Luke 10:1-16

LEB(i) 1 And after these things, the Lord also* appointed seventy-two others and sent them out two by two before him* into every town and place where he was about to go. 2 And he said to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest that he send out workers into his harvest. 3 Go! Behold, I am sending you out like lambs in the midst of wolves! 4 Do not carry a money bag or a traveler's bag or sandals, and greet no one along the road. 5 And into whatever house you enter, first say, "Peace be to this household!" 6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him. But if not, it will return to you. 7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking whatever they provide,* for the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not move from house to house. 8 And into whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat whatever is* set before you, 9 and heal the sick in it, and say to them, "The kingdom of God has come near to you." 10 But into whatever town you enter and they do not welcome you, go out into its streets and* say, 11 "Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you! Nevertheless know this: that the kingdom of God has come near!"* 12 I tell you that it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town! 13 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes! 14 But it will be more bearable for Tyre and for Sidon in the judgment than for you! 15 And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No! You will be brought down to Hades! 16 The one who listens to you listens to me, and the one who rejects you rejects me. But the one who rejects me rejects the one who sent me."
