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