Luke 10 [27.] He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind;[c] and your neighbor as yourself.”[d]
Luke 10 [28.] He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
Luke 10 [29.] But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”
Luke 10 [30.] Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead. By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side. In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion, came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
Luke 10 [37.] He said, “He who showed mercy on him.”
Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
Luke 10 [38.] As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word. But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me.”
Luke 10 [41.] Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
