差派七十人
10 這些事以後，主另外指定了七十[a]個人，差派他們兩個兩個地在他前頭，到他要去的各城各地去。 2 耶穌對他們說：「收割的工作[b]多，而工人少。所以你們要祈求收割[c]的主催促工人參與他的收割工作[d]。 3 你們去吧！看哪，我差派你們出去，就像把羊羔送進狼群中。 4 你們不要帶錢包，不要帶行囊，不要帶鞋子，在路上也不要問候任何人。 5 你們無論進哪一家，首先要說『願這一家平安。』 6 如果那裡有平安之子，你們的平安就會臨到他；否則，那平安就歸回你們。 7 你們當住在那一家，吃喝他們所供給的，因為工人配得自己的酬報。不要從這家搬到那家。 8 無論進哪一個城，如果人們接受你們，給你們擺上什麼，你們就吃什麼。 9 你們要使那城裡的病人痊癒，並且要對他們說『神的國臨近你們了。』 10 無論進哪一個城，如果人們不接受你們，你們就到大街[e]上去，說 11 『連那沾在我們腳上[f]的你們城裡的塵土，我們也要當著你們擦掉，不過你們應當知道：神的國近了[g]。』 12 我告訴你們：在那日，所多瑪所受的，將要比那城還容易受呢！
不悔改的城
13 「哥拉汛哪，你有禍了！伯賽達呀，你有禍了！因為在你們當中行過的神蹟，如果行在提爾和西頓，那裡的人早就會披麻蒙灰，坐在地上悔改了。 14 不過在審判的時候，提爾和西頓所受的，將要比你們還容易受呢！ 15 而你——迦百農啊，你將被高舉到天上嗎？不，你將下到陰間。
16 「聽從你們的，就是聽從我；拒絕你們的，就是拒絕我；拒絕我的，就是拒絕差派我來的那一位。」
七十人歸來
17 那七十[h]個人懷著喜樂的心回來，說：「主啊，奉你的名，連鬼魔也服從了我們。」
18 耶穌對他們說：「我看見撒旦像閃電一樣從天上墜落。 19 看，我已經給了你們權柄去踐踏蛇和蠍子，又勝過仇敵一切的勢力，絕不會有什麼能傷害你們了。 20 但不要因為邪靈服從了你們就歡喜，要因為你們的名字已經被記錄在天上而歡喜。」
父的美意
21 那時候，耶穌[i]受了聖靈的感動就快樂，說：「父啊，天地的主，我讚美[j]你，因為你把這些事向有智慧的和有學問的人隱藏起來，而向小孩子們顯明出來。是的，父啊！因為這正是你的美意。」 22 「我父把一切都交給了我。除了父，沒有人知道子是誰；除了子和子所願意啟示的人，也沒有人知道父是誰。」
23 耶穌轉過身來，悄悄地對門徒們說：「看見你們所看見的，那眼睛是蒙福的！ 24 我告訴你們：曾經有許多先知和君王想要看你們所看見的，卻沒有看到；想要聽你們所聽見的，卻沒有聽到。」
好撒馬利亞人
25 這時候，忽然有一個律法師站起來試探耶穌，說：「老師，我該做什麼才會繼承永恆的生命呢？」
26 耶穌對他說：「律法上是怎麼寫的？你是怎麼讀的呢？」
27 他回答說：
「你要以全心、全靈、全力、全意愛主——你的神，並且要愛鄰如己。」[k]
28 耶穌說：「你回答得對。你這樣去做，就將活著。」
29 那個人卻要顯示自己為義，就對耶穌說：「那麼，誰是我的鄰人呢？」
30 耶穌回答說：「有一個人從耶路撒冷下到耶利哥去，途中[l]遇到強盜。他們剝去他的衣服，把他打得半死，丟下他走了。 31 恰好有一個祭司從那條路下來，看見他，就從另一邊走了過去。 32 有一個利未人也正好來到那地方，看見他，也同樣地從另一邊走了過去。 33 可是，有一個撒馬利亞人行路來到他那裡，看見他，就動了憐憫之心， 34 上前來，在他的傷處倒上油和酒，包紮好，然後把他扶上自己的牲口，帶到旅店裡照顧他。 35 第二天[m]，他拿出兩個銀幣[n]交給店家，說『請你照顧他，一切額外的費用，我回來的時候將還給你。』
36 「你認為，這三個人中，哪一個是落在強盜手中那人的鄰人呢？」
37 律法師說：「是那個憐憫他的人。」
耶穌對他說：「你去如此做吧。」
瑪妲與瑪麗亞
38 他們繼續前行，耶穌進了一個村子，有一個名叫瑪妲的女人接待他[o]。 39 瑪妲有個妹妹[p]，稱為瑪麗亞，坐在主[q]的腳前聽他的話語。 40 瑪妲為了很多伺候的事就心裡煩亂，上前來說：「主啊，我妹妹丟下我一個人伺候，你不管嗎？請叫她來幫我的忙吧。」
41 主[r]回答她，說：「瑪妲，瑪妲，你為很多事憂慮、煩惱， 42 但是有一件事是需要的，而瑪麗亞選擇了那美好的一份，是不能從她那裡被拿去的。」

差遣門徒
10 事後，主揀選了七十個門徒[a]，差遣他們兩個兩個地出去，先到祂將要去的城鎮村莊， 2 並對他們說：「要收割的莊稼很多，工人卻很少，因此你們要祈求莊稼的主人派更多的工人去收割祂的莊稼。
3 「你們去吧！我差你們出去，就像把羊羔送入狼群。 4 錢袋、背包和鞋都不要帶，在路上也不要與人寒暄。 5 無論到哪一戶人家，要先說，『願祝福臨到這家！』 6 如果那裡有配得祝福的人，祝福自然會臨到那人，否則祝福仍歸給你們。 7 不要搬來搬去，要固定住在一家，接受那家的款待，因為工人理應得到工錢。
8 「你們無論到哪一個城鎮，如果人們接待你們，就吃他們擺上的飲食。 9 要醫治那城裡的病人，告訴他們，『上帝的國臨近你們了。』 10 但如果哪一個城鎮的人不歡迎你們，你們就到街上宣告， 11 『就連你們城裡的塵土粘在我們腳上，我們都要跺掉，但是要知道，上帝的國臨近了。』 12 我告訴你們，在審判之日，那城所受的刑罰將比所多瑪所受的還重！
13 「哥拉汛啊，你大禍臨頭了！伯賽大啊，你大禍臨頭了！我在你們當中所行的神蹟，如果行在泰爾和西頓，那裡的人早就身披麻衣，頭蒙灰塵，坐在地上悔改了。 14 在審判之日，你們將比泰爾和西頓受更重的刑罰！
15 「迦百農啊，你將被提升到天上嗎？不！你將被打落到陰間。」
16 耶穌繼續對門徒說：「誰聽從你們，就是聽從我；誰拒絕你們，就是拒絕我；拒絕我的，就是拒絕差我來的那位。」
17 七十個門徒興高采烈地回來說：「主啊，我們奉你的名行事，甚至降服了鬼魔。」
18 耶穌回答說：「我看見撒旦像閃電一樣從天上墜下。 19 我已經給你們權柄，使你們能踐踏蛇和蠍子，勝過仇敵的權勢，沒有什麼能傷害你們。 20 然而，不要為了邪靈向你們降服而高興，要因你們的名字記錄在天上而高興。」
21 就在這時候，耶穌受聖靈感動，充滿喜樂地說：「父啊，天地的主，我頌讚你！因為你把這些事向聰明、有學問的人隱藏起來，卻啟示給像孩童一般的人。父啊！是的，這正是你的美意。 22 我父將一切交給了我。除了父，沒有人認識子；除了子和受子啟示的人，沒有人認識父。」
23 隨後，耶穌轉身悄悄地對門徒說：「誰看到你們今日所看到的，誰就有福了。 24 我告訴你們，以前有許多先知和君王渴望看見你們所看見的，聽見你們所聽見的，卻未能如願。」
好撒瑪利亞人的比喻
25 有一次，一名律法教師站起來試探耶穌，說：「老師，我應該怎樣做才能得永生呢？」
