| 9:52 | And he sent messengers before his face. And going on, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him. |
| 9:53 | And they would not receive him, because his face was going toward Jerusalem. |

| 9:55 | And turning, he rebuked them, saying: “Do you not know of whose spirit you are? |
| 9:56 | The Son of man came, not to destroy lives, but to save them.” And they went into another town. |
