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.
