The Return of the Seventy-Two

¹⁷^(A)The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, ^(B)even the demons are subject to us in your name!” ¹⁸And he said to them, ^(C)“I saw Satan ^(D)fall like lightning from heaven. ¹⁹Behold, I have given you authority ^(E)to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of ^(F)the enemy, and ^(G)nothing shall hurt you. ²⁰^(H)Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that ^(I)your names are written in heaven.”
