La missione dei settanta discepoli

10 (A)Dopo queste cose, il Signore designò altri settanta[a] discepoli e li mandò a due a due davanti a sé in ogni città e luogo dove egli stesso stava per andare. E diceva loro: «La mèsse è grande, ma gli operai sono pochi; pregate dunque il Signore della mèsse perché spinga degli operai nella sua mèsse. Andate! Ecco, io vi mando come agnelli in mezzo ai lupi. Non portate né borsa, né sacca, né calzari, e non salutate nessuno per via. In qualunque casa entriate, dite prima: “Pace a questa casa!” Se vi è lì un figlio di pace, la vostra pace riposerà su di lui; se no, ritornerà a voi. Rimanete in quella stessa casa, mangiando e bevendo di quello che hanno, perché l’operaio è degno del suo salario[b]. Non passate di casa in casa. In qualunque città entriate, se vi ricevono, mangiate ciò che vi sarà messo davanti, guarite i malati che ci saranno e dite loro: “Il regno di Dio si è avvicinato a voi”. 10 Ma in qualunque città entriate, se non vi ricevono, uscite sulle piazze e dite: 11 “Perfino la polvere della vostra città che si è attaccata ai nostri piedi[c], noi la scuotiamo contro di voi; sappiate tuttavia questo, che il regno di Dio si è avvicinato a voi[d]”. 12 Io vi dico[e] che in quel giorno la sorte di Sodoma sarà più tollerabile di quella di tale città.

Gesù rimprovera le città impenitenti

13 (B)«Guai a te, Corazin! Guai a te, Betsàida! Perché se in Tiro e in Sidone fossero state fatte le opere potenti compiute tra di voi, già da tempo si sarebbero ravvedute, sedendo con sacco e cenere. 14 Perciò, nel giudizio, la sorte di Tiro e di Sidone sarà più tollerabile della vostra. 15 E tu, Capernaum, sarai forse innalzata fino al cielo? No, tu scenderai fino all’Ades[f].

16 Chi ascolta voi ascolta me; chi respinge voi respinge me, e chi rifiuta me rifiuta Colui che mi ha mandato».

17 (C)Or i settanta tornarono pieni di gioia, dicendo: «Signore, anche i demòni ci sono sottoposti nel tuo nome». 18 Ed egli disse loro: «Io vedevo Satana cadere dal cielo come folgore. 19 Ecco, io vi ho dato[g] il potere di camminare sopra serpenti e scorpioni, e su tutta la potenza del nemico; nulla potrà farvi del male. 20 Tuttavia, non vi rallegrate perché gli spiriti vi sono sottoposti, ma rallegratevi[h] perché i vostri nomi sono scritti nei cieli».

21 In quella stessa ora, Gesù, mosso dallo Spirito Santo, esultò[i] e disse: «Io ti rendo lode, o Padre, Signore del cielo e della terra, perché hai nascosto queste cose ai sapienti e agli intelligenti, e le hai rivelate ai piccoli! Sì, Padre, perché così ti è piaciuto! 22 Ogni cosa[j] mi è stata data in mano dal Padre mio; e nessuno sa chi è il Figlio, se non il Padre, né chi è il Padre, se non il Figlio e colui al quale il Figlio voglia rivelarlo». 23 E, rivolgendosi ai discepoli, disse loro privatamente: «Beati gli occhi che vedono quello che voi vedete! 24 Perché vi dico che molti profeti e re hanno desiderato vedere quello che voi vedete, e non l’hanno visto; e udire quello che voi udite, e non l’hanno udito».

