The Healing Of The Ten Lepers
On their way to Jerusalem, Jesus and his disciples passed through
Samaria and Galilee. When he entered a certain village, he was met by
ten lepers, who cried to him from a distance, "Jesus, Master, have pity
on us." When Jesus saw them he said to them, "Go, and show yourselves to
the priests." And as they went, they were made clean.
One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a
loud voice praised God; and he fell down at the feet of Jesus with his
face to the ground and thanked him; and this man was a Samaritan. Jesus
said to him, "Were not ten made clean? Where are the other nine? Was
there no one who returned to give praise to God except this stranger?"
And Jesus said to him, "Arise, and go on your way, your faith has made
you well."
