1HE said to his disciples, “There are bound to be causes of stumbling; but woe betide the person through whom they come.
2It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone round his neck than to cause the downfall of one of these little ones.
3So be on your guard. “If your brother does wrong, reprove him; and if he repents, forgive him.
4Even if he wrongs you seven times in a day and comes back to you seven times saying, ‘I am sorry,’ you are to forgive him.”
5The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith”;
6and the Lord replied, “If you had faith no bigger than a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be rooted up and planted in the sea’; and it would obey you.
7“Suppose one of you has a servant ploughing or minding sheep. When he comes in from the fields, will the master say, ‘Come and sit down straight away’?
8Will he not rather say, ‘Prepare my supper; hitch up your robe, and wait on me while I have my meal. You can have yours afterwards’?
9Is he grateful to the servant for carrying out his orders?
10So with you: when you have carried out all you have been ordered to do, you should say, ‘We are servants and deserve no credit; we have only done our duty.’”
11In the course of his journey to Jerusalem he was travelling through the borderlands of Samaria and Galilee.
12As he was entering a village he was met by ten men with leprosy. They stood some way off
13and called out to him, “Jesus, Master, take pity on us.”
14When he saw them he said, “Go and show yourselves to the priests”; and while they were on their way, they were made clean.
15One of them, finding himself cured, turned back with shouts of praise to God.
16He threw himself down at Jesus's feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan.
17At this Jesus said: “Were not all ten made clean? The other nine, where are they?
18Was no one found returning to give praise to God except this foreigner?”
19And he said to the man, “Stand up and go on your way; your faith has cured you.”
20THE Pharisees asked him, “When will the kingdom of God come?” He answered, “You cannot tell by observation when the kingdom of God comes.
21You cannot say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is!’ For the kingdom of God is among you!”
22He said to the disciples, “The time will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man and will not see it.
23They will say to you, ‘Look! There!’ and ‘Look! Here!’ Do not go running off in pursuit.
24For like a lightning-flash, that lights up the earth from end to end, will the Son of Man be in his day.
25But first he must endure much suffering and be rejected by this generation.
26“As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man.
27They ate and drank and married, until the day that Noah went into the ark and the flood came and made an end of them all.
28So too in the days of Lot, they ate and drank, they bought and sold, they planted and built;
29but on the day that Lot left Sodom, fire and sulphur rained from the sky and made an end of them all.
30It will be like that on the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
31“On that day if anyone is on the roof while his belongings are in the house, he must not go down to fetch them; and if anyone is in the field, he must not turn back.
32Remember Lot's wife.
33Whoever seeks to preserve his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life will gain it.
34“I tell you, on that night there will be two people in one bed: one will be taken, the other left.
35There will be two women together grinding corn: one will be taken, the other left.”

37When they heard this they asked, “Where, Lord?” He said, “Where the carcass is, there will the vultures gather.”