Il buon Samaritano

25 (D)Ed ecco, un dottore della legge si alzò per metterlo alla prova, dicendo: «Maestro, che devo fare per ereditare la vita eterna?» 26 Gesù gli disse: «Nella legge che cosa sta scritto? Come leggi?» 27 Egli rispose: «Ama il Signore Dio tuo con tutto il tuo cuore, con tutta l’anima tua, con tutta la forza tua, con tutta la mente tua[k], e il tuo prossimo come te stesso[l]». 28 Gesù gli disse: «Hai risposto esattamente; fa’ questo e vivrai». 29 Ma egli, volendo giustificarsi, disse a Gesù: «E chi è il mio prossimo?» 30 Gesù rispose: «Un uomo scendeva da Gerusalemme a Gerico e s’imbatté nei briganti, che lo spogliarono, lo ferirono e poi se ne andarono, lasciandolo mezzo morto. 31 Per caso un sacerdote scendeva per quella stessa strada, ma quando lo vide, passò oltre dal lato opposto. 32 Così pure un Levita, quando giunse in quel luogo e lo vide, passò oltre dal lato opposto. 33 Ma un Samaritano, che era in viaggio, giunse presso di lui e, vedendolo, ne ebbe pietà; 34 avvicinatosi, fasciò le sue piaghe versandovi sopra olio e vino, poi lo mise sulla propria cavalcatura, lo condusse a una locanda e si prese cura di lui. 35 Il giorno dopo [, prima di partire], presi due denari, li diede all’oste e [gli] disse: “Prenditi cura di lui; e tutto ciò che spenderai di più, te lo rimborserò al mio ritorno”. 36 Quale [dunque] di questi tre ti pare essere stato il prossimo di colui che s’imbatté nei ladroni?» 37 Quegli [quindi] rispose: «Colui che gli usò misericordia». Gesù gli disse: «Va’, e fa’ anche tu la stessa cosa».

Marta e Maria

38 (E)Mentre[m] erano in cammino, Gesù entrò in un villaggio; e una donna, di nome Marta, lo ospitò [in casa sua]. 39 Marta aveva una sorella chiamata Maria, la quale, sedutasi ai piedi del Signore[n], ascoltava la sua parola. 40 Ma Marta, tutta presa dalle faccende domestiche, venne e disse: «Signore, non ti importa che mia sorella mi abbia lasciata sola a servire? Dille dunque che mi aiuti». 41 Ma il Signore[o] le rispose: «Marta, Marta, tu ti affanni e sei agitata per molte cose, ma una cosa sola è necessaria[p]. 42 Maria ha scelto la parte buona che non le sarà tolta».

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.”

Jesus Sends Out the Seventy-Two

10 After this the Lord appointed (A)seventy-two[a] others and (B)sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go. (C)And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. (D)Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest. Go your way; (E)behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. (F)Carry no moneybag, no knapsack, no sandals, and (G)greet no one on the road. Whatever house you enter, first say, (H)‘Peace be to this house!’ And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, (I)it will return to you. And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for (J)the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house. Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you. Heal the sick in it and say to them, (K)‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ 10 But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go into its streets and say, 11 (L)‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that (M)the kingdom of God has come near.’ 12 I tell you, (N)it will be more bearable on (O)that day for Sodom than for that town.

Woe to Unrepentant Cities

13 (P)“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in (Q)Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 (R)But it will be more bearable in the judgment for (S)Tyre and Sidon than for you. 15 And you, Capernaum, (T)will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to (U)Hades.

16 (V)“The one who hears you hears me, and (W)the one who rejects you rejects me, and (X)the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”

The Return of the Seventy-Two

17 (Y)The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, (Z)even the demons are subject to us in your name!” 18 And he said to them, (AA)“I saw Satan (AB)fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I have given you authority (AC)to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of (AD)the enemy, and (AE)nothing shall hurt you. 20 (AF)Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that (AG)your names are written in heaven.”

Jesus Rejoices in the Father's Will

21 (AH)In that same hour (AI)he rejoiced (AJ)in the Holy Spirit and said, “I thank you, Father, (AK)Lord of heaven and earth, that (AL)you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and (AM)revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for (AN)such was your gracious will.[b] 22 (AO)All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is (AP)except the Father, or who the Father is (AQ)except the Son and anyone (AR)to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”

23 Then turning to the disciples he said privately, (AS)“Blessed are the eyes that see what you see! 24 For I tell you (AT)that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.”

The Parable of the Good Samaritan

25 (AU)And behold, a (AV)lawyer stood up to (AW)put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to (AX)inherit eternal life?” 26 He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” 27 And he answered, (AY)“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and (AZ)your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; (BA)do this, and you will live.”

29 But he, (BB)desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 Jesus replied, “A man (BC)was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a (BD)priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. 32 So likewise (BE)a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a (BF)Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion. 34 He went to him and (BG)bound up his wounds, pouring on (BH)oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 And the next day he took out two (BI)denarii[c] and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him, and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.’ 36 Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” 37 He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.”

Martha and Mary

38 Now as they went on their way, Jesus[d] entered a village. And a woman named (BJ)Martha (BK)welcomed him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called (BL)Mary, who (BM)sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are (BN)anxious and troubled about many things, 42 but one thing is necessary.[e] Mary has chosen (BO)the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.”
