Absolution as gift of God
11 On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance 13 and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Teacher, have mercy on us.” 14 When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. 15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; 16 and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. 17 Then Jesus answered, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? 18 Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” 19 And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well.”
11 Y aconteció que yendo Él a Jerusalén, pasó por medio de Samaria y de Galilea. 12 Y entrando en una aldea, le vinieron al encuentro diez hombres leprosos, que se pararon a lo lejos, 13 y alzaron la voz, diciendo: Jesús, Maestro, ten misericordia de nosotros. 14 Y cuando Él los vio, les dijo: “Id, mostraos a los sacerdotes.” Y aconteció que yendo ellos, fueron limpiados. 15 Entonces uno de ellos, viendo que había sido sanado, volvió, glorificando a Dios a gran voz; 16 y se postró sobre su rostro a sus pies, dándole gracias; y éste era samaritano. 17 Y respondiendo Jesús, dijo: “¿No son diez los que fueron limpiados? ¿Y los nueve dónde están?” 18 “¿No hubo quien volviese y diese gloria a Dios sino este extranjero?” 19 Y le dijo: “Levántate, vete; tu fe te ha salvado.”
