1. And he said to his disciples, It cannot be but that offences come, but woe to him by 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.

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

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

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.

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?

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?

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

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.

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

13. And they lifted up their voice saying, Jesus, Master, have compassion 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.

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

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

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