But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “A man fell victim to robbers as he went down from Jerusalem to Jericho. They stripped and beat him and went off leaving him half-dead. A priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. Likewise a Levite came to the place, and when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sight. He approached the victim, poured oil and wine over his wounds and bandaged them. Then he lifted him up on his own animal, took him to an inn, and cared for him. The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper with the instruction, ‘Take care of him. If you spend more than what I have given you, I shall repay you on my way back.’ Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the robbers’ victim?” He answered, “The one who treated him with mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

Andam ba kita
magmahal sa ato isigkatawo?
An
paghigugma sa isigkatawo amo’y pinaka-importante na parte nan ato pagpadayag
nan ato paghigugma ‘sab kan God.
Nahibayo
na si God na mahal nato Sija, sa tanan nato kasing-kasing, sa tanan nato
pagtawo, sa tanan kusog nato, sa tanan nato na paghuna-huna.
Pero sa
ato tubag kan God na mahalon nato an ato isigkatawo sama sa ato pagmahal sa ato
kaugalingon, dili seguro kon hingpit an ato tubag dinhi Dija kay jaon man gaju’y
mga tawo na may kaligutgot kita.
Seguro,
paningkamutan rakan nato na mahipadayag nato an ato pagmahal abir kon sin’o na
tawo, ma amigo man o ma kontra man nato, kay amo ma’y sugo dato ini ni God.
Ipangaliya
nato kan God, pinaagi kan Jesus Christ na mahutok an ato mga kasing-kasing para
may luna an berud nan pagmahal sa ato pagkatawo.
