One day, a man was travelling to another city. Some robbers surrounded him, tore off his clothes and beat him. Then they left him lying on the ground almost dead.
It happened that a priest was walking along that road. When he saw the man, he did not stop to help him but walked away. Next, a religious person came near him. When he saw the man who was hurt, he avoided him and would not help him.
Then, a stranger from another country travelled down that road. He came to the hurt man. He saw the man and felt very sorry for him. The stranger went to him, cleaned and dressed his wounds. The stranger had an animal so he carried the man in his animal and took him to a small inn. At the inn, the stranger continued to take care of him.
The next day, the stranger took out some money and gave them to the man who worked at the inn. He said, ”Take care of this hurt man. If you spend more money on him, I will pay it back to you when I come again.”
