Luke 10:9-32

⁹And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them: The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

¹⁰But into whatsoever city you enter, and they receive you not, going forth into the streets thereof, say:

¹¹Even the very dust of your city that cleaveth to us, we wipe off against you. Yet know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand.

¹²I say to you, it shall be more tolerable at that day for Sodom, than for that city.

¹³Woe to thee, Corozain, woe to thee, Bethsaida. For if in Tyre and Sidon had been wrought the mighty works that have been wrought in you, they would have done penance long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

¹⁴But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgement, than for you.

¹⁵And thou, Capharnaum, which art exalted unto heaven, thou shalt be thrust down to hell.

¹⁶He that heareth you, heareth me; and he that despiseth you, despiseth me; and he that despiseth me, despiseth him that sent me.

¹⁷And the seventy-two returned with joy, saying: Lord, the devils also are subject to us in thy name.

¹⁸And he said to them: I saw Satan like lightening falling from heaven.

¹⁹Behold, I have given you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall hurt you.

²⁰But yet rejoice not in this, that spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice in this, that your names are written in heaven.

²¹In that same hour, he rejoiced in the Holy Ghost, and said: I confess to thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to little ones. Yea, Father, for so it hath seemed good in thy sight.

²²All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and to whom the Son will reveal him.

²³And turning to his disciples, he said: Blessed are the eyes that see the things which you see.

²⁴For I say to you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things that you see, and have not seen them; and to hear the things that you hear, and have not heard them.

²⁵And behold a certain lawyer stood up, tempting him, and saying, Master, what must I do to possess eternal life?

²⁶But he said to him: What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷He answering, said: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind: and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸And he said to him: Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁹But he willing to justify himself, said to Jesus: And who is my neighbour?

³⁰And Jesus answering, said: A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, who also stripped him, and having wounded him went away, leaving him half dead.

³¹And it chanced, that a certain priest went down the same way: and seeing him, passed by.

³²In like manner also a Levite, when he was near the place and saw him, passed by.
