Navođenje na grijeh

(Mt 18,6-7.21-22; Mk 9,42)

17 Isus je rekao svojim učenicima: »Neizbježno je da će se događati stvari koje navode ljude na grijeh, ali jao onome tko to čini! Bilo bi bolje za njega da mu objese mlinski kamen[a] oko vrata i bace ga u more nego da navede na grijeh jednoga od ovih malenih. Čuvajte se!

Ako tvoj brat griješi, ukori ga! Ako se pokaje, oprosti mu! I ako sedam puta na dan sagriješi protiv tebe i sedam puta dođe k tebi i kaže ti: ‘Kajem se’, oprosti mu!«

Vjera

Tada su apostoli rekli Gospodinu: »Daj nam više vjere!«

A Gospodin im je odgovorio: »Kad bi vam vjera bila velika kao gorušičino zrno, mogli biste reći ovom dudu: ‘Iščupaj se s korijenom i posadi u more’ i on bi vas poslušao.«

Dobri sluga

»Recimo da netko od vas ima slugu koji ore ili se brine za ovce. Kad se sluga vrati iz polja, hoće li mu reći: ‘Dođi sada, sjedni i jedi’? Neće li mu, umjesto toga, reći ovako: ‘Priredi mi večeru! Stavi na sebe pregaču i posluži me jelom i pićem! A nakon toga, možeš i ti jesti i piti.’ Duguje li slugi zahvalnost zato što je učinio ono što mu je bilo zapovjeđeno? 10 Isto je i s vama: kad završite sve ono što vam je zapovjeđeno, trebali biste reći: ‘Sluge smo koje ne zaslužuju pohvale; učinili smo samo što nam je bila dužnost.’«

Zahvalnost

11 Dok je Isus išao prema Jeruzalemu, prolazio je uz granicu Samarije i Galileje. 12 Na ulazu u jedno selo sreo je desetoricu gubavaca. 13 Stojeći na udaljenosti, povikali su iz svega glasa: »Isuse, Gospodaru, smiluj nam se!«

14 Kad ih je Isus ugledao, rekao im je: »Pokažite se svećenicima!«[b]

Dok su išli prema svećenicima, bili su iscijeljeni. 15 Kad je jedan od njih vidio da je ozdravio, vratio se k Isusu i iz svega glasa slavio Boga. 16 Pao je pred Isusove noge i zahvalio mu. Taj je čovjek bio Samarijanac. 17 Isus mu je rekao: »Zar se nisu sva desetorica očistila od gube? Gdje su ostala devetorica? 18 Zar se ni jedan od njih, osim ovoga stranca, nije vratio da iskaže zahvalnost Bogu?« 19 Zatim mu je rekao: »Ustani i idi! Tvoja te vjera ozdravila.«

Božje je kraljevstvo među vama

(Mt 24,23-28.37-41)

20 Kad su farizeji jednom pitali Isusa kad će doći Božje kraljevstvo, on im je odgovorio: »Božje kraljevstvo ne dolazi tako da ga ljudi vide.

21 Ljudi neće reći: ‘Ovdje je!’ ili ‘Ondje je!’ jer je Božje kraljevstvo među vama.«

22 A svojim je učenicima rekao: »Doći će vrijeme kad ćete čeznuti da vidite makar jedan dan Sina Čovječjega, ali ga nećete vidjeti. 23 A ljudi će vam reći: ‘Ondje je!’ ili ‘Ovdje je!’ Ne idite onamo i ne slijedite ih! 24 Jer, toga dana dolazak Sina Čovječjega bit će poput munje koja bljesne i osvijetli nebo s jednoga kraja na drugi. 25 No najprije će on mnogo toga pretrpjeti, a ljudi ovoga naraštaja će ga odbaciti. 26 Kao što je bilo u vrijeme Noe, tako će biti u dane Sina Čovječjeg: 27 ljudi su jeli, pili, ženili se i udavali, sve dok Noa nije ušao u arku. Tada je došao potop i sve ih pobio. 28 Bit će kao što je bilo i u Lotovo vrijeme: ljudi su jeli, pili, kupovali, prodavali, sadili i gradili. 29 No onoga dana kad je Lot izašao iz Sodome, s neba je udarila vatra i sumpor i svi su bili pobijeni. 30 Tako će biti i na dan kad se pojavi Sin Čovječji.

31 Onaj tko se toga dana zatekne na krovu, neka ne silazi u kuću po svoje stvari! Isto tako, ako tko bude u polju, neka se ne vraća! 32 Sjetite se Lotove žene! 33 Tko se bude trudio sačuvati svoj život, izgubit će ga. A tko god izgubi svoj život, dobit će ga. 34 Kažem vam, te noći dvojica će ležati u jednoj sobi; jedan će se uzeti, a drugi ostaviti. 35 Dvije će žene zajedno mljeti žito; jedna će se uzeti, a druga ostaviti.« 36 [c]

37 Učenici su ga pitali: »Gdje će to biti, Gospodine?«

A on im je odgovorio: »Gdje leže mrtva tijela, ondje će se skupljati i lešinari.«

Sin, Faith, Duty

17 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble(A) are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come.(B) It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones(C) to stumble.(D) So watch yourselves.

“If your brother or sister[a] sins against you, rebuke them;(E) and if they repent, forgive them.(F) Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.”(G)

The apostles(H) said to the Lord,(I) “Increase our faith!”

He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed,(J) you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.(K)

“Suppose one of you has a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Will he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, ‘Come along now and sit down to eat’? Won’t he rather say, ‘Prepare my supper, get yourself ready and wait on me(L) while I eat and drink; after that you may eat and drink’? Will he thank the servant because he did what he was told to do? 10 So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”(M)

Jesus Heals Ten Men With Leprosy

11 Now on his way to Jerusalem,(N) Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee.(O) 12 As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy[b](P) met him. They stood at a distance(Q) 13 and called out in a loud voice, “Jesus, Master,(R) have pity on us!”

