Luke 10
Revised Geneva Translation
10 After these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others and sent them, two by two, before Him into every city and place where He Himself would come.
2 And He said to them, “The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the Harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.
3 “Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
4 “Carry no money bag, nor sack, nor shoes, and greet no one on the way.
5 “And into whatever house you enter, say first, ‘Peace to this house.’
6 “And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest upon him. If not, it shall return to you again.
7 “And remain in that same house, eating and drinking what they give. For the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
8 “But into whatever city you shall enter, if they receive you, eat what is set before you,
9 “and heal the sick who are there, and say to them, ‘The Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
10 “But in whatever city you enter, if they will not receive you, go out into the streets of that city, and say,
11 “‘Even the very dust of your city, which clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless, know this: that the Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
12 “For I say to you that it shall be easier on that Day for those of Sodom, than for that city.
13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 “Therefore it shall be easier for Tyre and Sidon at the Judgment than for you.
15 “And you, Capernaum, who is exalted to Heaven, shall be thrust down to Hades.
16 “The one who hears you, hears Me. And the one who despises you, despises Me. And the one who despises Me, despises Him Who sent Me.”
17 And the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us through Your Name!”
18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall down, like lightning, from Heaven.
19 “Behold, I give you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. And nothing shall hurt you.
20 “Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this: that the spirits obey you. But rather, rejoice because your names are written in Heaven.”
21 That same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit, and said, “I confess to You, Father, Lord of Heaven and Earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, because it so pleased You.
22 “All things are given to Me by My Father. And no one knows Who the Son is, except the Father; nor Who the Father is, except the Son and him to whom the Son wishes to reveal Him.”
23 And He turned to His disciples, and said secretly, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
24 “For I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which you see and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.”
25 Then behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tempted Him, saying, “Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 And He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?”
27 And he answered and said, “You shall love your Lord God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your thought, and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 Then He said to him, “You have answered right. Do this, and you shall live.”
29 But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, “Who, then, is my neighbor?”
30 And Jesus answered, and said, “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among thieves. And they robbed him of his clothes and wounded him and departed, leaving him half-dead.
31 “Now by chance, a certain priest came down that same way. And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 “And likewise, a Levite, when he had come near the place, went and looked, and passed by on the other side.
33 “Then a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came near him. And when he saw him, he had compassion on him.
34 “And he went to him and bound up his wounds and poured in oil and wine. And he put him on his own beast and brought him to an Inn and made provision for him.
35 “And the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. And whatever more you spend I will repay when I return.’
36 “Now, which of these three do you think was a neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?”
37 And he said, “The one who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go, and do likewise.”
38 Now it happened that as they went, He entered into a certain town. And a certain woman named Martha received Him into her house.
39 And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard His preaching.
40 But Martha was distracted by much serving. And she came to Him, and said, “Master, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore, command her to help me.”
41 And Jesus answered, and said to her, “Martha, Martha. You are anxious and troubled about many things.
42 “But one thing is needed, Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”
Luke 10
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.
