¹ Now he said to the disciples, It is inevitable for offenses not to come, but woe to him, through whom they come!

² It is beneficial for him if a millstone rotated by a donkey encompassed around his neck, and he has been tossed into the sea, rather than that$ he should offend one of these little ones.

³ Take-heed° to yourselves; and if your brother sins at {i.e., against} you, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.

⁴ And if he sins at {i.e., against} you seven-times in the day, and should return seven-times in the day, saying, I repent. You will be forgiving him.

⁵ And the apostles said to the Lord, Add more faith to us.

⁶ Now the Lord said, If you° have faith like a kernel of a mustard-seed, you° would have spoken to this mulberry fig tree, Be uprooted and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed$ you°.

⁷ But who out-of you° has a bondservant plowing or shepherding and after he entered in from the field and has passed-beside you, will immediately say to him, Lean-back at the table.

⁸ But will he not rather say to him, Prepare what I may dine on. And after you have girded yourself, serve me, until I eat and drink and you may eat and may drink after these things.

⁹ He does not have gratitude to that bondservant because he did$ the things which were commanded him, does he? I think not.

¹⁰ So also you°, whenever you° do$ all the things which were commanded to you°, say°, We are useless bondservants, because we have done$ what we ought to do. {Luk 17:11-37; Borders of Samaria and Galilee; Luk 18:1-14; early 30 AD; no parallels.}

¹¹ And it happened, while$ he himself was traveling to Jerusalem, even he himself was going through the middle of Samaria and Galilee.

¹² And while entering into a certain village, ten men who are lepers encountered him, who stood faraway from people.

¹³ and they themselves lifted up their voice, saying, Jesus, Master$, show-mercy on us.

¹⁴ And he saw them and said to them, After traveling back, show° yourselves to the priests. And it happened, while$ they were proceeding-away, they were cleansed.

¹⁵ Now one out-of them saw that he was healed and returned with a loud voice, glorifying God;

¹⁶ and he fell upon his face beside his feet, giving-thanks to him, and he himself was a Samaritan.

¹⁷ But Jesus answered and said, Were not the ten cleansed, but where are the nine?

¹⁸ Were not any found, except this immigrant, who returned to give glory to God?

¹⁹ And he said to him, After you have stood up, travel on. Your faith has cured you.

²⁰ And he was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God is coming, and he answered them and said, The kingdom of God is not coming with observation;

²¹ nor will they say, Behold, here! Or, behold there! For$ behold, the kingdom of God is within you°.

²² Now he said to the disciples, The days will be coming, when you° will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you° will not see it.

²³ And they will say to you°, Behold here! Or behold there! Do° not go away, nor pursue them.

²⁴ For$ just-like the lightning, the one flashing from the one end under heaven, and shines to the other end under heaven; so will the Son of Man be in his day.

²⁵ But first it is essential for him to suffer many things and to be rejected$ away from this generation.

²⁶ And just-as it happened in the days of Noah, so it will also be in the days of the Son of Man.

²⁷ They were eating; they were drinking; they were marrying; they were being given-in-marriage, till which day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

²⁸ Likewise, even as it happened in the days of Lot; they were eating; they were drinking; they were buying; they were selling; they were planting; they were building;

²⁹ but on the day which Lot went forth from Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.

³⁰ According-to these things, it will be in the day which the Son of Man is revealed.

³¹ He who will be upon the housetop in that day, and has his goods in the house, let him not go-down to take them up, and the one who is in the field, likewise, let him not turn behind for them.

³² Remember° Lot’s wife. {Gen 19:26}

³³ Whoever should seek to save his life will be losing it, and whoever loses it will be preserving it.

³⁴ I say to you°, There will be two upon one bed in this night; the one will be taken and the other one will be left.

³⁵ Two will be grinding at the same place; the one will be taken and the other one will be left.

³⁶

³⁷ And they answered and say to him, Where, Lord? Now he said to them, Where the body is, the vultures will also be gathered together there.
