Luke 17
New International Version
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) 2 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) 3 So watch yourselves.
“If your brother or sister[a] sins against you, rebuke them;(E) and if they repent, forgive them.(F) 4 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)
5 The apostles(H) said to the Lord,(I) “Increase our faith!”
6 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)
7 “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’? 8 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’? 9 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)

El pecado, la fe y el deber
17 Luego dijo Jesús a sus discípulos:
—Los tropiezos son inevitables, pero ¡ay de aquel que los ocasiona! 2 Más le valdría ser arrojado al mar con una piedra de molino atada al cuello que servir de tropiezo a uno solo de estos pequeños. 3 Así que, ¡cuídense!
»Si tu hermano peca, repréndelo; y si se arrepiente, perdónalo. 4 Aun si peca contra ti siete veces en un día, y siete veces regresa a decirte que se arrepiente, perdónalo.
5 Entonces los apóstoles dijeron al Señor:
—¡Aumenta nuestra fe!
6 —Si ustedes tuvieran una fe tan pequeña como una semilla de mostaza —respondió el Señor—, podrían decirle a este árbol sicómoro: “Arráncate de aquí y plántate en el mar” y les obedecería.
7 »Supongamos que uno de ustedes tiene un siervo que ha estado arando el campo o cuidando las ovejas. Cuando el siervo regresa del campo, ¿acaso le diría “ven enseguida a sentarte a la mesa”? 8 ¿No le diría más bien “prepárame la comida y cámbiate de ropa para atenderme mientras yo ceno; después tú podrás cenar”? 9 ¿Acaso le daría las gracias al siervo por haber hecho lo que se le mandó? 10 Así también ustedes, cuando hayan hecho todo lo que se les ha mandado, deben decir: “Somos siervos inútiles; no hemos hecho más que cumplir con nuestro deber”.
Jesús sana a diez enfermos de la piel
11 Un día, siguiendo su viaje a Jerusalén, Jesús pasaba por Samaria y Galilea. 12 Cuando estaba por entrar en un pueblo, salieron a su encuentro diez hombres que tenían enferma la piel. Como se habían quedado a cierta distancia, 13 gritaron:
—¡Jesús, Maestro, ten compasión de nosotros!
14 Al verlos, les dijo:
—Vayan a presentarse a los sacerdotes.
Resultó que, mientras iban de camino, quedaron limpios.
15 Uno de ellos, al verse ya sano, regresó alabando a Dios a grandes voces. 16 Cayó rostro en tierra a los pies de Jesús y le dio las gracias, no obstante que era samaritano.
17 —¿Acaso no quedaron limpios los diez? —preguntó Jesús—. ¿Dónde están los otros nueve? 18 ¿No hubo ninguno que regresara a dar gloria a Dios, excepto este extranjero? 19 Levántate y vete —dijo al hombre—; tu fe te ha sanado.
La venida del reino de Dios(A)
20 Los fariseos preguntaron a Jesús cuándo iba a venir el reino de Dios y él les respondió:
—La venida del reino de Dios no es algo que se pueda observar. 21 No van a decir: “¡Mírenlo acá! ¡Mírenlo allá!”. Dense cuenta de que el reino de Dios está entre[a] ustedes.
22 A sus discípulos les dijo:
—Llegará el tiempo en que ustedes anhelarán vivir siquiera uno de los días del Hijo del hombre, pero no podrán. 23 Les dirán: “¡Mírenlo allá! ¡Mírenlo acá!”. No vayan; no los sigan. 24 Porque en su día[b] el Hijo del hombre será como el relámpago que destella e ilumina el cielo de un extremo al otro. 25 Pero antes él tiene que sufrir muchas cosas y ser rechazado por esta generación.
26 »Tal como sucedió en tiempos de Noé, así también será cuando venga el Hijo del hombre. 27 Comían, bebían, se casaban y daban en casamiento, hasta el día en que Noé entró en el arca; entonces llegó el diluvio y los destruyó a todos.
28 »Lo mismo sucedió en tiempos de Lot: comían y bebían, compraban y vendían, sembraban y edificaban. 29 Pero el día en que Lot salió de Sodoma, llovió del cielo fuego y azufre y acabó con todos.
30 »Así será el día en que se manifieste el Hijo del hombre. 31 En aquel día, el que esté en la azotea y tenga sus cosas dentro de la casa, que no baje a buscarlas. Así mismo el que esté en el campo, que no regrese por lo que haya dejado atrás. 32 ¡Acuérdense de la esposa de Lot! 33 El que procure conservar su vida la perderá; y el que la pierda la conservará. 34 Les digo que en aquella noche estarán dos personas en una misma cama: una será llevada y la otra será dejada. 35 Dos mujeres estarán moliendo juntas: una será llevada y la otra será dejada». 36 [c]
37 —¿Dónde, Señor? —preguntaron.
—Donde esté el cadáver, allí se reunirán los buitres —respondió él.

King James Version
17 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
4 And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.
5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?
8 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?
9 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.
10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.
11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
16 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.
20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.
23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.
24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.
26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.
32 Remember Lot's wife.
33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
