to God, except this foreigner?”
[19] Then he said to him, “Get up, and go your way. Your faith has healed you.”
[20] Being asked by the Pharisees when God’s Kingdom would come, he answered them, “God’s Kingdom doesn’t come with observation;
[21] neither will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ for behold, God’s Kingdom is within you.”
[22] He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
[23] They will tell you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Don’t go away or follow after them,
[24] for as the lightning, when it flashes out of one part under the sky, shines to another part under the sky, so will the Son of Man be in his day.
[25] But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
[26] As it was in the days of Noah, even so it will also be in the days of the Son of Man.
[27] They ate, they drank, they married, and they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ship, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
[28] Likewise, even as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;
[29] but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from the sky and destroyed them all.
[30] It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed.
[31] In that day, he who will be on the housetop and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away. Let him who is in the field likewise not turn back.
[32] Remember Lot’s wife!
[33] Whoever seeks to save his life loses it, but whoever loses his life preserves it.
[34] I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed. One will be taken and the other will be left.
[35] There will be two grinding grain together. One will be taken and the other will be left.”
[36]
[37] They, answering, asked him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the body is, there the vultures will also be gathered together.”

Luke 17:36 Some Greek manuscripts add: “Two will be in the field: the one taken, and the other left.”

Luke 17 (KJVS)

[1] Then said he () unto the disciples, It is () impossible but that offences will come: () but woe unto him, through whom they come! ()
[2] It were better () for him that a millstone were hanged () about his neck, and he cast () into the sea, than that he should offend () one of these little ones.
[3] Take heed () to yourselves: If thy brother trespass () against thee, rebuke () him; and if he repent, () forgive () him.
[4] And if he trespass () against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again () to thee, saying, () I repent; () thou shalt forgive () him.
[5] And the apostles said () unto the Lord, Increase () our faith.
[6] And the Lord said, () If ye had () faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say () unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, () and be thou planted () in the sea; and it should obey () you.
[7] But which of you, having () a servant plowing () or feeding cattle, () will say () unto him by and by, when he is come () from the field, Go () and sit down to meat? ()
[8] 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] Doth he () thank that servant because he did () the things that were commanded () him? I trow () not.
[10] So likewise ye, when ye shall have done () all those things which are commanded () you, say, () We are () unprofitable servants: we have done () that which was our duty () 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 entered () into a certain village, there met () him ten men that were lepers, which stood () afar off:
[13] and they lifted up () their voices, and said, () Jesus, Master, have mercy () on us.
[14] And when he saw () them, he said () unto them, Go () shew () yourselves 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 healed, () turned back, () and with a loud voice glorified () God,
[16] and fell down () on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: () and he was () a Samaritan.
[17] And Jesus answering () said, () Were there not ten cleansed? () but where are the nine?
[18] There are not found () that returned () to give () glory to God, save this stranger.
[19] And he said () unto him, Arise, () go thy way: () thy faith hath made thee whole. ()
[20] And when he was demanded () of 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! for, behold, () the kingdom of God is () within you.
[22] 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 shall say () to you, See () here; or, see () there: go not after () them, nor follow () them.
[24] For as the lightning, that lighteneth () out of the one part under heaven, shineth () unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be () in his day.
[25] But first must () he 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 wives, () they were given in marriage, () until the day that Noe entered () into the ark, and the flood came, () and destroyed () them all.
[28] Likewise also as it was () in the days of Lot; they did eat, () they drank, () they bought, () they sold, () they planted, () they builded; ()
[29] but 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 when the Son of man is revealed. ()
[31] In that day, he which shall be () upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down () to take it away: () and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return () back.
[32] Remember () Lot’s wife.
[33] Whosoever shall seek () to save () his life shall lose () it; and whosoever shall lose () his life shall preserve () it.
[34] I tell () 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 taken, () and the other left. ()
[36] Two men shall be () in the field; the one shall be taken, () and the other left. ()
[37] And they answered () and said () unto him, Where, Lord? And he said () unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together. ()
