Luke 10 — ASVBT
10Verse 1Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself was about to come.Verse 2Therefore said he unto them, The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest.Verse 3Go your ways; behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.Verse 4Carry no purse, no wallet, nor shoes; and salute no man on the way.Verse 5And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.Verse 6And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him: but if not, it shall turn to you again.Verse 7And in that same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.Verse 8And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:Verse 9and heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.Verse 10But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into the streets thereof and say,Verse 11Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to us, we wipe off against you: nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.Verse 12I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.Verse 13Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.Verse 14But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.Verse 15And thou, Capernaum, who art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down unto Hades.Verse 16He that heareth you heareth me; and he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth him that sent me.Verse 17And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name.Verse 18And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven.Verse 19Behold, I give you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.Verse 20Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.Verse 21In that same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.Verse 22And turning to the disciples, he said, All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, save the Father; and who the Father is, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal him.Verse 23And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:Verse 24for I say unto you, that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them not.Verse 25And behold, a certain lawyer stood up, making trial of him, and saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?Verse 26And he said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?Verse 27And he answered and 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 neighbor as thyself.Verse 28And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.Verse 29But he, desiring to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor?Verse 30And Jesus made answer and said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.Verse 31And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.Verse 32And in like manner a Levite also, when he was at the place, came and saw him, and passed by on the other side.Verse 33But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion,Verse 34and came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on them oil and wine; and he set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.Verse 35And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, I, when I come back again, will repay thee.Verse 36Which now of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbor unto him that fell among the robbers?Verse 37Then he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.Verse 38Now it came to pass, as they went on their way, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.Verse 39And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at the Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.Verse 40But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came up to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister did leave me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.Verse 41But Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things:Verse 42but one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
