1 Then He said to the disciples, It is impossible but that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to him through whom they do come!2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.3 Take heed to yourselves. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.4 And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, I repent, you shall forgive him.5 And the apostles said to the Lord, Give us more faith.6 So the Lord said, If you have faith as a mustard seed, you might say to this sycamine tree, Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea, and it would obey you.7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, Come, sit down to eat?8 But will he not rather say to him, Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink?9 Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not.10 So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.11 Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.12 And as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off.13 And they lifted up their voices and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!14 So when He saw them, He said to them, Go, show yourselves to the priests. And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed.15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God,16 and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.17 So Jesus answered and said, Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine?18 Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?19 And He said to him, Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.20 And when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation;21 nor will they say, See here; or, See there; for behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.22 And He said to the disciples, The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.23 And they will say to you, Look here; or, Look there. Do not go away nor follow.24 For as the lightning that flashes out of one part under the heavens, shines to the other part under the heavens, so also the Son of Man will be in His day.25 But first He must suffer many things and be rejected from this generation.26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.30 Even in the same way will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.31 In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not return back.32 Remember Lots wife.33 Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it.34 I tell you, in that night there will be two in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left.35 Two will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left.36 Two will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.37 And they answered and said to Him, Where, Lord? And He said to them, Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together.
1 And Jhesu seide to hise disciplis, It is impossible that sclaundris come not; but wo to that man, bi whom thei comen.2 It is more profitable to him, if a mylne stoon be put aboute his necke, and he be cast in to the see, than that he sclaundre oon of these litle.3 Take ye hede you silf; if thi brothir hath synned ayens thee, blame hym; and if he do penaunce, foryyue hym.4 And if seuene sithis in the dai he do synne ayens thee, and seuene sithis in the dai he be conuertid to thee, and seie, It forthenkith me, foryyue thou hym.5 And the apostlis seiden to the Lord, Encrese to vs feith.6 And the Lord seide, If ye han feith as the corn of seneuei, ye schulen seie to this more tre, Be thou drawun vp bi the rote, and be ouerplauntid in to the see, and it schal obeie to you.7 But who of you hath a seruaunt erynge, or lesewynge oxis, which seith to hym, whanne he turneth ayen fro the feeld, Anoon go, and sitte to mete;8 and seith not to hym, Make redi, that Y soupe, and girde thee, and serue me, while Y ete and drynke, and aftir this thou schalt ete and drynke;9 whether he hath grace to that seruaunt, for he dide that that he comaundide hym?10 Nay, Y gesse. So ye, whanne ye han don alle thingis that ben comaundid to you, seie ye, We ben vnprofitable seruauntis, we han do that that we ouyten to do.11 And it was do, the while Jhesus wente in to Jerusalem, he passide thorou the myddis of Samarie, and Galilee.12 And whanne he entride in to a castel, ten leprouse men camen ayens hym, whiche stoden afer,13 and reiseden her voys, and seiden, Jhesu, comaundoure, haue merci on vs.14 And as he say hem, he seide, Go ye, `schewe ye you to the prestis. And it was don, the while thei wenten, thei weren clensid.15 And oon of hem, as he saiy that he was clensid, wente ayen, magnifiynge God with grete vois.16 And he fel doun on the face bifore hise feet, and dide thankyngis; and this was a Samaritan.17 And Jhesus answerde, and seide, Whether ten ben not clensid, and where ben the nyne?18 There is noon foundun, that turnede ayen, and yaf glorie to God, but this alien.19 And he seide to hym, Rise vp, go thou; for thi feith hath maad thee saaf.20 And he was axid of Farisees, whanne the rewme of God cometh. And he answerde to hem, and seide, The rewme of God cometh not with aspiyng,21 nether thei schulen seie, Lo! here, or lo there; for lo! the rewme of God is with ynne you.22 And he seide to hise disciplis, Daies schulen come, whanne ye schulen desire to se o dai of mannus sone, and ye schulen not se.23 And thei schulen seie to you, Lo! here, and lo there. Nyle ye go, nether sue ye;24 for as leyt schynynge from vndur heuene schyneth in to tho thingis that ben vndur heuene, so schal mannus sone be in his dai.25 But first it bihoueth hym to suffre many thingis, and to be repreued of this generacioun.26 And as it was doon in the daies of Noe, so it schal be in the daies of mannys sone.27 Thei eeten and drunkun, weddiden wyues, and weren youun to weddyngis, til in to the dai in the whych Noe entride in to the schip; and the greet flood cam, and loste alle.28 Also as it was don in the daies of Loth, thei eeten and drunkun, bouyten and seelden, plauntiden and bildiden; but the dai that Loth wente out of Sodome,29 the Lord reynede fier and brymstoon fro heuene, and loste alle.30 Lijk this thing it schal be, in what dai mannys sone schal be schewid.31 In that our he that is in the roof, and his vessels in the hous, come he not doun to take hem awei; and he that schal be in the feeld, also turne not ayen bihynde.32 Be ye myndeful of the wijf of Loth.33 Who euer seketh to make his lijf saaf, schal leese it; and who euer leesith it, schal quykene it.34 But Y seie to you, in that nyyt twei schulen be in o bed, oon schal be takun, and the tothir forsakun;35 twei wymmen schulen be gryndynge togidir, `the toon schal be takun, and `the tother forsakun; twei in a feeld, `the toon schal be takun, and `the tother left.36 Thei answeren, and seien to hym, Where, Lord?37 Which seide to hym, Where euer the bodi schal be, thidur schulen be gaderid togidere also the eglis.
