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.
