LU-10:1  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.

LU-10:2  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.

LU-10:3  Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among

wolves.

LU-10:4  Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute

no man by the

way.

LU-10:5  And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace

[be] to this

house.

LU-10:6  And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest

upon it: if

not, it shall turn to you again.

LU-10:7  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.

LU-10:8  And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you,

 eat such

things as are set before you:

LU-10:9  And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them,

The kingdom of

God is come nigh unto you.

LU-10:10  But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive

you not, go your

ways out into the streets of the same, and say,

LU-10:11  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.

LU-10:12  But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in

that day for

Sodom, than for that city.

LU-10:13  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.

LU-10:14  But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at

the judgment,

than for you.

LU-10:15  And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven,

shalt be thrust

down to hell.

LU-10:16  He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth

you despiseth

me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.

LU-10:17  And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord,

even the

devils are subject unto us through thy name.

LU-10:18  And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning

fall from heaven.

LU-10:19  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.

LU-10:20  Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits

are subject

unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in

heaven.

LU-10:21  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.

LU-10:22  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].

LU-10:23  And he turned him unto [his] disciples, and said

privately, Blessed

[are] the eyes which see the things that ye see:

LU-10:24  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].

LU-10:25  And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted

him, saying,

Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

LU-10:26  He said unto him, What is written in the law? how

readest thou?

LU-10:27  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.

LU-10:28  And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this

do, and thou

shalt live.

LU-10:29  But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus,

And who is my

neighbour?

LU-10:30  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.

LU-10:31  And by chance there came down a certain priest that

way: and when he

saw him, he passed by on the other side.

LU-10:32  And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came

and looked [on

him], and passed by on the other side.

LU-10:33  But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where

he was: and when

he saw him, he had compassion [on him],

LU-10:34  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.

LU-10:35  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.

LU-10:36  Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour

unto him that

fell among the thieves?

LU-10:37  And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said

Jesus unto him,

Go, and do thou likewise.

LU-10:38  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.

LU-10:39  And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at

Jesus' feet, and

heard his word.

LU-10:40  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.

LU-10:41  And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha,

thou art

careful and troubled about many things:

LU-10:42  But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that

good part, which

shall not be taken away from her.
