17:1And he said to his disciples: "It is impossible that stumbling-blocks should not come: but woe to him through whom they come. 17:2It is more useful for him if a millstone is placed around his neck, and he is thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble. 17:3Take heed to yourselves: If your brother sins against you, rebuke him: and if he does penance, forgive him. 17:4And if seven times in a day he sins against you, and seven times in a day turns back to you, saying: 'I repent', forgive him." 17:5And the apostles said to the Lord: "Increase faith for us."
17:6And the Lord said: "If you have faith like a grain of mustard, you will say to this mulberry tree: 'Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea', and it will obey you. 17:7But which of you, having a servant ploughing or pasturing, would say to him when he has come back from the field: 'Come over at once, recline': and would not say to him: 'Make ready what I may dine on, and gird yourself, and serve me until I eat and drink, and after these things you will eat and drink'? 17:9Surely he does not have thanks for that servant, because he did the things which he had commanded him?
17:10I do not think so. 17:10So you too, when you have done all the things which have been commanded you, say: 'We are useless servants: what we ought to have done, we have done.'" 17:11And it was done, while he was going to Jerusalem, that he was passing through the middle of Samaria and Galilee. 17:12And when he was entering a certain village, ten leprous men met him, who stood far off: and they lifted up their voice, saying: "Jesus, master, have pity on us." 17:14And when he saw them, he said: "Go, show yourselves to the priests." 17:14And it was done, while they were going, that they were cleansed.
17:15But one of them, when he saw that he had been cleansed, went back, with a great voice glorifying God, and fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks: and this man was a Samaritan. 17:17And Jesus, answering, said: "Were not ten cleansed? 17:17And the nine, where are they? 17:18There has not been found one who returned and gave glory to God, except this foreigner." 17:19And he said to him: "Get up, go: because your faith has made you safe." 17:20And being asked by the Pharisees: "When does the kingdom of God come?" 17:20answering them, he said: "The kingdom of God does not come with watching: nor will they say: 'Look, here', or 'Look, there.' 17:21For look, the kingdom of God is within you."
17:22And he said to his disciples: "Days will come when you will long to see one day of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. 17:23And they will say to you: 'Look, here', and 'Look, there.' 17:23Do not go, nor follow: for, just as the lightning, flashing from under the sky, shines onto the things which are under the sky: so will the Son of Man be in his day. 17:25But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation. 17:26And just as it was done in the days of Noah, so will it be also in the days of the Son of Man: they were eating and drinking: they were marrying wives and being given in marriage, until the day on which Noah went into the ark: and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
17:28Likewise, just as it was done in the days of Lot: they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building: but on the day on which Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from heaven, and destroyed them all: according to these things will it be on the day on which the Son of Man will be revealed. 17:31In that hour, he who is on the roof, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them: and he who is in the field, likewise let him not return back. 17:32Be mindful of the wife of Lot. 17:33Whoever has sought to make his life safe will lose it: and whoever has lost it will bring it to life.
17:34I say to you: On that night there will be two in one bed: one will be taken up, and the other will be left: two women will be grinding together: one will be taken up, and the other will be left: two men in the field: one will be taken up, and the other will be left." 17:36Answering, they say to him: "Where, Lord?" 17:37He said to them: "Wherever the body is, there will the eagles too be gathered."