26 耶穌反問他：「律法怎麼說？你怎麼理解？」
27 律法教師答道：「『你要全心、全情、全力、全意愛主——你的上帝』，又要『愛鄰如己』。」 28 耶穌說：「你答得對，照著去做就有永生了。」
29 律法教師想證明自己有理，就問：「那麼，誰是我的鄰居呢？」
30 耶穌回答說：「有個人從耶路撒冷去耶利哥，途中被劫。強盜剝了他的衣服，把他打個半死，丟在那裡，然後揚長而去。
31 「剛好有位祭司經過，看見那人躺在地上，連忙從旁邊繞過，繼續趕路。 32 又有個利未人經過，也跟先前那個祭司一樣從旁邊繞過去了。
33 「後來，有位撒瑪利亞人[b]經過，看見這個人，就動了慈心， 34 連忙上前用油和酒替他敷傷口，包紮妥當，然後把他扶上自己騎的牲口，帶到附近的客店照料。 35 次日還交給店主兩個銀幣，說，『請替我好好照顧這個人。如果錢不夠的話，等我回來再補給你。』 36 那麼，你認為這三個人中誰是被劫者的鄰居呢？」
37 律法教師說：「是那個同情他的人。」
耶穌說：「你去照樣做吧。」
上好的福分
38 耶穌和門徒去耶路撒冷的途中路過一個村莊，遇到一位名叫瑪大的女子接待他們到家裡作客。 39 瑪大的妹妹瑪麗亞坐在耶穌腳前聽道， 40 瑪大為了招待客人忙亂不已，於是上前對耶穌說：
「主啊，我妹妹讓我一個人伺候大家，你都不管嗎？請你叫她來幫幫我吧。」
41 耶穌對她說：「瑪大，瑪大，你為太多事情憂慮煩惱。 42 其實最要緊的事只有一件，瑪麗亞選擇了上好的，是奪不走的。」

Chapter 10
The Mission of the Seventy-two.[a] 1 After this the Lord appointed seventy[-two][b] others whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to every town and place he intended to visit.(A) 2 He said to them, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.(B) 3 Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves.(C) 4 [c]Carry no money bag,(D) no sack, no sandals;(E) and greet no one along the way. 5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this household.’[d] 6 If a peaceful person[e] lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. 7 Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to you, for the laborer deserves his payment. Do not move about from one house to another.(F) 8 Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what is set before you,(G) 9 cure the sick in it and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God is at hand for you.’(H) 10 Whatever town you enter and they do not receive you, go out into the streets and say,(I) 11 ‘The dust of your town that clings to our feet, even that we shake off against you.’ Yet know this: the kingdom of God is at hand.(J) 12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom on that day than for that town.(K)
Reproaches to Unrepentant Towns.[f] 13 (L)“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida!(M) For if the mighty deeds done in your midst had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you. 15 [g](N)And as for you, Capernaum, ‘Will you be exalted to heaven? You will go down to the netherworld.’ 16 Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me. And whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me.”(O)
Return of the Seventy-two. 17 The seventy[-two] returned rejoicing, and said, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us because of your name.” 18 Jesus said, “I have observed Satan fall like lightning[h] from the sky.(P) 19 Behold, I have given you the power ‘to tread upon serpents’ and scorpions and upon the full force of the enemy and nothing will harm you.(Q) 20 Nevertheless, do not rejoice because the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”(R)
