10 μετα δε ταυτα ανεδειξεν ο κυριος ετερους εβδομηκοντα [δυο] και απεστειλεν αυτους ανα δυο [δυο] προ προσωπου αυτου εις πασαν πολιν και τοπον ου ημελλεν αυτος ερχεσθαι

ελεγεν δε προς αυτους ο μεν θερισμος πολυς οι δε εργαται ολιγοι δεηθητε ουν του κυριου του θερισμου οπως εργατας εκβαλη εις τον θερισμον αυτου

υπαγετε ιδου αποστελλω υμας ως αρνας εν μεσω λυκων

μη βασταζετε βαλλαντιον μη πηραν μη υποδηματα και μηδενα κατα την οδον ασπασησθε

εις ην δ αν εισελθητε οικιαν πρωτον λεγετε ειρηνη τω οικω τουτω

και εαν εκει η υιος ειρηνης επαναπαησεται επ αυτον η ειρηνη υμων ει δε μη γε εφ υμας ανακαμψει

εν αυτη δε τη οικια μενετε εσθιοντες και πινοντες τα παρ αυτων αξιος γαρ ο εργατης του μισθου αυτου μη μεταβαινετε εξ οικιας εις οικιαν

και εις ην αν πολιν εισερχησθε και δεχωνται υμας εσθιετε τα παρατιθεμενα υμιν

και θεραπευετε τους εν αυτη ασθενεις και λεγετε αυτοις ηγγικεν εφ υμας η βασιλεια του θεου

10 εις ην δ αν πολιν εισελθητε και μη δεχωνται υμας εξελθοντες εις τας πλατειας αυτης ειπατε

11 και τον κονιορτον τον κολληθεντα ημιν εκ της πολεως υμων εις τους ποδας απομασσομεθα υμιν πλην τουτο γινωσκετε οτι ηγγικεν η βασιλεια του θεου

12 λεγω υμιν οτι σοδομοις εν τη ημερα εκεινη ανεκτοτερον εσται η τη πολει εκεινη

13 ουαι σοι χοραζιν ουαι σοι βηθσαιδα οτι ει εν τυρω και σιδωνι εγενηθησαν αι δυναμεις αι γενομεναι εν υμιν παλαι αν εν σακκω και σποδω καθημενοι μετενοησαν

14 πλην τυρω και σιδωνι ανεκτοτερον εσται εν τη κρισει η υμιν

15 και συ καφαρναουμ μη εως ουρανου υψωθηση εως του αδου καταβηση

16 ο ακουων υμων εμου ακουει και ο αθετων υμας εμε αθετει ο δε εμε αθετων αθετει τον αποστειλαντα με

17 υπεστρεψαν δε οι εβδομηκοντα [δυο] μετα χαρας λεγοντες κυριε και τα δαιμονια υποτασσεται ημιν εν τω ονοματι σου

18 ειπεν δε αυτοις εθεωρουν τον σαταναν ως αστραπην εκ του ουρανου πεσοντα

19 ιδου δεδωκα υμιν την εξουσιαν του πατειν επανω οφεων και σκορπιων και επι πασαν την δυναμιν του εχθρου και ουδεν υμας ου μη αδικησει

20 πλην εν τουτω μη χαιρετε οτι τα πνευματα υμιν υποτασσεται χαιρετε δε οτι τα ονοματα υμων εγγεγραπται εν τοις ουρανοις

21 εν αυτη τη ωρα ηγαλλιασατο τω πνευματι τω αγιω και ειπεν εξομολογουμαι σοι πατερ κυριε του ουρανου και της γης οτι απεκρυψας ταυτα απο σοφων και συνετων και απεκαλυψας αυτα νηπιοις ναι ο πατηρ οτι ουτως ευδοκια εγενετο εμπροσθεν σου

22 παντα μοι παρεδοθη υπο του πατρος μου και ουδεις γινωσκει τις εστιν ο υιος ει μη ο πατηρ και τις εστιν ο πατηρ ει μη ο υιος και ω εαν βουληται ο υιος αποκαλυψαι

23 και στραφεις προς τους μαθητας κατ ιδιαν ειπεν μακαριοι οι οφθαλμοι οι βλεποντες α βλεπετε

24 λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι πολλοι προφηται και βασιλεις ηθελησαν ιδειν α υμεις βλεπετε και ουκ ειδαν και ακουσαι α ακουετε και ουκ ηκουσαν

25 και ιδου νομικος τις ανεστη εκπειραζων αυτον λεγων διδασκαλε τι ποιησας ζωην αιωνιον κληρονομησω

