1 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 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 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. |
4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way. |
5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. |
6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again. |
7 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 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you: |
9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you. |
