Luke 17 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Luk 17:1And he said unto the disciples, 'It is impossible for the stumbling blocks not to come, but wo to him through whom they come;
Luk 17:2it 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.
Luk 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,
Luk 17:4and 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.'
Luk 17:5And the apostles said to the Lord, 'Add to us faith;'
Luk 17:6and 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.
Luk 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?
Luk 17:8but 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?
Luk 17:9Hath he favour to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.
Luk 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.'

Ten Lepers Cleansed

Luk 17:11And it came to pass, in his going on to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee,
Luk 17:12and he entering into a certain village, there met him ten leprous men, who stood afar off,
Luk 17:13and they lifted up the voice, saying, 'Jesus, master, deal kindly with us;'
Luk 17:14and 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,
Luk 17:15and one of them having seen that he was healed did turn back, with a loud voice glorifying God,
Luk 17:16and he fell upon his face at his feet, giving thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.
Luk 17:17And Jesus answering said, 'Were not the ten cleansed, and the nine -- where?
Luk 17:18There were not found who did turn back to give glory to God, except this alien;'
Luk 17:19and he said to him, 'Having risen, be going on, thy faith hath saved thee.'
Luk 17:20And 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;
Luk 17:21nor shall they say, Lo, here; or lo, there; for lo, the reign of God is within you.'

Second Coming Foretold

Luk 17:22And 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;
Luk 17:23and they shall say to you, Lo, here; or lo, there; ye may not go away, nor follow;
Luk 17:24for 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;
Luk 17:25and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.
Luk 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;
Luk 17:27they 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;
Luk 17:28in 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;
Luk 17:29and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed all.
Luk 17:30'According to these things it shall be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;
Luk 17:31in 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;
Luk 17:32remember the wife of Lot.
Luk 17:33Whoever may seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever may lose it, shall preserve it.
Luk 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;
Luk 17:35two women shall be grinding at the same place together, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;
Luk 17:36two men shall be in the field, the one shall be taken, and the other left.'
Luk 17:37And they answering say to him, 'Where, sir?' and he said to them, 'Where the body is, there will the eagles be gathered together.'
