giving thanks

"And it came to pass as He was going to Jerusalem, that He was passing between Samaria and Galilee. And as He was entering a certain village, there met Him ten lepers, who stood afar off and lifted up their voice, crying, Jesus, Master, have pity on us. And when He saw them He said, Go, show yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass as they were on their way, that they were made clean. But one of them, seeing that he was made clean, returned, with a loud voice glorifying God, and he fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks; and he was a Samaritan.

But Jesus answered and said, Were not the ten made clean? But where are the nine? Has no one been found to return and give glory to God except this foreigner? And He said to him, Arise, go thy way, for thy faith has saved thee."

Luke 17: 11-19
