30 "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he fell among bandits who both stripped him and beat him, and went off leaving him half dead.
31 "Now a certain priest chanced to be going down that way, but on seeing him he passed on the other side.
32 "In like manner also a Levite who came to the spot, came and looked at him, and passed on the other side.
33 "But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was, and when he saw him was moved with compassion.
34 "He went to him bound up his wounds, pouring on them oil and wine. He set him on his own beast, and took him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 "The next day he took two silver pieces and gave them to the landlord and said, "Take care of him, and whatever more you spend I will repay it to you on my way back.
36 "Which then of these three seems to you to have behaved like a neighbor to the man who fell among bandits?"
37 He replied, "The one who showed mercy on him." "Go, then," said Jesus, "and do likewise."