Praise of the Father.(S) 21 At that very moment he rejoiced [in] the holy Spirit and said, “I give you praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike.[i] Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will.(T) 22 All things have been handed over to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.”(U)
The Privileges of Discipleship.(V) 23 Turning to the disciples in private he said, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. 24 For I say to you, many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it.”
The Greatest Commandment.(W) 25 [j]There was a scholar of the law[k] who stood up to test him and said, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(X) 26 Jesus said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?” 27 He said in reply, “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your being, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”(Y) 28 He replied to him, “You have answered correctly; do this and you will live.”(Z)
The Parable of the Good Samaritan. 29 But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 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. 31 [l]A priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. 32 Likewise a Levite came to the place, and when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. 33 But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sight. 34 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. 35 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.’ 36 Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the robbers’ victim?” 37 He answered, “The one who treated him with mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
Martha and Mary.[m] 38 (AA)As they continued their journey he entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him. 39 [n]She had a sister named Mary [who] sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak. 40 Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me.” 41 The Lord said to her in reply, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. 42 [o]There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her.”
Footnotes
- 10:1–12 Only the Gospel of Luke contains two episodes in which Jesus sends out his followers on a mission: the first (Lk 9:1–6) is based on the mission in Mk 6:6b–13 and recounts the sending out of the Twelve; here in Lk 10:1–12 a similar report based on Q becomes the sending out of seventy-two in this gospel. The episode continues the theme of Jesus preparing witnesses to himself and his ministry. These witnesses include not only the Twelve but also the seventy-two who may represent the Christian mission in Luke’s own day. Note that the instructions given to the Twelve and to the seventy-two are similar and that what is said to the seventy-two in Lk 10:4 is directed to the Twelve in Lk 22:35.
