Parable of the Good Samaritan
25 And behold a certain lawyer stood up, tempting him and saying: Master, by doing of what thing shall I possess life everlasting?
26 But he said to him: In the law what is written? How readest thou?
27 He answering said: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind: and thy neighbour as thy self.
28 And he said to him: Thou hast answered right, this do and thou shalt live.
29 But he desirous to justify himself, said to JESUS: And who is my neighbour?
30 And JESUS taking it, said: A certain man went down from Jerusalem into Jericho, and fell among thieves, who also spoiled him, and giving him wounds went away leaving him half-dead.
31 And it chanced that a certain Priest went down the same way; and seeing him, passed by.
32 In like manner also a Levite, when he was near the place, and saw him, passed by.
33 But a certain Samaritane going his journey, came near him; and seeing him, was moved with mercy.
34 And going unto him, bound his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and setting him upon his own beast, brought him into an inn, and took care of him.
35 And the next day he took forth two pence, and gave to the host, and said: Have care of him; and whatsoever thou shalt supererogate, I at my return will repay thee.
36 Which of these three in thy opinion was neighbour to him that fell among thieves?
37 But he said: He that did mercy upon him. And JESUS said to him: Go, and do thou in like manner.
