Luke 17:5-19

New International Version

⁵ The apostles^(A) said to the Lord,^(B) “Increase our faith!”

⁶ He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed,^(C) you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.^(D)

⁷ “Suppose one of you has a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Will he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, ‘Come along now and sit down to eat’? ⁸ Won’t he rather say, ‘Prepare my supper, get yourself ready and wait on me^(E) while I eat and drink; after that you may eat and drink’? ⁹ Will he thank the servant because he did what he was told to do? ¹⁰ So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”^(F)

Jesus Heals Ten Men With Leprosy

¹¹ Now on his way to Jerusalem,^(G) Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee.^{(H) 12} As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy^[a](I) met him. They stood at a distance^{(J) 13} and called out in a loud voice, “Jesus, Master,^(K) have pity on us!”

¹⁴ When he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.”^(L) And as they went, they were cleansed.

¹⁵ One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God^(M) in a loud voice. ¹⁶ He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan.^(N)

¹⁷ Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? ¹⁸ Has no one returned to give praise to God except this foreigner?” ¹⁹ Then he said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”^(O)
