Chronological

¹¹ And it came to pass as he was going up to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

¹² And as he entered into a certain village ten leprous men met him, who stood afar off.

¹³ And they lifted up [their] voice saying, Jesus, Master, have compassion on us.

¹⁴ And seeing [them] he said to them, Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass as they were going they were cleansed.

¹⁵ And one of them, seeing that he was cured, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice,

¹⁶ and fell on [his] face at his feet giving him thanks: and *he* was a Samaritan.

¹⁷ And Jesus answering said, Were not the ten cleansed? but the nine, where [are they]?

¹⁸ There have not been found to return and give glory to God save this stranger.

¹⁹ And he said to him, Rise up and go thy way: thy faith has made thee well.

²⁰ And having been asked by the Pharisees, When is the kingdom of God coming? he answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

²¹ nor shall they say, Lo here, or, Lo there; for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.

²² And he said to the disciples, Days are coming, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and shall not see [it].

²³ And they will say to you, Lo here, or Lo there; go not, nor follow [them].

²⁴ For as the lightning shines which lightens from [one end] under heaven to [the other end] under heaven, thus shall the Son of man be in his day.

²⁵ But first he must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation.

²⁶ And as it took place in the days of Noe, thus also shall it be in the days of the Son of man:

²⁷ they ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed all [of them];

²⁸ and in like manner as took place in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

²⁹ but on the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from heaven, and destroyed all [of them]:

³⁰ after this [manner] shall it be in the day that the Son of man is revealed.

³¹ In that day, he who shall be on the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not go down to take it away; and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

³² Remember the wife of Lot.

³³ Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose it shall preserve it.

³⁴ I say to you, In that night there shall be two [men] upon one bed; one shall be seized and the other shall be let go.

³⁵ Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be seized and the other shall be let go.

³⁶ [Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be seized and the other let go.]

³⁷ And answering they say to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body [is], there the eagles will be gathered together.

18 And he spoke also a parable to them to the purport that they should always pray and not faint,

² saying, There was a judge in a city, not fearing God and not respecting man:

³ and there was a widow in that city, and she came to him, saying, Avenge me of mine adverse party.

⁴ And he would not for a time; but afterwards he said within himself, If even I fear not God and respect not man,

⁵ at any rate because this widow annoys me I will avenge her, that she may not by perpetually coming completely harass me.

⁶ And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.

⁷ And shall not God at all avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night, and he bears long as to them?

⁸ I say unto you that he will avenge them speedily. But when the Son of man comes, shall he indeed find faith on the earth?

⁹ And he spoke also to some, who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and made nothing of all the rest [of men], this parable:

¹⁰ Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-gatherer.

¹¹ The Pharisee, standing, prayed thus to himself: God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax-gatherer.

¹² I fast twice in the week, I tithe everything I gain.

¹³ And the tax-gatherer, standing afar off, would not lift up even his eyes to heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, O God, have compassion on me, the sinner.

¹⁴ I say unto you, This [man] went down to his house justified rather than that [other]. For every one who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.
