主差遣七十二人
这些事以后，主另外指定七十二个人☛有古卷是“七十个人”；17节同。，差遣他们两个两个地在他前面，往自己所要到的各城各地去。
After these things the LORD appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.
2他对他们说：“要收的庄稼多，做工的人少。所以，你们要求庄稼的主差遣做工的人出去收他的庄稼。Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
3你们去吧！看！我差你们出去，如同羔羊进入狼群。Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
4不要带钱囊，不要带行囊，不要带鞋子；在路上也不要向人问安。Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
5无论进哪一家，先要说：‘愿这一家平安。’And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
6那里若有当得平安的人，你们所求的平安就必临到那家，不然，将归还你们。And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
7你们要住在那家，吃喝他们所供给的，因为工人得工钱是应当的；不要从这家搬到那家。And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8无论进哪一城，人若接待你们，给你们摆上什么食物，你们就吃什么。And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:
9要医治那城里的病人，对他们说：‘神的国临近你们了。’And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10无论进哪一城，人若不接待你们，你们就到大街上去，说：But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
11‘就是你们城里的尘土粘在我们的脚上，我们也当着你们擦去。但是，你们该知道神的国临近了。’Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
12我告诉你们，在那日子，所多玛所受的，比那城还容易受呢！”耶稣责备不悔改的城
（太11．20－24）
But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
13“哥拉汛哪，你有祸了！伯赛大啊，你有祸了！因为在你们中间所行的异能，若行在推罗、西顿，他们早已披麻蒙灰，坐在地上悔改了。Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14在审判的时候，推罗和西顿所受的，比你们还容易受呢！But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
15迦百农啊， 你以为要被举到天上吗？ 你要被推下阴间！”And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
16耶稣又对门徒说：“听从你们的就是听从我；弃绝你们的就是弃绝我；弃绝我的就是弃绝差遣我来的那位。”七十二人回来
He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
17那七十二个人欢欢喜喜地回来，说：“主啊，因你的名，就是鬼也服了我们。”And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18耶稣对他们说：“我看见撒但从天上坠落，像闪电一样。And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19我已经给你们权柄可以践踏蛇和蝎子，又胜过仇敌一切的能力，绝没有什么能害你们。Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20然而，不要因灵服了你们就欢喜，而要因你们的名记录在天上欢喜。”耶稣的欢乐
（太11．25－27；13．16－17）
Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21正当那时，耶稣被圣灵感动而欢喜快乐，说：“父啊，天地的主，我感谢你！因为你把这些事向聪明智慧的人隐藏起来，而向婴孩启示出来。父啊，是的，因为你的美意本是如此。In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
22一切都是我父交给我的。除了父，没有人知道子是谁；除了子和子所愿意启示的人，没有人知道父是谁。”All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
23耶稣转身私下对门徒说：“看见你们所看见的，那眼睛有福了。And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:
24我告诉你们，从前有许多先知和君王要看你们所看的，却没有看见，要听你们所听的，却没有听见。”好撒玛利亚人
For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
25有一个律法师起来试探耶稣，说：“老师！我该做什么才可以承受永生？”And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
26耶稣对他说：“律法上写的是什么？你是怎样念的呢？”He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
27他回答说：“你要尽心、尽性、尽力、尽意爱主—你的神，又要爱邻☛“邻”也可译作“人”。如己。”And he answering 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 neighbour as thyself.
28耶稣对他说：“你回答得正确，你这样做就会得永生。”And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29那人要证明自己有理，就对耶稣说：“谁是我的邻舍呢？”But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
30耶稣回答：“有一个人从耶路撒冷下耶利哥去，落在强盗手中。他们剥去他的衣裳，把他打个半死，丢下他走了。And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31偶然有一个祭司从那条路下来，看见他就从另一边过去了。And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32又有一个利未人来到那里，看见他，也照样从另一边过去了。And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.
33可是，有一个撒玛利亚人路过那里，看见他就动了慈心，But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,
34上前用油和酒倒在他的伤处，包裹好了，扶他骑上自己的牲口，带他到旅店里去，照应他。And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35第二天，他拿出两个银币来，交给店主，说：‘请你照应他，额外的费用，我回来时会还你。’And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
36你想，这三个人哪一个是落在强盗手中那人的邻舍呢？”Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?
37他说：“是怜悯他的。”耶稣对他说：“你去，照样做吧！”耶稣探望马大和马利亚
And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38他们继续前行，耶稣进了一个村庄。有一个女人，名叫马大，接他到自己家里。Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39她有一个妹妹，名叫马利亚，在主的脚前坐着听他的道。And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
40马大伺候的事多，心里忙乱，进前来，说：“主啊，我的妹妹留下我一个人伺候，你不在意吗？请吩咐她来帮助我。”But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41主回答说：“马大，马大，你为许多的事操心烦恼，And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42但是不可少的只有一件☛“只有一件”：有古卷是“只有几件，或是一件”。。马利亚已经选择了那上好的福分，是没有人能从她夺去的。”But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
