Luke 9:52-56
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
52 And he sent messengers before his face; and going, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.
53 And they received him not, because his face was of one going to Jerusalem.
54 And when his disciples James and John had seen this, they said: Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?
55 And turning, he rebuked them, saying: You know not of what spirit you are.
56 The Son of man came not to destroy souls, but to save. And they went into another town.

52 And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan(A) village to get things ready for him; 53 but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem. 54 When the disciples James and John(B) saw this, they asked, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them[a]?”(C) 55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them. 56 Then he and his disciples went to another village.