- 10:1 Seventy[-two]: important representatives of the Alexandrian and Caesarean text types read “seventy,” while other important Alexandrian texts and Western readings have “seventy-two.”
- 10:4 Carry no money bag…greet no one along the way: because of the urgency of the mission and the singlemindedness required of missionaries, attachment to material possessions should be avoided and even customary greetings should not distract from the fulfillment of the task.
- 10:5 First say, ‘Peace to this household’: see notes on Lk 2:14 and Mt 10:13.
- 10:6 A peaceful person: literally, “a son of peace.”
- 10:13–16 The call to repentance that is a part of the proclamation of the kingdom brings with it a severe judgment for those who hear it and reject it.
- 10:15 The netherworld: the underworld, the place of the dead (Acts 2:27, 31) here contrasted with heaven; see also note on Mt 11:23.
- 10:18 I have observed Satan fall like lightning: the effect of the mission of the seventy-two is characterized by the Lucan Jesus as a symbolic fall of Satan. As the kingdom of God is gradually being established, evil in all its forms is being defeated; the dominion of Satan over humanity is at an end.
- 10:21 Revealed them to the childlike: a restatement of the theme announced in Lk 8:10: the mysteries of the kingdom are revealed to the disciples. See also note on Mt 11:25–27.
- 10:25–37 In response to a question from a Jewish legal expert about inheriting eternal life, Jesus illustrates the superiority of love over legalism through the story of the good Samaritan. The law of love proclaimed in the “Sermon on the Plain” (Lk 6:27–36) is exemplified by one whom the legal expert would have considered ritually impure (see Jn 4:9). Moreover, the identity of the “neighbor” requested by the legal expert (Lk 10:29) turns out to be a Samaritan, the enemy of the Jew (see note on Lk 9:52).
- 10:25 Scholar of the law: an expert in the Mosaic law, and probably a member of the group elsewhere identified as the scribes (Lk 5:21).
- 10:31–32 Priest…Levite: those religious representatives of Judaism who would have been expected to be models of “neighbor” to the victim pass him by.
- 10:38–42 The story of Martha and Mary further illustrates the importance of hearing the words of the teacher and the concern with women in Luke.
- 10:39 Sat beside the Lord at his feet: it is remarkable for first-century Palestinian Judaism that a woman would assume the posture of a disciple at the master’s feet (see also Lk 8:35; Acts 22:3), and it reveals a characteristic attitude of Jesus toward women in this gospel (see Lk 8:2–3).
- 10:42 There is need of only one thing: some ancient versions read, “there is need of few things”; another important, although probably inferior, reading found in some manuscripts is, “there is need of few things, or of one.”

Jesus Sends Out the Seventy-Two(A)(B)(C)
10 After this the Lord(D) appointed seventy-two[a] others(E) and sent them two by two(F) ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go.(G) 2 He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.(H) 3 Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.(I) 4 Do not take a purse or bag or sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road.
5 “When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ 6 If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. 7 Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages.(J) Do not move around from house to house.
8 “When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is offered to you.(K) 9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God(L) has come near to you.’ 10 But when you enter a town and are not welcomed, go into its streets and say, 11 ‘Even the dust of your town we wipe from our feet as a warning to you.(M) Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God has come near.’(N) 12 I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom(O) than for that town.(P)
13 “Woe to you,(Q) Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth(R) and ashes. 14 But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you. 15 And you, Capernaum,(S) will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades.[b]
16 “Whoever listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; but whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”(T)
17 The seventy-two(U) returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.”(V)
18 He replied, “I saw Satan(W) fall like lightning from heaven.(X) 19 I have given you authority to trample on snakes(Y) and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. 20 However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”(Z)
21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.(AA) Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.
22 “All things have been committed to me by my Father.(AB) No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”(AC)
23 Then he turned to his disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. 24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”(AD)
The Parable of the Good Samaritan(AE)
25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(AF)
26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”
27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[c];(AG) and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[d]”(AH)
28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”(AI)
29 But he wanted to justify himself,(AJ) so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side.(AK) 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan,(AL) as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii[e] and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’
36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”
Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”
At the Home of Martha and Mary
38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha(AM) opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary,(AN) who sat at the Lord’s feet(AO) listening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care(AP) that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”
41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried(AQ) and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one.[f](AR) Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

King James Version
10 After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.
2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:
9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
23 And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:
24 For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,
34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?
37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38 Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
