Luke 17:5-10

Luke 17:5-10

[5] And  the apostles  said  unto the Lord,  Increase  faith.  [6] And  the Lord  said,  If  ye had  faith  as  a grain  of mustard seed,  ye might  sycamine  tree, Be thou plucked up by the root,  and  be thou planted  in  the sea;  and  it should  obey  [7] But  which  of  having  a servant  plowing  or  feeding cattle,  will say  unto him  by and by,  when he is come  from  the field,  Go  and sit down to meat?  [8] And  will not  rather say  unto him,  Make ready  wherewith  I may sup,  and  gird thyself,  and serve  till  I have eaten  and  drunken;  and  afterward  thou  shalt eat  and  drink?  [9] Doth he  thank  servant  because  he did  the things that were commanded  [10] So  likewise  when  ye shall have done  all  those things which are commanded  say,  unprofitable  servants:  we have done  that which  was our duty  to do.
