Luke 10

¹After these things, the Lord appointed also seventy others, and sent them two and two before him into every city and place where he himself was about to come.

²And he said to them, The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest.

³Go forth; lo! I send you as lambs into the midst of wolves.

⁴Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; salute no one by the way.

⁵And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

⁶And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; if not, it shall return to you.

⁷And abide in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.

⁸And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat what is set before you,

⁹and heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The kingdom of God hath come near to you.

¹⁰But into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into its streets and say,

¹¹Even the dust of your city that cleaveth to our feet we wipe off to you; but know this, that the kingdom of God hath come near.

¹²And I tell you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.

¹³Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

¹⁴But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.

¹⁵And thou, Capernaum! shalt thou be exalted to heaven? thou shalt be brought down to the underworld.

¹⁶He that hearkeneth to you, hearkeneth to me; and he that rejecteth you, rejecteth me; but he that rejecteth me, rejecteth him that sent me.

¹⁷And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in thy name.

¹⁸And he said to them, I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning.

¹⁹Lo! I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the might of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

²⁰Yet rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names have been written in heaven.

²¹In that hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, thou didst reveal them to babes. Yea, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. And turning to the disciples he said,

²²All things were delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom it is the will of the Son to reveal him.

²³And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye are seeing.

²⁴For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye are seeing, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye are hearing, and heard them not.

²⁵And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life?

²⁶And he said to him, What is written in the Law? How readest thou?

²⁷And 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 neighbor as thyself."

²⁸And he said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this, and thou shalt live.

²⁹But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

³⁰Jesus answering said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers; who after stripping him of his raiment, and wounding him, departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹And by chance a certain priest was going down on that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³²And in like manner also a Levite, having arrived at the place, came and saw, and passed by on the other side.

³³But a certain Samaritan, as he was journeying, came where he was, and when he saw him, had compassion,

³⁴and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and setting him on his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵And the next day, he took out two denaries and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatever thou spendest more, I, when I come back, will repay thee.

³⁶Which of these three, dost thou think, was neighbor to him that fell among the robbers?

³⁷And he said, He that took pity on him. Then said Jesus to him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸And it came to pass, as they journeyed, that he entered into a certain village; and a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her house.

³⁹And she had a sister called Mary, who sat down at the feet of the Lord, and listened to his word.

⁴⁰But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Tell her therefore to help me.

⁴¹But the Lord answering said to her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things.

⁴²But one thing is needful. For Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

Luke 10

¹After 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.

²Therefore 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.

³Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

⁴Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.

⁵And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

⁶And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.

⁷And 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.

⁸And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:

⁹And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

¹⁰But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,

¹¹Even 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.

¹²But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.

¹³Woe 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.

¹⁴But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.

¹⁵And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.

¹⁶He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.

¹⁷And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.

¹⁸And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

¹⁹Behold, 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.

²⁰Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

²¹In 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.

²²All 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.

²³And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

²⁴For 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.

²⁵And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁶He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷And 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.

²⁸And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

³⁰And 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.

³¹And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³²And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

³³But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

³⁴And 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.

³⁵And 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.

³⁶Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

³⁷And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁸Now 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.

³⁹And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.

⁴⁰But 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.

⁴¹And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:

⁴²But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
