"And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, 
Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?  He said unto him, 
What is written in the law?  how readest thou?  And he answering 
said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with 
all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and 
thy neighbour as thyself.  And he said unto him, Thou hast answered 
right: this do, and thou shalt live.  But he, willing to justify 
himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?  And Jesus 
answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, 
and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and 
wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.  And by chance 
there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he 
passed by on the other side.  And likewise a Levite, when he was at 
the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other 
side.  But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: 
and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,  And went to him, and 
bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own 
beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.  And on the 
morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the 
host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou 
spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.  Which now of 
these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among 
the thieves?  And he said, He that shewed mercy on him.  Then said 
Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise."  (New Testament | Luke 10:25 - 37)
