1 He also said [Jesus] to the disciples: it is impossible not to come to temptations, but woe to him through whom they come;
2 It would have been better for him if the millstone had been hanged by his neck and thrown him into the sea, rather than that he seduced one of these little ones.
3 Watch yourself. If thy brother shall sin against thee, speak unto him; And if he repents, forgive him;
4 And if seven times a day he sins against you and turns around seven times a day, and says: I repent, - forgive him.
5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase faith in us.
6th The Lord said: If you had faith with a grain of mustard seed and told this fig tree: Throw yourself out and change into the sea, then she would obey you.
7th Who among you, having a slave plowing or grazing, after his return from the field, will say to him: go quickly, sit down at the table?
8 On the contrary, will he not tell him: prepare me to have supper and, girding, serve me while I eat and drink, and then eat and drink it yourself?
9 Will he thank this servant for having fulfilled his command? I do not think so.
10 So you, when you have fulfilled all that was commanded you, say: we are slaves worthless, because we did what we had to do.

eleven Going to Jerusalem, He passed between Samaria and Galilee.
12 And when he entered into one village, ten leprosy men met him, who stopped in the distance
13 And with a loud voice they said: Jesus the Master! Have mercy on us.
14 When he saw them, he said to them, "Go, show yourself to the priests." And when they went, they were cleansed.
15 One of them, seeing that he was healed, returned, glorifying God with a loud voice,
16 And fell down at his feet at his feet, thanks to him; And it was a Samaritan.
17th Then Jesus said: Have not ten cleansed? Where are the nine?
18 How did they not return to give glory to God, except this stranger?
19 And he said to him: Arise, go; Your faith has saved you.

20 Once asked the Pharisees, when the Kingdom of God will come, answered them: the Kingdom of God will not come in an observable way,
21 And they will not say: behold, it is here, or: lo, there. For, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
22 He also told the disciples: the days will come when you want to see though one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see;
23 And they will say to you, Behold, here, or, lo, there, do not go and do not chase,
24 For, like lightning flashing from one side of the sky, shining to the other end of the sky, so will the Son of Man in His day.
25 But first He must suffer much and be rejected by this generation.
26th And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man:
27th They ate, drank, married, got married, until the day Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed all.
28 Just as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, drank, bought, sold, planted, built;
29 But on the day in which Lot left Sodom, a rain of fire and sulfur sprang from the sky and destroyed all;
thirty So it will be on the day when the Son of Man appears.
31 On that day, whoever will be on the roof, but his things in the house, do not go to take them; And whoever is on the field, also do not go back.
32 Remember Lot's wife.
33 He who will save his soul will destroy it; But whosoever shall destroy her, he shall quicken it.
34 I tell you: that night there will be two in one bed: one will take, and the other will be left;
35 Two will grind together: one will be taken and the other left;
36 Two will be on the field: one will take, and the other will remain.
37 And they said unto him, Where, Lord? He told them: where the corpse, there will be gathered and eagles.