26 ο δε ειπεν προς αυτον εν τω νομω τι γεγραπται πως αναγινωσκεις

27 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν αγαπησεις κυριον τον θεον σου εξ ολης καρδιας σου και εν ολη τη ψυχη σου και εν ολη τη ισχυι σου και εν ολη τη διανοια σου και τον πλησιον σου ως σεαυτον

28 ειπεν δε αυτω ορθως απεκριθης τουτο ποιει και ζηση

29 ο δε θελων δικαιωσαι εαυτον ειπεν προς τον ιησουν και τις εστιν μου πλησιον

30 υπολαβων ο ιησους ειπεν ανθρωπος τις κατεβαινεν απο ιερουσαλημ εις ιεριχω και λησταις περιεπεσεν οι και εκδυσαντες αυτον και πληγας επιθεντες απηλθον αφεντες ημιθανη

31 κατα συγκυριαν δε ιερευς τις κατεβαινεν [εν] τη οδω εκεινη και ιδων αυτον αντιπαρηλθεν

32 ομοιως δε και λευιτης κατα τον τοπον ελθων και ιδων αντιπαρηλθεν

33 σαμαριτης δε τις οδευων ηλθεν κατ αυτον και ιδων εσπλαγχνισθη

34 και προσελθων κατεδησεν τα τραυματα αυτου επιχεων ελαιον και οινον επιβιβασας δε αυτον επι το ιδιον κτηνος ηγαγεν αυτον εις πανδοχειον και επεμεληθη αυτου

35 και επι την αυριον εκβαλων δυο δηναρια εδωκεν τω πανδοχει και ειπεν επιμεληθητι αυτου και ο τι αν προσδαπανησης εγω εν τω επανερχεσθαι με αποδωσω σοι

36 τις τουτων των τριων πλησιον δοκει σοι γεγονεναι του εμπεσοντος εις τους ληστας

37 ο δε ειπεν ο ποιησας το ελεος μετ αυτου ειπεν δε αυτω [ο] ιησους πορευου και συ ποιει ομοιως

38 εν δε τω πορευεσθαι αυτους αυτος εισηλθεν εις κωμην τινα γυνη δε τις ονοματι μαρθα υπεδεξατο αυτον εις την οικιαν

39 και τηδε ην αδελφη καλουμενη μαριαμ [η] και παρακαθεσθεισα προς τους ποδας του κυριου ηκουεν τον λογον αυτου

40 η δε μαρθα περιεσπατο περι πολλην διακονιαν επιστασα δε ειπεν κυριε ου μελει σοι οτι η αδελφη μου μονην με κατελειπεν διακονειν ειπον ουν αυτη ινα μοι συναντιλαβηται

41 αποκριθεις δε ειπεν αυτη ο κυριος μαρθα μαρθα μεριμνας και θορυβαζη περι πολλα

42 ολιγων δε εστιν χρεια η ενος μαριαμ γαρ την αγαθην μεριδα εξελεξατο ητις ουκ αφαιρεθησεται αυτης

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) 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) Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.(I) Do not take a purse or bag or sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road.

“When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages.(J) Do not move around from house to house.

“When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is offered to you.(K) 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.”

10 Pagkatapos nga ng mga bagay na ito, ang Panginoon ay naghalal ng pitongpu pa, at sila'y sinugong daladalawa, sa unahan ng kaniyang mukha, sa bawa't bayan at dako na kaniyang paroroonan.

At sinabi niya sa kanila, Sa katotohana'y marami ang aanihin, datapuwa't kakaunti ang mga manggagawa: kaya't idalangin ninyo sa Panginoon ng aanihin, na magpadala siya ng mga manggagawa sa kaniyang aanihin.

Magsiyaon kayo sa iyong lakad; narito, sinusugo ko kayong gaya ng mga kordero sa gitna ng mga lobo.

Huwag kayong magsipagdala ng supot ng salapi, ng supot man ng pagkain, ng mga pangyapak man; at huwag kayong magsibati kanino mang tao sa daan.

At sa alin mang bahay na inyong pasukin, ay sabihin ninyo muna, Kapayapaan nawa sa bahay na ito.

At kung mayroon doong anak ng kapayapaan, ang inyong kapayapaa'y mananatili sa kaniya: datapuwa't kung wala, ay babalik ito sa inyong muli.

At magsipanatili kayo sa bahay ding yaon, na kanin at inumin ninyo ang mga bagay na kanilang ibigay: sapagka't ang manggagawa ay marapat sa kaniyang kaupahan. Huwag kayong mangagpalipatlipat sa bahaybahay.

