Luke 17:13

Jesus
PrayerMercy and compassion

11 While Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12 As He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance

and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14 When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

15 When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.
