Luke

Luke 17:12–19

¹²As He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers.^a They stood at a distance ¹³and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

¹⁴When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.”^b And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

¹⁵When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice. ¹⁶He fell facedown at Jesus’ feet in thanksgiving to Him — and he was a Samaritan.

¹⁷“Were not all ten cleansed?” Jesus asked. “Where then are the other nine? ¹⁸Was no one found except this foreigner to return and give glory to God?”

¹⁹Then Jesus said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well!^c”