At sa alin mang bayan na iyong pasukin, at kayo'y kanilang tanggapin, ay kanin ninyo ang mga bagay na ihain sa inyo:

At pagalingin ninyo ang mga maysakit na nangaroon, at sabihin ninyo sa kanila, Lumapit na sa inyo ang kaharian ng Dios.

10 Datapuwa't sa alin mang bayan na inyong pasukin, at hindi kayo tanggapin, magsilabas kayo sa kanilang mga lansangan at inyong sabihin,

11 Pati ng alabok ng inyong bayan na kumakapit sa aming paa, ay ipinapagpag namin laban sa inyo: gayon ma'y inyong talastasin ito, na lumapit na ang kaharian ng Dios.

12 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, Sa araw na yaon ay higit na mapagpapaumanhinan ang Sodoma kay sa bayang yaon.

13 Sa aba mo, Corazin! sa aba mo, Betsaida! sapagka't kung sa Tiro at sa Sidon sana ginawa ang mga gawang makapangyarihang ginawa sa inyo, ay maluwat na dising nangagsisi, na nangauupong may kayong magaspang at abo.

14 Datapuwa't sa paghuhukom, higit na mapagpapaumanhinan ang Tiro at Sidon, kay sa inyo.

15 At ikaw, Capernaum, magpapakataas ka hanggang sa langit? ikaw ay ibaba hanggang sa Hades.

16 Ang nakikinig sa inyo, ay sa akin nakikinig; at ang nagtatakuwil sa inyo ay ako ang itinatakuwil; at ang nagtatakuwil sa akin ay itinatakuwil ang sa aki'y nagsugo.

17 At nagsipagbalik ang pitongpu na may kagalakan, na nangagsasabi, Panginoon, pati ang mga demonio ay nagsisisuko sa amin sa iyong pangalan.

18 At sinabi niya sa kanila, Nakita ko si Satanas, na nahuhulog na gaya ng lintik, mula sa langit.

19 Narito, binigyan ko kayo ng kapamahalaan na inyong yurakan ang mga ahas at ang mga alakdan, at sa ibabaw ng lahat ng kapangyarihan ng kaaway: at sa anomang paraa'y hindi kayo maaano.

20 Gayon ma'y huwag ninyong ikagalak ito, na ang mga espiritu ay nagsisisuko sa inyo; kundi inyong ikagalak na nangasusulat ang inyong mga pangalan sa langit.

21 Nang oras ding yaon siya'y nagalak sa Espiritu Santo, at sinabi, Ako'y nagpapasalamat sa iyo, Oh Ama, Panginoon ng langit at lupa, na iyong inilihim ang mga bagay na ito sa mga pantas at matatalino, at ipinahayag mo sa mga sanggol: gayon nga, Ama; sapagka't gayon ang nakalulugod sa iyong paningin.

22 Ang lahat ng mga bagay ay ibinigay sa akin ng aking Ama: at walang nakakakilala kung sino ang Anak, kundi ang Ama; at kung sino ang Ama, kundi ang Anak, at yaong ibiging pagpahayagan ng Anak.

23 At paglingon sa mga alagad, ay sinabi niya ng bukod, Mapapalad ang mga matang nangakakakita ng mga bagay na inyong nangakikita:

24 Sapagka't sinasabi ko sa inyo, na maraming propeta at mga hari ang nangaghahangad na mangakakita ng mga bagay na inyong nangakikita, at hindi nila nangakita at mangarinig ang mga bagay na inyong nangaririnig, at hindi nila nangarinig.

25 At narito, ang isang tagapagtanggol ng kautusan ay nagtindig at siya'y tinutukso, na sinasabi, Guro, anong aking gagawin upang magmana ng walang hanggang buhay?

26 At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Ano ang nasusulat sa kautusan? ano ang nababasa mo?

27 At pagsagot niya'y sinabi, Iibigin mo ang Panginoon mong Dios ng buong puso mo, at ng buong kaluluwa mo, at ng buong lakas mo, at ng buong pagiisip mo; at ang iyong kapuwa na gaya ng iyong sarili.

28 At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Matuwid ang sagot mo: gawin mo ito, at mabubuhay ka.

29 Datapuwa't siya, na ibig magaringganap sa kaniyang sarili, ay nagsabi kay Jesus, At sino ang aking kapuwa tao?

30 Sumagot si Jesus at sinabi, Isang tao'y bumababa sa Jerico na mula sa Jerusalem; at siya'y nahulog sa kamay ng mga tulisan, na sa kaniya'y sumamsam at sa kaniya'y humampas, at nagsialis na siya'y iniwang halos patay na.

