25And look! A certain lawyer arose to test him, saying, Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?26Then he said to him, "What has been written in the law? How do you read it?"27Then he answered and said, You shall love the Lord your God out from all your heart and in all your soul and in all your strength and in all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.28Then he said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this and you will live."29Then he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?30Then Jesus took up the question and said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among robbers, who stripped him, put wounds on him, and went away, leaving him half dead.31Now by chance a certain priest was going down on that road, and when he saw him he passed by.32Likewise a Levite also came to the place, and when he saw him he passed by.33Then a certain Samaritan who was journeying came to him, and when he saw him he was moved with compassion.34He came near, bound up his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and cared for him.35On the next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, Take care of him, and whatever more you spend I will repay you when I return.36Which of these three seems to you to have become a neighbor to the one who fell among the robbers?37He said, "The one who did the mercy with him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and you do similarly."
