Luke Chapter 10|#11 After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, where he would come.#22 Replied he to them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: Pray you therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.#23 Go your ways: Behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.#24 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: And salute no one by the way.#25 And into whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this house.#26 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: If not, it shall turn to you again.#27 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: For the labourer is worthy of his wages. Go not from house to house.#28 And into whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:#29 And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The kingdom of God comes near to you.#210 But into whatever city you enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,#211 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaves on us, we do wipe off against you: Notwithstanding be you sure of this, that the kingdom of God comes near to you.#212 But I say to you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.|*213 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, 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.#214 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.#215 And you, Capernaum, which are exalted to heaven, shall be thrust down to hell.|*216 He that hears you hears me; and he that dispises you dispises me; and he that dispises me dispises him that sent me.|*217 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject to us through your name.#218 And he said to them, I saw Satan as lightning fall from heaven.#219 Behold, I give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: And nothing shall by any means hurt you.#220 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject to you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.|*221 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hid these things from the wise and prudent, and have revealed them to babes: Even so, Father; for so it seemed good in your sight.#222 All things are delivered to me of my Father: And no one knows who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.|*223 And he turned him to his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see:#224 For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which you see, and do not have seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and do not have heard them.|+#225 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?#226 He said to him, What is written in the law? How read you?#227 And he answering said, you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as yourself.#228 And he said to him, you have answered right: This do, and you shall live.|*229 But he, willing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?#230 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his garment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.#231 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.#232 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.#233 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: And when he saw him, he had compassion on him,#234 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.#235 And the next day when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said to him, Take care of him; and whatever you spend more, when I come again, I will repay you.#236 Which now of these three, think you, was neighbour to him that fell among the thieves?#237 And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus to him, Go, and do you likewise.|*238 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.#239 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.#240 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Bid her therefore that she help me.#241 And Jesus answered and said to her, Martha, Martha, you are careful and disturbed about many things:#242 But one thing is needful: And Mary has chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
