Jesus envia seus discípulos

10 Depois disso, o Senhor escolheu outros setenta e dois[a] discípulos e os enviou adiante, dois a dois, às cidades e aos lugares que ele planejava visitar. Estas foram suas instruções: “A colheita é grande, mas os trabalhadores são poucos. Orem ao Senhor da colheita; peçam que ele envie mais trabalhadores para seus campos. Agora vão e lembrem-se de que eu os envio como cordeiros no meio de lobos. Não levem dinheiro algum, nem bolsa de viagem, nem um par de sandálias extras. E não se detenham para cumprimentar ninguém pelo caminho.

“Quando entrarem numa casa, digam primeiro: ‘Que a paz de Deus esteja nesta casa’. Se os que vivem ali forem gente de paz, a bênção permanecerá; se não forem, a bênção voltará a vocês. Permaneçam naquela casa e comam e bebam o que lhes derem, pois quem trabalha merece seu salário. Não fiquem mudando de casa em casa.

“Quando entrarem numa cidade e ela os receber bem, comam o que lhes oferecerem. Curem os enfermos e digam-lhes: ‘Agora o reino de Deus chegou até vocês’.[b] 10 Mas, se uma cidade se recusar a recebê-los, saiam pelas ruas e digam: 11 ‘Limpamos de nossos pés até o pó desta cidade em sinal de reprovação. E saibam disto: o reino de Deus chegou!’.[c] 12 Eu lhes garanto que, no dia do juízo, até Sodoma será tratada com menos rigor que aquela cidade.

13 “Que aflição as espera, Corazim e Betsaida! Porque, se nas cidades de Tiro e Sidom tivessem sido realizados os milagres que realizei em vocês, há muito tempo seus habitantes teriam se arrependido e demonstrado isso vestindo panos de saco e jogando cinzas sobre a cabeça. 14 Eu lhes digo que, no dia do juízo, Tiro e Sidom serão tratadas com menos rigor que vocês. 15 E você, Cafarnaum, será elevada até o céu? Não, descerá até o lugar dos mortos”.[d]

16 Então ele disse aos discípulos: “Quem aceita sua mensagem também me aceita, e quem os rejeita também me rejeita. E quem me rejeita também rejeita aquele que me enviou”.

17 Quando os setenta e dois discípulos voltaram, relataram com alegria: “Senhor, até os demônios nos obedecem pela sua autoridade!”.

18 Então ele lhes disse: “Vi Satanás caindo do céu como um relâmpago! 19 Eu lhes dei autoridade para pisarem sobre cobras e escorpiões, e sobre todo o poder do inimigo. Nada lhes causará dano. 20 Mas não se alegrem porque os espíritos impuros lhes obedecem; alegrem-se porque seus nomes estão registrados no céu”.

Jesus agradece ao Pai

21 Naquele momento, Jesus foi tomado da alegria do Espírito Santo e disse: “Pai, Senhor dos céus e da terra, eu te agradeço porque escondeste estas coisas dos que se consideram sábios e inteligentes e as revelaste aos que são como crianças. Sim, Pai, foi do teu agrado fazê-lo assim.

22 “Meu Pai me confiou todas as coisas. Ninguém conhece verdadeiramente o Filho, a não ser o Pai, e ninguém conhece verdadeiramente o Pai, a não ser o Filho e aqueles a quem o Filho escolhe revelá-lo”.

23 Então, em particular, ele se voltou para os discípulos e disse: “Felizes os olhos que veem o que vocês viram. 24 Eu lhes digo: muitos profetas e reis desejaram ver o que vocês têm visto e ouvir o que vocês têm ouvido, mas não puderam”.

O mandamento mais importante

25 Certo dia, um especialista da lei se levantou para pôr Jesus à prova com esta pergunta: “Mestre, o que preciso fazer para herdar a vida eterna?”.

26 Jesus respondeu: “O que diz a lei de Moisés? Como você a entende?”.

27 O homem respondeu: “‘Ame o Senhor, seu Deus, de todo o seu coração, de toda a sua alma, de toda a sua força e de toda a sua mente’ e ‘Ame o seu próximo como a si mesmo’”.[e]

28 “Está correto!”, disse Jesus. “Faça isso, e você viverá.”

A parábola do bom samaritano

29 O homem, porém, querendo justificar suas ações, perguntou a Jesus: “E quem é o meu próximo?”.

30 Jesus respondeu com uma história: “Certo homem descia de Jerusalém a Jericó, quando foi atacado por bandidos. Eles lhe tiraram as roupas, o espancaram e o deixaram quase morto à beira da estrada.

31 “Por acaso, descia por ali um sacerdote. Quando viu o homem caído, atravessou para o outro lado da estrada. 32 Um levita fazia o mesmo caminho e viu o homem caído, mas também atravessou e passou longe.

33 “Então veio um samaritano e, ao ver o homem, teve compaixão dele. 34 Foi até ele, tratou de seus ferimentos com óleo e vinho e os enfaixou. Depois, colocou o homem em seu jumento e o levou a uma hospedaria, onde cuidou dele. 35 No dia seguinte, deu duas moedas de prata[f] ao dono da hospedaria e disse: ‘Cuide deste homem. Se você precisar gastar a mais com ele, eu lhe pagarei a diferença quando voltar’.

36 “Qual desses três você diria que foi o próximo do homem atacado pelos bandidos?”, perguntou Jesus.

37 O especialista da lei respondeu: “Aquele que teve misericórdia dele”.

Então Jesus disse: “Vá e faça o mesmo”.

