← Luke 17:5	Luke 17:6 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Luke 17:7 [words of Jesus] →
And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.	And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.	But which of you, 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?
