10 And after these things, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu gave smichah to shivim (seventy) others and sent them on ahead of him shnayim shnayim (two by two) into every shtetl and place where he was about to arrive.

And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach was saying to them, Indeed the Katzir is plentiful, but the poalim of the Katzir are few; therefore, ask the Adon of the Katzir that he might send out poalim into his Katzir.

Go I send you as kevasim (sheep) into the midst of ze’evim (wolves).

Do not carry a bag for kesef, nor a schnorrer’s sack (beggar’s bag), nor sandals, and, along the derech, dispense with time-consuming Birkat Shalom’s.

Into whatever bais you enter, first say, Shalom to this bais.

And if there is a ben hashalom there, your shalom will rest upon him. Otherwise, on you it will return.

Remain in the same bais eating and drinking the things with them. For worthy is the poel (worker) of his loin (wages). Do not move from bais to bais.

And into whichever shtetl you enter and they receive you, eat the okhel (food) being set before you,

And give refuah (healing) to the cholim (sick people) and say to them, The Malchut Hashem has come near you.

10 And into whatever shtetl you enter and they do not receive you, having gone out into the rekhovot (streets) of that shtetl,

11 Say, Even the [Goyishe unclean] dust from your shtetl, which clings to us, we shake off from our feet as an omen of din (judgment) against you. But have daas of this, that the Malchut Hashem has come near.

12 I [Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach] say to you, that for Sdom in Yom HaHu [Yom HaDin, the Day of Judgment] it will be more bearable than it will be for that shtetl.

13 Woe to you, Korazin, oy to you, Beit-Tzaidah, because if in Tzor and Tzidon had occurred the gevurot that have happened in you, long ago, they, sitting in sackcloth and ashes, would have made teshuva.

14 But for Tzor and Tzidon it will be more bearable in the Yom HaDin than for you.

15 And you, Kfar-Nachum, surely not up to Shomayim will you be exalted? To Gehinnom you will descend!

16 The one listening to you listens to me [Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach], and the one rejecting you, rejects me [Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach]. But the one rejecting me [Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach], rejects the One [the G-d of Yisroel] who sent me.

17 And the Shivim returned with simcha, saying, Adoneinu, even the shedim submit to us bShem of you [Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua, Yeshua].

18 And he said to them, I was seeing Hasatan falling like lightning from Shomayim. [YESHAYAH 14:12]

19 Hinei I have given to you the koach and the samchut to walk on nechashim (snakes) and akrabim (scorpions), and on all the koach of HaOyev, and nothing may by any means injure you.

20 But in this do not have a lev sameach, on account of the ruchot submitting to you, but have lev sameach that your shemot have been inscribed in Shomayim.

21 In the same hour Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach was full of simcha by the Ruach Hakodesh. And he said, Baruch Hashem, Avi, Adon HaShomayim vHaAretz, that You concealed these things from those with chochmah and seichel and You revealed them to yeladim. Ken, Avi, for thus it was well pleasing in Your sight.

22 Everything was handed over to me by Avi, and no one has daas of HaBen except HaAv. And no one has daas of HaAv except HaBen, and whomever HaBen wishes to reveal Him.

23 And, having turned to the talmidim in a yechidus, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Ashrey [are] the eyes seeing what you see.

24 For I say to you that many neviim and melachim wanted to see what you see and they did not see them, and to hear what you hear and they did not hear them.

25 And a certain Talmid Chacham, a Baal Torah, stood up, testing Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Rabbi, what mitzvah must I do to inherit Chayyei Olam?

26 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, In the Torah what has been written? How do you read it?

27 And in reply the Baal Torah said, VAHAVTA ES ADONOI ELOHECHA BKHOL LVAVCHA UVECHOL NAFSHECHA UVECHOL MODECHA [DEVARIM 6:4,5] and L’REACHA KAMOCHA [DEVARIM 6:5; VAYIKRA 19:18]

28 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, Your answer is frum. Richtik. Do this and you will live.

29 But because the Baal Torah wanted to justify himself, to be yitzdak im Hashem (justified with G-d, IYOV 25:4) on the basis of his own zchus (merit) he said to him, And who is my REA (neighbor)?

