New American Standard Bible
25 (A)And behold, a [a](B)lawyer stood up and put Him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 And He said to him, “What is written in the Law? [b]How does it read to you?” 27 And he answered, “(C)You shall love the Lord your God [c]with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And He said to him, “You have answered correctly; (D)do this and you will live.” 29 But wanting (E)to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

New International Version
The Parable of the Good Samaritan(A)
25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(B)
26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”
27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[a];(C) and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b]”(D)
28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”(E)
29 But he wanted to justify himself,(F) so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
