Ten Men Healed

11 While traveling to Jerusalem,(A) he passed between[a] Samaria and Galilee.(B) 12 As he entered a village, ten men with leprosy[b](C) met him. They stood at a distance 13 and raised their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master,(D) have mercy on us!”

14 When he saw them, he told them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.”(E) And while they were going, they were cleansed.

15 But one of them, seeing that he was healed, returned and, with a loud voice, gave glory to God.(F) 16 He fell facedown(G) at his feet, thanking him. And he was a Samaritan.(H)

17 Then Jesus said, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? 18 Didn’t any return to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19 And he told him, “Get up and go on your way. Your faith has saved you.”[c](I)

11 On the way to Jerusalem Jesus[a] was going through the region between Samaria and Galilee.(A) 12 As he entered a village, ten men with a skin disease approached him. Keeping their distance,(B) 13 they called out, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” 14 When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were made clean.(C) 15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice.(D) 16 He prostrated himself at Jesus’s[b] feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan.(E) 17 Then Jesus asked, “Were not ten made clean? So where are the other nine? 18 Did none of them return to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19 Then he said to him, “Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well.”(F)
