Section 30:35-39 (corresponding to Luke 17:15-19)
The ten men, as one, obeyed this command--
They tuned and went back; they hurried; they ran;
Then as they hastened, the miracle came,
And no sign of leprosy on them remained.
And then amid all their joy, one man paused,
Turned back again, shouting glory to God;
He ran back to Jesus, fell on his face,
Filling the air with thanksgiving and praise.
This man, a Samaritan, lay there alone,
Prostrate in wonder on the pilgrimage road.
Jesus received the man's thanks and his praise,
But there remained more for the Savior to say:
"How many were healed--wasn't it ten?
And where are the other nine lepers, then?
They've kept my command, but this shows their thoughts
Are all for themselves, not the glory of God.
For none of the nine came back to give praise,
Nor to turn their hearts to gratitude's ways,
But only this one, a stranger to us,
Whose faith has rendered to God all his trust."
And Jesus said to the Samaritan man,
"Arise, my friend, give thanks once again,
For your faith has made you well; go your way."
And the man went off, still shouting his praise.
