Jesus responding said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and fell among thieves, who indeed having stripped him of his raiment, administered blows, went away, leaving him half dead. And by chance a certain priest came down that way: and seeing him, passed by on the other side. And likewise also a Levite, being at the place, coming and seeing, passed by on the other side. And a certain Samaritan, on a journey, came near him: and seeing, had compassion on him, and having come to him, he bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and having mounted him on his own beast, carried him to a tavern, and cared for him. And on the morrow, taking out two denaria, gave them to the host, and said, Care for him; and whatsoever you expend in addition, on my return, I will pay you.
