what's wrong with this picture?

My wife was miffed at what she heard read in the Gospel on Thanksgiving Day (Luke 17, 11-19); to wit,

As he was entering a village, ten persons with leprosy met him. (US Lectionary for Mass)

As he was entering a village, ten lepers met him. (RNAB)

As he entered one of the villages, ten men suffering from a virulent skin disease came to meet him. (NJB)

And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers. (RSV)

Surely, the RSV is best here. And, as much as I hate to admit it, the NJB screwed this one up big time, while even the RNAB got it right!

But the "scholars" who edited the US Lectionary took the RNAB rendering and made it "politically-correct".
