30 Jesus, prosseguindo, disse: Um homem descia de Jerusalém a Jericó, e caiu nas mãos de salteadores, os quais o despojaram e espancando-o, se retiraram, deixando-o meio morto.

31 Casualmente, descia pelo mesmo caminho certo sacerdote; e vendo-o, passou de largo.

32 De igual modo também um levita chegou àquele lugar, viu-o, e passou de largo.

33 Mas um samaritano, que ia de viagem, chegou perto dele e, vendo-o, encheu-se de compaixão;

34 e aproximando-se, atou-lhe as feridas, deitando nelas azeite e vinho; e pondo-o sobre a sua cavalgadura, levou-o para uma estalagem e cuidou dele.

35 No dia seguinte tirou dois denários, deu-os ao hospedeiro e disse-lhe: Cuida dele; e tudo o que gastares a mais, eu to pagarei quando voltar.

36 Qual, pois, destes três te parece ter sido o próximo daquele que caiu nas mãos dos salteadores?

37 Respondeu o doutor da lei: Aquele que usou de misericórdia para com ele. Disse-lhe, pois, Jesus: Vai, e faze tu o mesmo.

30 And Jesus, answering him, said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he got into the hands of thieves, who took his clothing and gave him cruel blows, and when they went away, he was half dead.

31 And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he went by on the other side.

32 And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.

33 But a certain man of Samaria, journeying that way, came where he was, and when he saw him, he was moved with pity for him,

34 And came to him and put clean linen round his wounds, with oil and wine; and he put him on his beast and took him to a house and took care of him.

35 And the day after he took two pennies and gave them to the owner of the house and said, Take care of him; and if this money is not enough, when I come again I will give you whatever more is needed.

36 Which of these three men, in your opinion, was neighbour to the man who came into the hands of thieves?

37 And he said, The one who had mercy on him. And Jesus said, Go and do the same.
