New Living Translation

1Then He said to the disciples, “It is impossible that no offenses should come, but woe to him through whom they do come!

1One day Jesus said to his disciples, “There will always be temptations to sin, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!

2It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

2 It would be better to be thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around your neck than to cause one of these little ones to fall into sin.

3Take heed to yourselves. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

3 So watch yourselves! “If another believer sins, rebuke that person; then if there is repentance, forgive.

4And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”

4 Even if that person wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and asks forgiveness, you must forgive.”

5And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”

5The apostles said to the Lord, “Show us how to increase our faith.”

6So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.

6The Lord answered, “If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘May you be uprooted and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you!

7And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’?

7 “When a servant comes in from plowing or taking care of sheep, does his master say, ‘Come in and eat with me’?

8But will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink’?

8 No, he says, ‘Prepare my meal, put on your apron, and serve me while I eat. Then you can eat later.’

9Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not.

9 And does the master thank the servant for doing what he was told to do? Of course not.

10So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, ‘We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.’ ”

10 In the same way, when you obey me you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’” Ten Healed of Leprosy

11Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

11As Jesus continued on toward Jerusalem, he reached the border between Galilee and Samaria.

12Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off.

12As he entered a village there, ten men with leprosy stood at a distance,

13And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

13crying out, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed.

14He looked at them and said, “Go show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed of their leprosy.

15And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God,

15One of them, when he saw that he was healed, came back to Jesus, shouting, “Praise God!”

16and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.

16He fell to the ground at Jesus’ feet, thanking him for what he had done. This man was a Samaritan.

17So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine?

17Jesus asked, “Didn’t I heal ten men? Where are the other nine?

18Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?”

18 Has no one returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?”

19And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”

19And Jesus said to the man, “Stand up and go. Your faith has healed you. ” The Coming of the Kingdom

20Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

20One day the Pharisees asked Jesus, “When will the Kingdom of God come?” Jesus replied, “The Kingdom of God can’t be detected by visible signs.

21nor will they say, ‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.”

21 You won’t be able to say, ‘Here it is!’ or ‘It’s over there!’ For the Kingdom of God is already among you. ”

22Then He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

22Then he said to his disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see the day when the Son of Man returns, but you won’t see it.

23And they will say to you, ‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them.

23 People will tell you, ‘Look, there is the Son of Man,’ or ‘Here he is,’ but don’t go out and follow them.

24For as the lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven shines to the other part under heaven, so also the Son of Man will be in His day.

24 For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other, so it will be on the day when the Son of Man comes.

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

25 But first the Son of Man must suffer terribly and be rejected by this generation.

26And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:

26 “When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day.

27They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

27 In those days, the people enjoyed banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat and the flood came and destroyed them all.

28Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

28 “And the world will be as it was in the days of Lot. People went about their daily business—eating and drinking, buying and selling, farming and building—

29but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.

29 until the morning Lot left Sodom. Then fire and burning sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

30 Yes, it will be ‘business as usual’ right up to the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

31“In that day, he who is on the housetop, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not turn back.

31 On that day a person out on the deck of a roof must not go down into the house to pack. A person out in the field must not return home.

32Remember Lot’s wife.

32 Remember what happened to Lot’s wife!

33Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it.

33 If you cling to your life, you will lose it, and if you let your life go, you will save it.

34I tell you, in that night there will be two men in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left.

34 That night two people will be asleep in one bed; one will be taken, the other left.

35Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left.

35 Two women will be grinding flour together at the mill; one will be taken, the other left. ”

36Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.”

37And they answered and said to Him, “Where, Lord?” So He said to them, “Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together.”

37“Where will this happen, Lord?” the disciples asked. Jesus replied, “Just as the gathering of vultures shows there is a carcass nearby, so these signs indicate that the end is near.”