31 At nagkataong bumababa sa daang yaon ang isang saserdote; at nang makita siya ay dumaan sa kabilang tabi.

32 At sa gayon ding paraan ang isang Levita naman, nang dumating siya sa dakong yaon, at makita siya, ay dumaan sa kabilang tabi.

33 Datapuwa't ang isang Samaritano, sa kaniyang paglalakbay, ay dumating sa kinaroroonan niya: at nang siya'y makita niya, ay nagdalang habag,

34 At lumapit sa kaniya, at tinalian ang kaniyang mga sugat, na binuhusan ng langis at alak; at siya'y isinakay sa kaniyang sariling hayop, at dinala siya sa bahay-tuluyan, at siya'y inalagaan.

35 At nang kinabukasa'y dumukot siya ng dalawang denario, at ibinigay sa katiwala ng bahay-tuluyan, at sinabi, Alagaan mo siya, at ang anomang magugol mong higit, ay aking pagbabayaran sa iyo pagbabalik ko.

36 Sino sa tatlong ito, sa akala mo, ang nagpakilalang kapuwa tao sa nahulog sa kamay ng mga tulisan?

37 At sinabi niya, Ang nagkaawanggawa sa kaniya. At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Humayo ka, at gayon din ang gawin mo.

38 Sa pagyaon nga nila sa kanilang lakad, ay pumasok siya sa isang nayon: at isang babaing nagngangalang Marta, ay tinanggap siya sa kaniyang bahay.

39 At siya'y may isang kapatid na tinatawag na Maria, na naupo rin naman sa mga paanan ng Panginoon, at pinakikinggan ang kaniyang salita.

40 Nguni't si Marta ay naliligalig sa maraming paglilingkod; at siya'y lumapit sa kaniya, at sinabi, Panginoon, wala bagang anoman sa iyo, na pabayaan ako ng aking kapatid na babae na maglingkod na magisa? iutos mo nga sa kaniya na ako'y tulungan niya.

41 Datapuwa't sumagot ang Panginoon, at sinabi sa kaniya, Marta, Marta naliligalig ka at nababagabag tungkol sa maraming bagay:

42 Datapuwa't isang bagay ang kinakailangan: sapagka't pinili ni Maria ang magaling na bahagi, na hindi aalisin sa kaniya.

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.

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.

Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.

And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.

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.

And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:

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.

The Seventy Sent Out

10 After these things the Lord appointed [a]seventy others also, and (A)sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. Then He said to them, (B)“The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore (C)pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. Go your way; (D)behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves. (E)Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and (F)greet no one along the road. (G)But whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you. (H)And remain in the same house, (I)eating and drinking such things as they give, for (J)the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house. Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you. (K)And heal the sick there, and say to them, (L)‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ 10 But whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, 11 (M)‘The very dust of your city which clings to [b]us we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.’ 12 [c]But I say to you that (N)it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that city.

Woe to the Impenitent Cities(O)

13 (P)“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! (Q)For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you. 15 (R)And you, Capernaum, [d]who are (S)exalted to heaven, (T)will be brought down to Hades. 16 (U)He who hears you hears Me, (V)he who rejects you rejects Me, and (W)he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me.”

The Seventy Return with Joy

17 Then (X)the [e]seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”

18 And He said to them, (Y)“I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, (Z)I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but [f]rather rejoice because (AA)your names are written in heaven.”

Jesus Rejoices in the Spirit(AB)

21 (AC)In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 22 (AD)All[g] things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and (AE)no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.

23 Then He turned to His disciples and said privately, (AF)“Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see; 24 for I tell you (AG)that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it.

The Parable of the Good Samaritan(AH)

25 And behold, a certain [h]lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, (AI)“Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?

27 So he answered and said, (AJ)‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and (AK)‘your neighbor as yourself.’

28 And He said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and (AL)you will live.”

29 But he, wanting to (AM)justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

30 Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among [i]thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, (AN)he passed by on the other side. 32 Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain (AO)Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had (AP)compassion. 34 So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; and he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 On the next day, [j]when he departed, he took out two (AQ)denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.’ 36 So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?”

37 And he said, “He who showed mercy on him.”

Then Jesus said to him, (AR)“Go and do likewise.”

Mary and Martha Worship and Serve

38 Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named (AS)Martha welcomed Him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called Mary, (AT)who also (AU)sat at [k]Jesus’ feet and heard His word. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.”

41 And [l]Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. 42 But (AV)one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
