19th Sunday after Pentecost - Proper 23

Luke 17:11-19

On the way to Jerusalem Jesus was going through the region between Samaria
and Galilee.  As he entered a village, ten lepers approached him.  Keeping
their distance, they called out, saying, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on
us!"  When he saw them, he said to them, "Go and show yourselves to the
priests."  And as they went, they were made clean.  Then one of them, when
he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice.
He prostrated himself at Jesus' feet and thanked him.  And he was a
Samaritan.  Then Jesus asked, "Were not ten made clean?  But the other
nine, where are they?  Was none of them found to return and give praise to
God except this foreigner?"  Then he said to him, "Get up and go on your
way; your faith has made you well."
