Luke 10:25-37 NIV
25 On one occasion an
expert in the law stood up
to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he
asked, “what must I do to
inherit eternal life?”
26 “What is written in the
Law?” he replied. “How do
you read it?”
27 He answered: “ ‘Love
the Lord your God with all
your heart and with all your
soul and with all your
strength and with all your
mind’; and, ‘Love your
neighbor as yourself.’’”
28 “You have answered
correctly,” Jesus replied.
“Do this and you will live.”
29 But he wanted to
justify himself, so he asked
Jesus, “And who is my
neighbor?”
30 In reply Jesus said:
“A man was going down
from Jerusalem to Jericho,
when he fell into the hands
of robbers. They stripped
him of his clothes, beat him
and went away, leaving him
half dead. 31 A priest
happened to be going
down the same road, and
when he saw the man, he
passed by on the other
side. 32 So too, a Levite,
when he came to the place
and saw him, passed by on
the other side. 33 But a
Samaritan, as he traveled,
came where the man was;
and when he saw him, he
took pity on him. 34 He
went to him and bandaged
his wounds, pouring on oil
and wine. Then he put the
man on his own donkey,
took him to an inn and took
care of him. 35 The next
day he took out two silver
coins and gave them to the
innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’
he said, ‘and when I return,
I will reimburse you for any
extra expense you may
have.’
36 “Which of these three
do you think was a
neighbor to the man who
fell into the hands of
robbers?”
37 The expert in the law
replied, “The one who had
mercy on him.”
Jesus told him, “Go and
do likewise.”
