The Joyful Results
17 Now the [a]seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even (A)the demons are subject to us [b]in Your name!” 18 And He said to them, “I watched (B)Satan fall from heaven like lightning. 19 Behold, I have given you authority to (C)walk on snakes and scorpions, and authority over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you. 20 Nevertheless, do not [c]rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that (D)your names are recorded in heaven.”

The Return of the Seventy
17 The 70[a] disciples[b] came back and joyously reported, “Lord, even the demons are submitting to us in your name!”
18 He told them, “I watched Satan falling from heaven like lightning. 19 Look! I have given you the authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to destroy[c] all the enemy’s power, and nothing will ever hurt you. 20 However, stop rejoicing because the spirits are submitting to you. Instead, rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”
