إنجيل القدّيس يوحنّا 16-11:10
أَنَا هُوَ الرَّاعِي الصَّالِح. والرَّاعِي الصَّالِحُ يَبْذُلُ نَفْسَهُ عَنِ الخِرَاف.
أَمَّا الأَجِير، وهُوَ لَيْسَ بِرَاعٍ، ولَيْسَتِ الخِرَافُ لَهُ، فَيَرَى الذِّئْبَ مُقْبِلاً، ويَتْرُكُ الخِرَافَ ويَهْرُب، فيَخْطَفُهَا الذِّئْبُ ويُبَدِّدُهَا؛
لأَنَّ الأَجِيرَ أَجِير، ولا يُبَالِي بِٱلخِرَاف.
أَنَا هُوَ الرَّاعِي الصَّالِح. أَعْرِفُ خِرَافِي وخَرِافِي تَعْرِفُنِي،
كَمَا أَنَّ الآبَ يَعْرِفُنِي وأَنَا أَعْرِفُ الآب، وأَبْذُلُ نَفْسِي عَنِ الخِرَاف.
ولِي خِرَافٌ أُخْرَى لَيْسَتْ مِنْ هذِهِ الحَظِيرَة، عَلَيَّ أَنْ آتِيَ بِهَا هِيَ أَيْضًا. وَسَتَسْمَعُ صَوتِي، فَتَكُونُ رَعِيَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ ورَاعٍ وَاحِد
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 17:11-19.
As he continued his journey to Jerusalem, he traveled through Samaria and Galilee.
As he was entering a village, ten lepers met (him). They stood at a distance from him
and raised their voice, saying, “Jesus, Master! Have pity on us!”
And when he saw them, he said, “Go show yourselves to the priests.” As they were going they were cleansed.
And one of them, realizing he had been healed, returned, glorifying God in a loud voice;
and he fell at the feet of Jesus and thanked him. He was a Samaritan.
Jesus said in reply, “Ten were cleansed, were they not? Where are the other nine?
Has none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?”
Then he said to him, “Stand up and go; your faith has saved you.”