30 In reply, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said, A certain ish was coming down from Yerushalayim to Yericho, and he encountered shodedim. They stripped him and inflicted a klap, more than one, and they went away and left him half dead.

31 It so happened that a certain kohen was coming down by that derech, and, having seen him, he passed by on the other side. [VAYIKRA 21:1-3]

32 And likewise also a Levi happened upon the place, but when he came and saw him, he passed by on the other side.

33 But a certain Shomroni, traveling along on the derech, came upon him; and when he saw him, he was filled with rachmei shomayim.

34 And when this Shomroni approached, he bandaged the man’s wounds, pouring shemen and yayin over them; and when he had placed him upon his own donkey, he brought the man to a malon and cared for him.

35 And on the next day he produced two denarii and gave them to the inn keeper of the malon and said, Take care of him, and whatever you spend additionally, I will take care of, when I return.

36 Who of these shalosha seems to you to have become a re’a to the one having fallen among the shodedim?

37 And the Baal Torah answered, The one having shown the man rachamim. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to him, Go and do likewise.

38 And while they were on the derech, he entered into a certain shtetl. And a certain isha by name of Marta received him.

39 And this isha had an achot named Miryam, who sat down at the feet of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu listening to his dvar.

40 But Marta was distracted with much badinen. And having stood by, she said, Adoneinu, is it of no concern to you that my achot has left me alone to serve? Speak, then, to her to help me.

41 And in reply Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu said to her, Marta, Marta, you are anxious and worried about many things,

42 But one is necessary. For Miryam chose HaTov which will not be taken away from her.

Los setenta y dos enviados (Mt 9,37)

10 Después de esto, el Señor escogió también a otros setenta y dos, y los envió de dos en dos delante de él a todos los pueblos y lugares a donde él pensaba ir. Les dijo:

— La mies es mucha, pero son pocos los obreros. Por eso, pídanle al dueño de la mies que mande obreros a su mies. ¡Póngase en marcha! Yo los envío como corderos en medio de lobos. No lleven monedero, zurrón, ni calzado; y no se detengan tampoco a saludar a nadie en el camino. Cuando entren en alguna casa, digan primero: “Paz a esta casa”. Si los que viven allí son gente de paz, la paz del saludo quedará con ellos; si no lo son, la paz se volverá a ustedes. Quédense en la misma casa, comiendo y bebiendo de lo que tengan, porque el que trabaja tiene derecho a su salario. No vayan de casa en casa. Cuando lleguen a un pueblo donde los reciban con agrado, coman lo que les ofrezcan. Curen a los enfermos que haya en él y anuncien: “El reino de Dios está cerca de ustedes”. 10 Pero si entran en un pueblo donde se nieguen a recibirlos, recorran sus calles diciendo: 11 “¡Hasta el polvo de este pueblo, que se nos ha pegado a los pies, nos lo sacudimos contra ustedes! Sin embargo, sepan que el reino de Dios ya está cerca”. 12 Les digo que, en el día del juicio, los habitantes de Sodoma serán tratados con más clemencia que los de ese pueblo.

Lamento por las ciudades rebeldes (Mt 10,40; 11,20-24)

13 ¡Ay de ti, Corazín! ¡Ay de ti, Betsaida! Porque si en Tiro y en Sidón se hubieran realizado los milagros que se han realizado en medio de ustedes, ya hace mucho tiempo que sus habitantes se habrían convertido y lo habrían demostrado llevando luto y ceniza. 14 Por eso, Tiro y Sidón serán tratados en el juicio con más clemencia que ustedes.

15 Y tú, Cafarnaún, ¿crees que vas a ser encumbrada hasta el cielo? ¡Hasta el abismo, serás precipitada! 16 El que los escuche a ustedes, es como si me escuchara a mí; el que los rechaze a ustedes, es como si me rechazara a mí; y el que me rechace a mí, es como si rechazara al que me envió.

Regreso de los setenta y dos enviados

17 Los setenta y dos volvieron llenos de alegría, diciendo:

— ¡Señor, hasta los demonios nos obedecen en tu nombre!

