LUKE ยท Chapter 10
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, where he himself
would come.
10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the
labourers are few: pray all of you therefore the Lord of the harvest, that
he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
10:4 Carry neither purse, nor pouch, nor shoes: and salute no man by
the way.
10:5 And into whatsoever house all of you enter, first say, Peace be
to this house.
10:6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it:
if not, it shall turn to you again.
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.
10:8 And into whatsoever city all of you enter, and they receive you,
eat such things as are set before you:
10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom
of God has come nigh unto you.
10:10 But into whatsoever city all of you enter, and they receive you
not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
10:11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaves on us, we do wipe
off against you: notwithstanding be all of you sure of this, that the kingdom
of God has come nigh unto you.
10:12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day
for Sodom, than for that city.
10:13 Woe unto you, Chorazin! woe unto 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.
10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment,
than for you.
10:15 And you, Capernaum, which are exalted to heaven, shall be thrust
down to hell.
10:16 He that hears you hears me; and he that despises you despises
me; and he that despises me despises him that sent me.
10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the
devils are subject unto us through your name.
10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from
heaven.
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.
10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits
are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written
in heaven.
10:21 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 unto babes: even
so, Father; for so it seemed good in your sight.
10:22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man 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.
10:23 And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed
are the eyes which see the things that all of you see:
10:24 For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to
see those things which all of you see, and have not seen them; and to hear
those things which all of you hear, and have not heard them.
10:25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying,
Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
10:26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how read you?
10:27 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.
10:28 And he said unto him, You have answered right: this do, and you
shall live.
10:29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who
is my neighbour?
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.
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.
10:32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked
on him, and passed by on the other side.
10:33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was:
and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,
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.
10:35 And on the next day when he departed, he took out two pence,
and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever
you spend more, when I come again, I will repay you.
10:36 Which now of these three, think you, was neighbour unto him that
fell among the thieves?
10:37 And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto
him, Go, and do you likewise.
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.
10:39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet,
and heard his word.
10:40 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.
10:41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, you are
careful and troubled about many things:
10:42 But one thing is necessary: and Mary has chosen that good part,
which shall not be taken away from her.
