New Testament

Luke 17:14-25 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

14. And when he saw them, he said, "Go, show yourselves to the priests." And it happened that, as they were going, they were cleansed.

15. And one of them, when he saw that he was cleansed, returned, magnifying God with a loud voice.

16. And he fell face down before his feet, giving thanks. And this one was a Samaritan.

17. And in response, Jesus said: "Were not ten made clean? And so where are the nine?

18. Was no one found who would return and give glory to God, except this foreigner?"

19. And he said to him: "Rise up, go forth. For your faith has saved you."

20. Then he was questioned by the Pharisees: "When does the kingdom of God arrive?" And in response, he said to them: "The kingdom of God arrives unobserved.

21. And so, they will not say, 'Behold, it is here,' or 'Behold, it is there.' For behold, the kingdom of God is within you."

22. And he said to his disciples: "The time will come when you will desire to see one day of the Son of man, and you will not see it.

23. And they will say to you, 'Behold, he is here,' and 'Behold, he is there.' Do not choose to go out, and do not follow them.

24. For just as lightning flashes from under heaven and shines to whatever is under heaven, so also will the Son of man be in his day.

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