14 When he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.”(S) And as they went, they were cleansed.

15 One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God(T) in a loud voice. 16 He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan.(U)

17 Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? 18 Has no one returned to give praise to God except this foreigner?” 19 Then he said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”(V)

The Coming of the Kingdom of God(W)

20 Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come,(X) Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, 21 nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’(Y) because the kingdom of God is in your midst.”[c]

22 Then he said to his disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man,(Z) but you will not see it.(AA) 23 People will tell you, ‘There he is!’ or ‘Here he is!’ Do not go running off after them.(AB) 24 For the Son of Man in his day[d] will be like the lightning,(AC) which flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other. 25 But first he must suffer many things(AD) and be rejected(AE) by this generation.(AF)

26 “Just as it was in the days of Noah,(AG) so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. 27 People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28 “It was the same in the days of Lot.(AH) People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29 But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30 “It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.(AI) 31 On that day no one who is on the housetop, with possessions inside, should go down to get them. Likewise, no one in the field should go back for anything.(AJ) 32 Remember Lot’s wife!(AK) 33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.(AL) 34 I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed; one will be taken and the other left. 35 Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left.”(AM) [36] [e]

37 “Where, Lord?” they asked.

He replied, “Where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather.”(AN)

Jesus Warns of Offenses(A)

17 Then He said to the disciples, (B)“It is impossible that no [a]offenses should come, but (C)woe to him through whom they do come! It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should [b]offend one of these little ones. Take heed to yourselves. (D)If your brother sins [c]against you, (E)rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns [d]to you, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”

Faith and Duty(F)

And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”

(G)So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you. And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’? But will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself (H)and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink’? Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded [e]him? I think not. 10 So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, ‘We are (I)unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.’ ”

Ten Lepers Cleansed

11 Now it happened (J)as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, (K)who stood afar off. 13 And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14 So when He saw them, He said to them, (L)“Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed.

15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice (M)glorified God, 16 and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a (N)Samaritan.

17 So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? 18 Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19 (O)And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”

The Coming of the Kingdom(P)

20 Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with observation; 21 (Q)nor will they say, [f]‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, (R)the kingdom of God is [g]within you.”

22 Then He said to the disciples, (S)“The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. 23 (T)And they will say to you, [h]‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them. 24 (U)For as the lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven shines to the other part under heaven, so also the Son of Man will be in His day. 25 (V)But first He must suffer many things and be (W)rejected by this generation. 26 (X)And as it (Y)was in the (Z)days of (AA)Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the (AB)day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and (AC)destroyed them all. 28 (AD)Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on (AE)the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man (AF)is revealed.

31 “In that day, he (AG)who is on the housetop, and his [i]goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not turn back. 32 (AH)Remember Lot’s wife. 33 (AI)Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it. 34 (AJ)I tell you, in that night there will be two [j]men in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 (AK)Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left. 36 [k]Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.”

37 And they answered and said to Him, (AL)“Where, Lord?”

So He said to them, “Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together.”

Temptations to Sin

17 And he said to his disciples, (A)“Temptations to sin[a] are (B)sure to come, but (C)woe to the one through whom they come! (D)It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.[b] Pay attention to yourselves!

Increase Our Faith

(I)The apostles said to the Lord, (J)“Increase our faith!” And the Lord said, (K)“If you had faith like (L)a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this (M)mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.

Unworthy Servants

“Will any one of you who has a servant[c] plowing or keeping sheep say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and recline at table’? Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, and (N)dress properly,[d] and serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’? Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded? 10 So you also, when you have done all that you were commanded, say, ‘We are (O)unworthy servants;[e] we have only done what was our duty.’”

Jesus Cleanses Ten Lepers

11 (P)On the way to Jerusalem (Q)he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers,[f] (R)who stood at a distance 13 and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” 14 When he saw them he said to them, “Go and (S)show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. 15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, (T)praising God with a loud voice; 16 and (U)he fell on his face at Jesus' feet, giving him thanks. Now he was (V)a Samaritan. 17 Then Jesus answered, “Were not (W)ten cleansed? Where are the nine? 18 Was no one found to return and (X)give praise to God except this (Y)foreigner?” 19 And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; (Z)your faith has (AA)made you well.”[g]

The Coming of the Kingdom

20 Being asked by the Pharisees (AB)when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them, “The kingdom of God (AC)is not coming in ways that can be observed, 21 nor (AD)will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.”[h]

22 And he said to the disciples, (AE)“The days are coming when you will desire (AF)to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. 23 (AG)And they will say to you, ‘Look, there!’ or ‘Look, here!’ Do not go out or follow them. 24 (AH)For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be (AI)in his day.[i] 25 But first (AJ)he must suffer many things and (AK)be rejected by this generation. 26 (AL)Just as it was in the days of (AM)Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man. 27 (AN)They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise, just as it was in the days of (AO)Lot—they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building, 29 (AP)but on the day when Lot went out from Sodom, fire and sulfur rained from heaven and destroyed them all— 30 so will it be (AQ)on the day when the Son of Man is revealed. 31 On that day, (AR)let the one who is on (AS)the housetop, with his goods in the house, not come down to take them away, and likewise let the one who is in the field not turn back. 32 (AT)Remember Lot's wife. 33 (AU)Whoever seeks to preserve his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will (AV)keep it. 34 I tell you, in that night there will be two in one bed. One will be taken and the other left. 35 (AW)There will be two women (AX)grinding together. One will be taken and the other left.”[j] 37 And they said to him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, (AY)“Where the corpse[k] is, there the vultures[l] will gather.”
