<p id="id00772">42:017:001 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that<br/>
offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!<br/></p>
<p id="id00773">42:017:002 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.</p>
<p id="id00774">42:017:003 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee,
rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.</p>
<p id="id00775">42:017:004 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.</p>
<p id="id00776">42:017:005 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.</p>
<p id="id00777">42:017:006 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.</p>
<p id="id00778">42:017:007 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle,<br/>
will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field,<br/>
Go and sit down to meat?<br/></p>
<p id="id00779">42:017:008 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may<br/>
sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and<br/>
drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?<br/></p>
<p id="id00780">42:017:009 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were
commanded him? I trow not.</p>
<p id="id00781">42:017:010 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.</p>
<p id="id00782">42:017:011 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed<br/>
through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.<br/></p>
<p id="id00783">42:017:012 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten<br/>
men that were lepers, which stood afar off:<br/></p>
<p id="id00784">42:017:013 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have<br/>
mercy on us.<br/></p>
<p id="id00785">42:017:014 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.</p>
<p id="id00786">42:017:015 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back,<br/>
and with a loud voice glorified God,<br/></p>
<p id="id00787">42:017:016 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and<br/>
he was a Samaritan.<br/></p>
<p id="id00788">42:017:017 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but<br/>
where are the nine?<br/></p>
<p id="id00789">42:017:018 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save<br/>
this stranger.<br/></p>
<p id="id00790">42:017:019 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made<br/>
thee whole.<br/></p>
<p id="id00791">42:017:020 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of<br/>
God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God<br/>
cometh not with observation:<br/></p>
<p id="id00792">42:017:021 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold,
the kingdom of God is within you.</p>
<p id="id00793">42:017:022 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.</p>
<p id="id00794">42:017:023 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not
after them, nor follow them.</p>
<p id="id00795">42:017:024 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.</p>
<p id="id00796">42:017:025 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this<br/>
generation.<br/></p>
<p id="id00797">42:017:026 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the<br/>
days of the Son of man.<br/></p>
<p id="id00798">42:017:027 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.</p>
<p id="id00799">42:017:028 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they<br/>
drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;<br/></p>
<p id="id00800">42:017:029 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and<br/>
brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.<br/></p>
<p id="id00801">42:017:030 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is<br/>
revealed.<br/></p>
<p id="id00802">42:017:031 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.</p>
<p id="id00803">42:017:032 Remember Lot's wife.</p>
<p id="id00804">42:017:033 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and<br/>
whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.<br/></p>
<p id="id00805">42:017:034 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed;<br/>
the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.<br/></p>
<p id="id00806">42:017:035 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken,<br/>
and the other left.<br/></p>
<p id="id00807">42:017:036 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the<br/>
other left.<br/></p>
<p id="id00808">42:017:037 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.</p>
<p id="id00809">42:018:001 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought<br/>
always to pray, and not to faint;<br/></p>
<p id="id00810">42:018:002 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God,<br/>
neither regarded man:<br/></p>
<p id="id00811">42:018:003 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him,<br/>
saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.<br/></p>
<p id="id00812">42:018:004 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within<br/>
himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;<br/></p>
<p id="id00813">42:018:005 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest<br/>
by her continual coming she weary me.<br/></p>
<p id="id00814">42:018:006 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.</p>
<p id="id00815">42:018:007 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and<br/>
night unto him, though he bear long with them?<br/></p>
<p id="id00816">42:018:008 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless<br/>
when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?<br/></p>
<p id="id00817">42:018:009 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in<br/>
themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:<br/></p>
<p id="id00818">42:018:010 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee,<br/>
and the other a publican.<br/></p>
<p id="id00819">42:018:011 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank
thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust,
adulterers, or even as this publican.</p>
<p id="id00820">42:018:012 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.</p>
<p id="id00821">42:018:013 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much<br/>
as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying,<br/>
God be merciful to me a sinner.<br/></p>
<p id="id00822">42:018:014 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather<br/>
than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be<br/>
abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.<br/></p>
<p id="id00823">42:018:015 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch
them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.</p>
<p id="id00824">42:018:016 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little
children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is
the kingdom of God.</p>
<p id="id00825">42:018:017 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom<br/>
of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.<br/></p>
<p id="id00826">42:018:018 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall<br/>
I do to inherit eternal life?<br/></p>
<p id="id00827">42:018:019 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is<br/>
good, save one, that is, God.<br/></p>
<p id="id00828">42:018:020 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not
kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy
father and thy mother.</p>
<p id="id00829">42:018:021 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.</p>
<p id="id00830">42:018:022 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet
lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and
distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in
heaven: and come, follow me.</p>
<p id="id00831">42:018:023 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very
rich.</p>
<p id="id00832">42:018:024 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How
hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of
God!</p>
<p id="id00833">42:018:025 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye,
than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.</p>
<p id="id00834">42:018:026 And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?</p>
<p id="id00835">42:018:027 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are
possible with God.</p>
<p id="id00836">42:018:028 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.</p>
<p id="id00837">42:018:029 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man
that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or
children, for the kingdom of God's sake,</p>
<p id="id00838">42:018:030 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and
in the world to come life everlasting.</p>
<p id="id00839">42:018:031 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold,
we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the
prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.</p>
<p id="id00840">42:018:032 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be<br/>
mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:<br/></p>
<p id="id00841">42:018:033 And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the<br/>
third day he shall rise again.<br/></p>
<p id="id00842">42:018:034 And they understood none of these things: and this saying was<br/>
hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.<br/></p>
<p id="id00843">42:018:035 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a<br/>
certain blind man sat by the way side begging:<br/></p>
<p id="id00844">42:018:036 And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.</p>
<p id="id00845">42:018:037 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.</p>
<p id="id00846">42:018:038 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on
me.</p>
<p id="id00847">42:018:039 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold
his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David,
have mercy on me.</p>
<p id="id00848">42:018:040 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and<br/>
when he was come near, he asked him,<br/></p>
<p id="id00849">42:018:041 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said,<br/>
Lord, that I may receive my sight.<br/></p>
<p id="id00850">42:018:042 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath<br/>
saved thee.<br/></p>
<p id="id00851">42:018:043 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him,
glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave
praise unto God.</p>
