Luke 10:33-42 ▼

33 but a certain Samaritan being on the road, came where he was, and when he saw him, he took compassion on him,

34 went up to him, dress'd his wounds by applying oil and wine, then set him upon his own mule, and brought him to an inn, where he took care of him.

35 upon his departure the next day, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the master of the house, take care of him, said he, and I will repay you all the charges you are at, upon my return.

36 which now of the three do you think was neighbour to the man that was robb'd.

37 he, reply'd the doctor, who took pity on him, then said Jesus to him, go then, and imitate his example.

38 Another time, as they were on a journey, Jesus enter'd into a village, where a woman, named Martha, entertain'd him at her house.

39 now she had a sister, named Mary, who placed herself at the feet of Jesus, to attend to his discourse.

40 but Martha perplex'd with the hurry of her affairs, came to him, and said, Lord, don't you observe my sister has left me to serve all alone: direct her therefore to give me some assistance.

41 but Jesus replied to her, Martha, Martha, you trouble yourself about a world of cares:

42 but the best and the most necessary concern is, what Mary has pitch'd upon, of which she shall never be deprived.
