The Parable of The
Good Samaritan
(Luke
10:30-36) In reply Jesus said: "A man was going down from Jerusalem
to Jericho,
when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat
him and went away, leaving him half dead. {31} A
priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he
passed by on the other side. {32} So too, a Levite, when
he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. {33} But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and
when he saw him, he took pity on him. {34} He
went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the
man on his own donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him. {35} The
next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look
after him,' he said, 'and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra
expense you may have.' {36} "Which of these
three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of
robbers?"