Jesus visita Marta e Maria

38 Jesus e seus discípulos seguiram viagem e chegaram a um povoado onde uma mulher chamada Marta os recebeu em sua casa. 39 Sua irmã, Maria, sentou-se aos pés de Jesus e ouvia o que ele ensinava. 40 Marta, porém, estava ocupada com seus muitos afazeres. Foi a Jesus e disse: “Senhor, não o incomoda que minha irmã fique aí sentada enquanto eu faço todo o trabalho? Diga-lhe que venha me ajudar!”.

41 Mas o Senhor respondeu: “Marta, Marta, você se preocupa e se inquieta com todos esses detalhes. 42 Apenas uma coisa é necessária. Quanto a Maria, ela fez a escolha certa, e ninguém tomará isso dela”.

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.”

Seventy Are Sent Out

10 After this the Lord chose seventy others. He sent them out two together to every city and place where He would be going later. Jesus said to them, “There is much grain ready to gather. But the workmen are few. Pray then to the Lord Who is the Owner of the grain-fields that He will send workmen to gather His grain. Go on your way. Listen! I send you out like lambs among wolves. Take no money. Do not take a bag or shoes. Speak to no one along the way. When you go into a house, say that you hope peace will come to them. If a man who loves peace lives there, your good wishes will come to him. If your good wishes are not received, they will come back to you. Stay in the same house. Eat and drink what they give you. The workman should have his thanks. Do not move from house to house.

“Whenever a city receives you, eat the things that are put before you there. Heal the sick. Say to them, ‘The holy nation of God is near.’ 10 Whatever city does not receive you, go into its streets and say, 11 ‘Even the dust of your city that is on our feet we are cleaning off against you. But understand this, the holy nation of God has come near you!’ 12 I tell you, on the day men stand before God, it will be easier for the city of Sodom than for that city.

13 “It is bad for you, city of Chorazin! It is bad for you, town of Bethsaida! For if the powerful works which were done in you had been done in the cities of Tyre and Sidon they would have turned from their sins long ago. They would have shown their sorrow by putting on clothes made from hair and would have sat in ashes. 14 It will be better for Tyre and Sidon on the day men stand before God and be told they are guilty than for you. 15 And you, Capernaum, are you to be lifted up into heaven? You will be taken down to hell. 16 Whoever listens to you, listens to Me. Whoever has nothing to do with you, has nothing to do with Me. Whoever has nothing to do with Me, has nothing to do with the One Who sent Me.”

The Seventy Came Back

17 The seventy came back full of joy. They said, “Lord, even the demons obeyed us when we used Your name.” 18 Jesus said to them, “I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning. 19 Listen! I have given you power to walk on snakes. I have given you power over small animals with a sting of poison. I have given you power over all the power of the one who works against you. Nothing will hurt you. 20 Even so, you should not be happy because the demons obey you but be happy because your names are written in heaven.”

The Joy of the Holy Spirit

21 At this time Jesus was full of the joy of the Holy Spirit. He said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth. You have kept these things hidden from the wise and from those who have much learning. You have shown them to little children. Yes, Father, it was what you wanted done.

22 “Everything has been given to Me by My Father. No one knows the Son but the Father. No one knows the Father but the Son and the Son makes the Father known to those He chooses.”

23 Then He turned to His followers and said without anyone else hearing, “Happy are those who see what you see! 24 I tell you, many early preachers and kings have wanted to see the things you are seeing, but they did not see them. They have wanted to hear the things you are hearing, but they did not hear them.”

Jesus Talks to the Man Who Knew the Law

25 A man stood up who knew the Law and tried to trap Jesus. He said, “Teacher, what must I do to have life that lasts forever?” 26 Jesus said to him, “What is written in the Law? What does the Law say?” 27 The man said, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart. You must love Him with all your soul. You must love Him with all your strength. You must love Him with all your mind. You must love your neighbor as you love yourself.” 28 Jesus said to him, “You have said the right thing. Do this and you will have life.” 29 The man tried to make himself look good. He asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”

The Picture-Story of the Good Samaritan

30 Jesus said, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to the city of Jericho. Robbers came out after him. They took his clothes off and beat him. Then they went away, leaving him almost dead. 31 A religious leader was walking down that road and saw the man. But he went by on the other side. 32 In the same way, a man from the family group of Levi was walking down that road. When he saw the man who was hurt, he came near to him but kept on going on the other side of the road. 33 Then a man from the country of Samaria came by. He went up to the man. As he saw him, he had loving-pity on him. 34 He got down and put oil and wine on the places where he was hurt and put cloth around them. Then the man from Samaria put this man on his own donkey. He took him to a place where people stay for the night and cared for him. 35 The next day the man from Samaria was ready to leave. He gave the owner of that place two pieces of money to care for him. He said to him, ‘Take care of this man. If you use more than this, I will give it to you when I come again.’

36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who was beaten by the robbers?” 37 The man who knew the Law said, “The one who showed loving-pity on him.” Then Jesus said, “Go and do the same.”

Mary and Martha Care for Jesus

38 As they went on their way, they came to a town where a woman named Martha lived. She cared for Jesus in her home. 39 Martha had a sister named Mary. Mary sat at the feet of Jesus and listened to all He said. 40 Martha was working hard getting the supper ready. She came to Jesus and said, “Do You see that my sister is not helping me? Tell her to help me.” 41 Jesus said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. 42 Only a few things are important, even just one. Mary has chosen the good thing. It will 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.”
