Jesus Cleanses Ten Lepers

¹¹^(A)On the way to Jerusalem ^(B)he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. ¹²And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers,^[a] ^(C)who stood at a distance ¹³and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” ¹⁴When he saw them he said to them, “Go and ^(D)show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. ¹⁵Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, ^(E)praising God with a loud voice; ¹⁶and ^(F)he fell on his face at Jesus' feet, giving him thanks. Now he was ^(G)a Samaritan. ¹⁷Then Jesus answered, “Were not ^(H)ten cleansed? Where are the nine? ¹⁸Was no one found to return and ^(I)give praise to God except this ^(J)foreigner?” ¹⁹And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; ^(K)your faith has ^(L)made you well.”^[b]
