Luke 10:1-16

Noyes(i) 1 After these things, the Lord appointed also seventy others, and sent them two and two before him into every city and place where he himself was about to come. 2 And he said to them, The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest. 3 Go forth; lo! I send you as lambs into the midst of wolves. 4 Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; salute no one by the way. 5 And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. 6 And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; if not, it shall return to you. 7 And abide in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house. 8 And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat what is set before you, 9 and heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The kingdom of God hath come near to you. 10 But into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into its streets and say, 11 Even the dust of your city that cleaveth to our feet we wipe off to you; but know this, that the kingdom of God hath come near. 12 And I tell you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city. 13 Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you. 15 And thou, Capernaum! shalt thou be exalted to heaven? thou shalt be brought down to the underworld. 16 He that hearkeneth to you, hearkeneth to me; and he that rejecteth you, rejecteth me; but he that rejecteth me, rejecteth him that sent me.
