017:011 As they pursued their journey to Jerusalem, He passed through
Samaria and Galilee.
017:012 And as He entered a certain village, ten men met Him who were
lepers and stood at a distance.
017:013 In loud voices they cried out, "Jesus, Rabbi, take pity on us."
017:014 Perceiving this, He said to them, "Go and show yourselves
to the Priests." And while on their way to do this they
were made clean.
017:015 One of them, seeing that he was cured, came back, adoring and
praising God in a loud voice,
017:016 and he threw himself at the feet of Jesus, thanking Him.
He was a Samaritan.
017:017 "Were not all ten made clean?" Jesus asked; "but where
are the nine?
017:018 Have none been found to come back and give glory to God
except this foreigner?"
017:019 And He said to him, "Rise and go: your faith has cured you."
017:020 Being asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God was coming,
He answered, "The Kingdom of God does not so come that you
can stealthily watch for it.
017:021 Nor will they say, `See here!' or `See there!'--for the Kingdom
of God is within you."
017:022 Then, turning to His disciples, He said, "There will come a time
when you will wish you could see a single one of the days
of the Son of Man, but will not see one.
017:023 And they will say to you, `See there!' `See here!'
Do not start off and go in pursuit.
017:024 For just as the lightning, when it flashes, shines from one part
of the horizon to the opposite part, so will the Son of Man
be on His day.
