31 And the second, like it, is this: (A)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than (B)these.”

32 So the scribe said to Him, “Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, (C)and there is no other but He. 33 And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, [a]with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, (D)is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

34 Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.”

(E)But after that no one dared question Him.

27 So he answered and said, (A)‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and (B)‘your neighbor as yourself.’

28 And He said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and (C)you will live.”

29 But he, wanting to (D)justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

30 Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among [a]thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, (E)he passed by on the other side. 32 Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain (F)Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had (G)compassion. 34 So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; and he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 On the next day, [b]when he departed, he took out two (H)denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.’ 36 So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?”

37 And he said, “He who showed mercy on him.”

Then Jesus said to him, (I)“Go and do likewise.”
