Luke 17
New American Standard Bible
Instructions
17 Now He said to His disciples, “(A)It is inevitable that [a]stumbling blocks come, but woe to one through whom they come! 2 (B)It is better for him if a millstone is hung around his neck and he [b]is thrown into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to [c]sin. 3 [d]Be on your guard! (C)If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. 4 And if he sins against you (D)seven times a day, and returns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
5 (E)The apostles said to (F)the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6 But (G)the Lord said, “If you [e]had faith [f]the size of (H)a mustard seed, you could say to this (I)mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and be planted in the sea’; and it would [g]obey you.
7 “Now which of you, having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him after he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and recline at the table to eat’? 8 On the contrary, will he not say to him, ‘(J)Prepare something for me to eat, and properly [h]clothe yourself and serve me while I eat and drink; and [i]afterward you [j]may eat and drink’? 9 He does not thank the slave because he did the things which were commanded, does he? 10 So you too, when you do all the things which were commanded you, say, ‘We are [k]unworthy slaves; we have done only that which we ought to have done.’”
Ten Men with Leprosy Healed
11 While He was (K)on the way to Jerusalem, (L)He was passing [l]between Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as He entered a village, ten men with leprosy who (M)stood at a distance met Him; 13 and they raised their voices, saying, “Jesus, (N)Master, have mercy on us!” 14 When He saw them, He said to them, “(O)Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were going, they were cleansed. 15 Now one of them, when he saw that he had been healed, turned back, (P)glorifying God with a loud voice, 16 and he fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks to Him. And he was a (Q)Samaritan. 17 But Jesus responded and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But the nine—where are they? 18 [m]Was no one found who returned to (R)give glory to God, except this foreigner?” 19 And He said to him, “Stand up and go; (S)your faith has [n]made you well.”
Second Coming Foretold
20 Now He was questioned by the Pharisees (T)as to when the kingdom of God was coming, and He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God is not coming with [o](U)signs that can be observed; 21 nor will (V)they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or, ‘There it is!’ For behold, the kingdom of God is [p]in your midst.”
22 And He said to the disciples, “(W)The days will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. 23 (X)And they will say to you, ‘Look there,’ or, ‘Look here!’ Do not leave, and do not run after them. 24 (Y)For just like the lightning, when it flashes out of one part [q]of the sky, shines to the other part [r]of the sky, so will the Son of Man be in His day. 25 (Z)But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. 26 (AA)And just as it happened (AB)in the days of Noah, so will it also be in the days of the Son of Man: 27 people were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, and they were being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 [s]It was the same as happened in (AC)the days of Lot: they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, and they were building; 29 but on the day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and [t]brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 It will be [u]just the same on the day that the Son of Man (AD)is revealed. 31 On that day, the one who will be (AE)on the [v]housetop, [w]with his goods in the house, must not go down to take them out; and likewise the one in the field must not turn back. 32 (AF)Remember Lot’s wife. 33 (AG)Whoever strives to [x]save his [y]life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will keep it. 34 I tell you, on that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 (AH)There will be two women grinding at the same place; one will be taken and the other will be left. 36 [[z](AI)Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other will be left.”] 37 And responding, they *said to Him, “Where, Lord?” And He said to them, “(AJ)Where the body is, there also the [aa]vultures will be gathered.”

New King James Version
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! 2 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. 3 Take heed to yourselves. (D)If your brother sins [c]against you, (E)rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. 4 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)
5 And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
6 (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. 7 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’? 8 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’? 9 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.”

Dosa dan pengampunan
(Mat 18:6-7, 21-22; Mrk 9:42)
17 Yesus berkata kepada pengikut-Nya, “Banyak hal pasti akan terjadi yang akan membuat orang berdosa. Tetapi celakalah orang yang membuat ini terjadi. 2 Ada orang-orang di sini yang kelihatannya tidak begitu penting. Tetapi celakalah orang yang menyebabkan salah satu dari mereka ini jatuh ke dalam dosa. Adalah baik baginya jika batu penggilingan diikatkan pada lehernya dan ditenggelamkan ke dalam laut. 3 Berhati-hatilah!
Jika saudara atau saudarimu di dalam keluarga Allah berbuat sesuatu yang salah, tegurlah dia. Jika ia menyesali apa yang diperbuat, ampunilah dia. 4 Bahkan jika ia berbuat sesuatu yang salah terhadapmu tujuh kali dalam sehari, tetapi ia berkata bahwa ia menyesalinya setiap kali, kamu harus memaafkan dia.”
Berapa besar imanmu?
5 Rasul-rasul berkata kepada Tuhan, “Tambahkanlah iman kami!”
6 Tuhan menjawab, “Seandainya imanmu sebesar biji sesawi saja, kamu dapat berkata kepada pohon murbei[a] ini, ‘Tariklah akarmu dan tumbuhkanlah di laut,’ maka pohon itu akan taat kepadamu.”
