The Good Samaritan

Luke 10:25-37

Chapter 10
25 And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" 26 But he said to him, "What is written in the Law? How do you read it?" 27 And he answered and said, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself." 28 But he said to him, "You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live." 29 But wanting to justify himself, he said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" 30 But Jesus took up the word and said, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among robbers, who both stripped him and inflicted blows on him, and went away, leaving him half-dead." 31 Now by coincidence a priest was coming down that road. When he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. 32 Likewise, a Levite also, coming alongside the place and seeing him, passed by on the opposite side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was. When he saw him, he had compassion. 34 Approaching, he bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He put him on his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 The next day, he gave two denarii to the innkeeper and said, "Take care of him, and whatever more you spend, I will repay when I return." 36 Which of these three seems to you to have become the neighbor of the one who fell among the temple robbers? 37 He said, "The one who showed him mercy." Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."