18 Jesús les contestó:

— He visto a Satanás que caía del cielo como un rayo. 19 Les he dado a ustedes autoridad para que pisoteen las serpientes, los escorpiones y todo el poder del enemigo, sin que nada ni nadie pueda dañarlos. 20 Pero, aun así, no se alegren tanto de que los espíritus malignos los obedezcan como de que los nombres de ustedes estén escritos en el cielo.

Alegría de Jesús (Mt 11,25-27; 13,16-17)

21 En aquel mismo momento, el Espíritu Santo llenó de alegría a Jesús, que dijo:

— Padre, Señor del cielo y de la tierra, te alabo porque has ocultado todo esto a los sabios y entendidos y se lo has revelado a los sencillos. Sí, Padre, así lo has querido tú. 22 Mi Padre lo ha puesto todo en mis manos y nadie sabe quién es el Hijo, sino el Padre; y nadie sabe quién es el Padre, sino el Hijo y aquellos a quienes el Hijo quiera revelárselo.

23 Luego se volvió hacia sus discípulos y les dijo aparte:

— ¡Felices los que puedan ver todo lo que ustedes están viendo! 24 Les digo que muchos profetas y reyes quisieron ver lo que ustedes están viendo, y no lo vieron; y oír lo que ustedes están oyendo, y no lo oyeron.

El mandamiento más importante (Mt 22,35-39; Mc 12,28-31)

25 Por entonces, un doctor de la ley, queriendo poner a prueba a Jesús, le hizo esta pregunta:

— Maestro, ¿qué he de hacer para alcanzar la vida eterna?

26 Jesús le contestó:

— ¿Qué está escrito en la ley de Moisés? ¿Qué lees allí?

27 Él respondió:

Amarás al Señor tu Dios con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma, con todas tus fuerzas y con toda tu inteligencia; y a tu prójimo como a ti mismo.

28 Jesús le dijo:

— Has respondido correctamente. Haz eso y vivirás.

Parábola del buen samaritano

29 Pero el maestro de la ley, para justificar su pregunta, insistió:

— ¿Y quién es mi prójimo?

30 Jesús le dijo:

— Un hombre que bajaba de Jerusalén a Jericó fue asaltado por unos ladrones, que le robaron cuanto llevaba, lo hirieron gravemente y se fueron, dejándolo medio muerto. 31 Casualmente bajaba por aquel mismo camino un sacerdote que vio al herido, pero pasó de largo. 32 Y del mismo modo, un levita, al llegar a aquel lugar, vio al herido, pero también pasó de largo. 33 Finalmente, un samaritano que iba de camino llegó junto al herido y, al verlo, se sintió conmovido. 34 Se acercó a él, le vendó las heridas poniendo aceite y vino sobre ellas, lo montó en su propia cabalgadura, lo condujo a una posada próxima y cuidó de él. 35 Al día siguiente, antes de reanudar el viaje, el samaritano dio dos denarios al posadero y le dijo: “Cuida bien a este hombre. Si gastas más, te lo pagaré a mi vuelta”. 36 Pues bien, ¿cuál de estos tres hombres te parece que fue el prójimo del que cayó en manos de ladrones?

37 El maestro de la ley contestó:

— El que tuvo compasión de él.

Y Jesús le replicó:

— Pues vete y haz tú lo mismo.

Jesús visita a Marta y María

38 Mientras seguían el camino, Jesús entró en una aldea, donde una mujer llamada Marta le dio alojamiento. 39 Marta tenía una hermana llamada María, la cual, sentada a los pies del Señor, escuchaba sus palabras. 40 Marta, en cambio, andaba atareada con los quehaceres domésticos, por lo que se acercó a Jesús y le dijo:

— Señor, ¿te parece bien que mi hermana me deje sola con todo el trabajo de la casa? Por favor, dile que me ayude.

41 El Señor le contestó:

— Marta, Marta, andas angustiada y preocupada por muchas cosas. 42 Sin embargo, una sola es necesaria. María ha elegido la mejor parte y nadie se la arrebatará.

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.”

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.
