1898 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Luke 17

1 Christ teacheth to avoid occasions of offence. 3 One to forgive another. 6 The power of faith. 7 How we are bound to God, and not he to us. 11 He healeth ten lepers. 22 Of the Kingdom of God, and the coming of the Son of man.

 17:1 ¶ And he said unto the disciples, 'It is impossible for the stumbling blocks not to come, but woe [to him] through whom they come;

 17:2 it is more profitable to him if a weighty millstone is put round about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to stumble.

 17:3 ¶ 'Take heed to yourselves, and, if thy brother may sin in regard to thee, rebuke him, and if he may reform, forgive him,

 17:4 and if seven times in the day he may sin against thee, and seven times in the day may turn back to thee, saying, I reform; thou shalt forgive him.'

 17:5 And the apostles said to the Lord, 'Add to us faith;'

 17:6 and the Lord said, 'If ye had faith as a grain of mustard, ye would have said to this sycamine, Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.

 17:7 'But, who is he of you—having a servant ploughing or feeding—who, to him having come in out of the field, will say, Having come near, recline at meat?

 17:8 but will not [rather] say to him, Prepare what I may sup, and having girded thyself about, minister to me, till I eat and drink, and after these things thou shalt eat and drink?

 17:9 Hath he favour to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.

 17:10 'So also ye, when ye may have done all the things directed you, say—We are unprofitable servants, because that which we owed to do—we have done.'

 17:11 ¶ And it came to pass, in his going on to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee,

 17:12 and he entering into a certain village, there met him ten leprous men, who stood afar off,

 17:13 and they lifted up the voice, saying, 'Jesus, master, deal kindly with us;'

 17:14 and having seen [them], he said to them, 'Having gone on, shew yourselves to the priests;' and it came to pass, in their going, they were cleansed,

 17:15 and one of them having seen that he was healed did turn back, with a loud voice glorifying God,

 17:16 and he fell upon [his] face at his feet, giving thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.

 17:17 And Jesus answering said, 'Were not the ten cleansed, and the nine—where?

 17:18 There were not found who did turn back to give glory to God, except this alien;'

 17:19 and he said to him, 'Having risen, be going on, thy faith hath saved thee.'

 17:20 ¶ And having been questioned by the Pharisees, when the reign of God doth come, he answered them, and said, 'The reign of God doth not come with observation;

 17:21 nor shall they say, Lo, here; or lo, there; for lo, the reign of God is within you.'

 17:22 And he said unto his disciples, 'Days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and ye shall not behold [it];

 17:23 and they shall say to you, Lo, here; or lo, there; ye may not go away, nor follow;

 17:24 for as the lightning that is lightening out of the one [part] under heaven, to the other part under heaven doth shine, so shall be also the Son of Man in his day;

 17:25 and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.

 17:26 'And, as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man;

 17:27 they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were given in marriage, till the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the deluge came, and destroyed all;

 17:28 in like manner also, as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;

 17:29 and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed all.

 17:30 'According to these things it shall be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;

 17:31 in that day, he who shall be on the house top, and his vessels in the house, let him not come down to take them away; and he in the field, in like manner, let him not turn backward;

 17:32 remember the wife of Lot.

 17:33 Whoever may seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever may lose it, shall preserve it.

 17:34 'I say to you, In that night, there shall be two men on one couch, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;

 17:35 two women shall be grinding at the same place together, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;

 17:36 two men shall be in the field, the one shall be taken, and the other left.'

 17:37 And they answering say to him, 'Where, sir?' and he said to them, 'Where the body [is], there will the eagles be gathered together.'
