Luke:10:1 @
Now after these things ,
the Lord made selection of seventy others and sent them before him ,
two together ,
into every town and place where he himself was about to come .
bbe @
Luke:10:2 @
And he said to them ,
There is much grain ready to be cut ,
but not enough workers :
so make prayer to the Lord of the grain-fields that he will send workers to get in the grain .
bbe @
Luke:10:3 @
Go on your way :
see ,
I send you out like lambs among wolves .
bbe @
Luke:10:4 @
Take no bag for money or for food ,
and no shoes ;
say no word to any man on the way .
bbe @
Luke:10:5 @
And whenever you go into a house ,
first say ,
Peace be to this house .
bbe @
Luke:10:6 @
And if a son of peace is there ,
your peace will be with him :
but if not ,
it will come back to you again .
bbe @
Luke:10:7 @
And keep in that same house ,
taking what food and drink they give you :
for the worker has a right to his reward .
Do not go from house to house .
bbe @
Luke:10:8 @
And into whatever town you go ,
if they take you in ,
take whatever food is given to you :
bbe @
Luke:10:9 @
And make well those in it who are ill and say to them ,
The kingdom of God is near to you
bbe @
Luke:10:10 @
But if you go into a town where they will not have you ,
go out into the streets of it and say ,
bbe @
Luke:10:11 @
Even the dust of your town ,
which is on our feet ,
we put off as a witness against you ;
but be certain of this ,
that the kingdom of God is near .
bbe @
Luke:10:12 @
I say to you ,
It will be better in that day for Sodom than for that town .
bbe @
Luke:10:13 @
A curse is on you ,
Chorazin !
A curse is on you ,
Beth-saida !
For if such works of power had been done in Tyre and Sidon as have been done in you ,
they would have been turned from their sins ,
in days gone by ,
seated in the dust .
bbe @
Luke:10:14 @
But it will be better for Tyre and Sidon ,
in the day of judging ,
than for you .
bbe @
Luke:10:15 @
And you ,
Capernaum ,
were you not lifted up to heaven ?
you will go down to hell .
bbe @
Luke:10:16 @
Whoever gives ear to you ,
gives ear to me ;
and whoever is against you ,
is against me ;
and whoever is against me ,
is against him who sent me .
bbe @
Luke:10:17 @
And the seventy came back with joy ,
saying ,
Lord ,
even the evil spirits are under our power in your name .
bbe @
Luke:10:18 @
And he said ,
I was watching for Satan ,
falling from heaven like a star .
bbe @
Luke:10:19 @
See ,
I have given you power to put your feet on snakes and evil beasts ,
and over all the strength of him who is against you :
and nothing will do you damage .
bbe @
Luke:10:20 @
Do not be glad ,
however ,
because you have power over spirits ,
but because your names are recorded in heaven .
bbe @
Luke:10:21 @
In that same hour he was full of joy in the Holy Spirit and said ,
I give praise to you ,
O Father ,
Lord of heaven and earth ,
because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning ,
and have made them clear to little children :
for so ,
O Father ,
it was pleasing in your eyes .
bbe @
Luke:10:22 @
All things have been given to me by my Father :
and no one has knowledge of the Son ,
but only the Father :
and of the Father ,
but only the Son ,
and he to whom the Son will make it clear .
bbe @
Luke:10:23 @
And ,
turning to the disciples ,
he said privately ,
Happy are the eyes which see the things you see :
bbe @
Luke:10:24 @
For I say to you that numbers of prophets and kings have had a desire to see the things which you see ,
and have not seen them ,
and to have knowledge of the things which have come to your ears ,
and they had it not .
