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.

34 Ed accostatosi, fasciò le sue piaghe, versandovi sopra dell’olio, e del vino; poi lo mise sopra la sua propria cavalcatura, e lo menò nell’albergo, e si prese cura di lui.
35 E il giorno appresso, partendo, trasse fuori due denari, e li diede all’oste, e gli disse: Prenditi cura di costui; e tutto ciò che spenderai di più, io tel renderò quando io ritornerò.
36 Quale adunque di questi tre ti pare essere stato il prossimo di colui che si abbattè ne’ ladroni?
37 Ed egli disse: Colui che usò misericordia inverso lui. Gesù adunque gli disse: Va’, e fa’ tu il simigliante
