* Now after these things the Lord also appointed seventy other men , and sent them by twos before his face into every city and place where he himself was going to come . * Therefore he said to them , The harvest indeed is plentiful , but the workmen are few . Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest , that he would send forth workmen into his harvest . * Go ye . Behold , I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves . * Carry no bag , no pouch , no shoes , and greet no man on the way . * And into whatever house ye enter , first say , Peace to this house . * And if a son of peace is there , your peace will rest upon him , and if not , it will return to you . * And remain in the same house eating and drinking from their things , for the workman is worthy of his wage . Do not depart from house to house . * And into whatever city ye enter , and they receive you , eat the things that are set before you . * And heal the weak in it , and say to them , The kingdom of God has come near to you . * But into whatever city ye enter , and they will not receive you , after departing into the thoroughfares if it , say , * Even the dust that clings on us from your city , we wipe off against you . Nevertheless know ye this , that the kingdom of God has come near to you . * I say to you , that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom , than for that city . * Woe to thee , Chorazin ! Woe to thee , Bethsaida ! Because if the mighty works were done in Tyre and Sidon , which were done in you , they would have repented long ago , sitting in sackcloth and ashes . * But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment , than for you . * And thou , Capernaum , which was exalted to the sky , will be thrust down to Hades . * He who hears you hears me , and he who rejects you rejects me , and he who rejects me rejects him who sent me . * And the seventy returned with joy , saying , Lord , even the demons are made subject to us in thy name . * And he said to them , I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from the sky . * Behold , I give you authority to tread over serpents and scorpions , and over all the power of the enemy , and , no , nothing will harm you . * Nevertheless do not rejoice in this , that the spirits are made subject to you , but rejoice because your names are written in the heavens . * In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit , and said , I thank thee , Father , Lord of the heaven and the earth , that thou hid these things from the wise and astute , and revealed them to the childlike . Yea , Father , because it becam * And having turned to the disciples , he said , All things were delivered to me by my Father . And no man knows who the Son is , except the Father , and who the Father is , except the Son , and he to whomever the Son wants to reveal him . * And having turning toward the disciples in private , he said , Blessed are the eyes that see what ye see . * For I say to you , that many prophets and kings desired to see what ye see , and did not see , and to hear what ye hear , and did not hear . * And behold , a certain lawyer stood up testing him , and saying , Teacher , having done what , would I inherit eternal life ? * And he said to him , What is written in the law ? How read thou ? * And having answered , he said , Thou shall love Lord thy God from thy whole heart , and from thy whole soul , and from thy whole strength , and from thy whole mind , and thy neighbor as thyself . * And he said to him , Thou answered correctly . Do this and thou will live . * But he , wanting to justify himself , said to Jesus , And who is my neighbor ? * And having replied , Jesus said , A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho . And he encountered bandits , who also , having stripped him and having beat him , departed having left him being half dead . * And by coincidence a certain priest was going down on that road , and when he saw him , he passed by on the other side . * And likewise also a Levite who happened upon the place , having come , and having looked , passed by on the other side . * But a certain Samaritan , as he journeyed , came to him , and when he saw him , felt compassion . * And having come , he wrapped up his wounds , pouring on olive oil and wine . And having set him on his own beast , he brought him to an inn , and took care of him . * And on the morrow when departing , after taking out two denarii , he gave them to the innkeeper , and said to him , Take care of him , and whatever thou might spend more , I will repay thee at my return . * Which therefore , of these three , appears to thee to have become neighbor to the man who fell among the bandits ? * And he said , He who did mercy with him . Therefore Jesus said to him , Go , and do thou likewise . * And it came to pass as they went , he also entered into a certain village , and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house . * And she was sister to this woman called Mary , who also , having sat at Jesus ' feet , was listening to his word . * But Martha was encumbered about much serving . And having stood near , she said , Lord , do thou not care that my sister left me behind to serve alone ? Speak to her therefore that she may help me . * But having answered , Jesus said to her , Martha , Martha , thou are anxious and troubled about many things , * but one thing is necessary , and Mary has chosen the good part , which will not be taken away from her .