Jadilah hamba yang baik
7 “Seandainya salah satu dari kalian mempunyai seorang pembantu yang bekerja di ladang, membajak atau menjaga domba. Ketika ia kembali dari kerja, apa yang akan kamu katakan kepadanya? Apakah kamu bilang, ‘Masuklah, duduk dan makan’? 8 Tentu saja tidak! Sebaliknya kamu akan berkata kepada pembantumu, ‘Siapkanlah sesuatu untuk aku makan. Lalu bersiaplah untuk melayaniku. Setelah aku selesai makan dan minum, baru kamu boleh makan.’ 9 Pembantu itu tidak perlu mendapat penghargaan khusus karena melakukan pekerjaannya. Ia melakukan apa yang disuruh majikannya untuk dikerjakan. 10 Demikan juga dengan kamu. Ketika kamu sudah selesai mengerjakan semua yang diperintahkan kepadamu, kamu harus bilang, ‘Kami tidak layak menerima penghargaan khusus. Kami hanya mengerjakan tugas yang seharusnya kami lakukan.’”
Bersyukurlah
11 Yesus melanjutkan perjalanan menuju Yerusalem. Setelah Ia meninggalkan Galilea, Ia melewati perbatasan Samaria. 12 Ia masuk ke sebuah desa, dan bertemu dengan 10 orang laki-laki di sana. Mereka tidak mendekati-Nya, sebab mereka semuanya menderita sakit kusta. 13 Tetapi dengan suara nyaring mereka berteriak, “Yesus! Guru! Tolonglah kami!”
14 Ketika Yesus melihat mereka, Ia berkata, “Pergilah dan tunjukkan dirimu kepada para imam.”[b]
Sementara mereka pergi untuk menemui para imam, mereka menjadi sembuh. 15 Ketika salah satu dari mereka melihat bahwa ia sudah sembuh, ia kembali kepada Yesus. Ia memuji Allah dengan suara yang nyaring. 16 Ia bersujud di kaki Yesus dan berterima kasih kepada-Nya. (Orang itu adalah seorang Samaria.) 17 Yesus berkata, “Sepuluh orang disembuhkan; di mana sembilan orang lainnya? 18 Orang ini bahkan bukan salah satu dari orang kita. Apakah hanya ia yang kembali untuk memuliakan Allah?” 19 Kemudian Yesus berkata kepada orang itu, “Berdirilah! Kamu boleh pergi. Kamu disembuhkan karena kamu percaya.”
Kedatangan kerajaan Allah
(Mat 24:23-28, 37-41)
20 Beberapa orang Farisi bertanya kepada Yesus, “Kapankah Kerajaan Allah akan datang?”
Yesus menjawab, “Kedatangan Kerajaan Allah bukanlah sesuatu yang bisa kamu lihat. 21 Orang tidak akan bilang, ‘Lihat, Kerajaan Allah ada di sini!’ atau ‘Kerajaan Allah ada di sana!’ Tidak, Kerajaan Allah ada di sini bersama kamu.”
22 Kemudian Yesus berkata kepada pengikut-Nya, “Waktunya akan datang di mana kamu rindu sekali untuk melihat satu hari saja ketika Anak Manusia akan ada lagi, tetapi kamu tidak akan dapat melihat-Nya. 23 Orang-orang akan berkata kepadamu, ‘Lihat, Ia di sana!’ atau ‘Lihat, Ia di sini!’ Diamlah di mana kamu berada; jangan pergi mencari Dia. 24 Bersabarlah, sebab ketika Anak Manusia datang lagi, kamu akan mengetahuinya. Pada hari itu Ia akan bercahaya seperti kilat yang menerangi langit dari ujung ke ujung. 25 Tetapi pertama, Anak Manusia harus menderita banyak penderitaan. Orang-orang pada jaman ini akan menolak untuk menerima-Nya.
26 Ketika Anak Manusia datang lagi, itu akan sama seperti pada saat Nuh[c] masih hidup. 27 Orang-orang sedang makan, minum dan menikah bahkan pada saat Nuh masuk ke dalam bahtera. Lalu air bah datang dan memusnahkan mereka semua.
28 Hal yang sama terjadi pada masa hidup Lot,[d] ketika Allah menghancurkan Sodom. Orang-orang di sana sedang makan, minum, berjual beli, menanam, dan membangun rumah-rumah mereka. 29 Tetapi pada hari itu ketika Lot meninggalkan Sodom, api dan belerang jatuh dari langit seperti hujan dan membinasakan mereka semua. 30 Hal yang serupa akan terjadi ketika Anak Manusia datang lagi.
31 Pada hari itu jika ada orang yang berada di atap rumahnya, ia tidak akan mempunyai waktu untuk masuk ke dalam dan mengambil barang-barangnya. Jika ada orang yang berada di ladang, ia tidak bisa kembali ke rumahnya. 32 Ingatlah apa yang terjadi pada istri Lot!
33 Siapa yang berusaha untuk menyelamatkan hidupnya ia akan kehilangan hidupnya. Tetapi siapa yang memberikan hidupnya akan diselamatkan. 34 Pada malam itu, mungkin ada dua orang yang tidur di satu kamar. Yang satu akan diambil dan lainnya akan tertinggal. 35 Dua perempuan akan bekerja menggiling gandum bersama-sama. Satu akan diambil dan lainnya akan tertinggal. [36 Dua orang berada di ladang yang sama. Orang yang satu akan dibawa, tetapi lainnya akan ditinggalkan.]”[e]
37 Pengikut-Nya bertanya kepada Yesus, “Di mana ini akan terjadi, Tuhan?”
Yesus menjawab, “Itu seperti mencari mayat. Engkau akan menemukannya di mana burung pemakan bangkai sedang berkerumunan.”
