Lucas 10
Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
A missão dos setenta e dois discípulos
10 Depois disto, o Senhor escolheu outros setenta e dois[a] homens e os mandou ir, dois em dois a sua frente, para todas as cidades e lugares aonde ele mesmo pretendia ir. 2 E disse a eles:
—A colheita é grande, mas os trabalhadores são poucos. Portanto, orem ao Senhor da colheita para que ele mande trabalhadores para a sua colheita. 3 Vão e lembrem-se: Eu estou mandando vocês como cordeiros para o meio de lobos. 4 Não levem nem bolsa, nem sacola, nem sandálias extras e nem parem no caminho para cumprimentar ninguém. 5 Em qualquer casa que vocês entrarem, a primeira coisa que devem dizer é: “Que a paz esteja nesta casa!” 6 Se ali morar um homem de paz, a paz de vocês ficará com ele. Mas se aquele que morar ali não for um homem de paz, ela voltará para vocês. 7 Permaneçam naquela casa e comam e bebam o que derem a vocês, pois todo trabalhador merece o seu salário. Não fiquem andando de casa em casa. 8 E em qualquer cidade a que vocês chegarem e forem bem recebidos, comam o que as pessoas derem a vocês. 9 Curem os doentes daquela cidade e digam-lhes: “O reino de Deus está próximo de vocês”. 10 Mas, em qualquer cidade a que vocês chegarem e não forem bem recebidos, vão para as ruas e digam: 11 “Até o pó desta cidade que grudou em nossos pés, nós sacudimos contra vocês! Mas saibam disto: O reino de Deus está próximo”.
12 —E eu lhes digo uma coisa: Naquele dia haverá mais tolerância para com as pessoas de Sodoma do que para com as daquela cidade.
Um alerta para aqueles que rejeitam Jesus
(Mt 11.20-24)
13 —Ai de você, cidade de Corazim! Ai de você, cidade de Betsaida! Porque se os milagres que foram feitos aí tivessem sido feitos em Tiro e Sidom, há muito tempo que esses povos já teriam decidido mudar a sua forma de pensar e de viver. E para mostrar que tinham decidido mudar a sua forma de pensar e de viver, ficariam sentados, vestidos com roupa de luto e cobertos com cinzas. 14 Por isso, no julgamento, haverá mais tolerância para com as cidades de Tiro e Sidom do que para com vocês. 15 E você, cidade de Cafarnaum? Pensa que será elevada até o céu? Você será jogada no lugar dos mortos! 16 Quem ouve a vocês, ouve a mim. Quem rejeita a vocês, rejeita a mim. E quem me rejeita, rejeita aquele que me enviou.
A volta dos setenta e dois
17 Os setenta e dois voltaram alegres e disseram:
—Senhor, até mesmo os demônios têm se sujeitado a nós em seu nome!
18 Ele lhes disse:
—Vi Satanás cair do céu como um raio! 19 Escutem: Eu dei a vocês autoridade para pisarem cobras e escorpiões. Dei também autoridade a vocês sobre todo o poder do inimigo. Nada lhes fará mal. 20 Mas não se alegrem com o fato de que os espíritos têm se sujeitado a vocês. Alegrem-se com o fato de que os nomes de vocês estão escritos no céu.
Jesus louva o Pai
(Mt 11.25-27; 13.16-17)
21 Naquele momento, pelo poder do Espírito Santo, Jesus ficou muito alegre e disse:
—Pai! Senhor do céu e da terra! Eu lhe agradeço por ter escondido estas coisas dos sábios e dos entendidos e por tê-las mostrado aos que são simples. Sim, Pai, pois esta era a sua vontade. 22 Todas as coisas foram dadas a mim pelo meu Pai. Ninguém conhece o Filho a não ser o Pai e ninguém conhece o Pai a não ser o Filho e aqueles a quem o Filho o quiser revelar.
23 Então Jesus virou-se para os discípulos e lhes disse em particular:
—Felizes são os olhos que veem aquilo que vocês veem! 24 Eu digo que muitos profetas e reis desejaram ver as coisas que vocês veem, mas não viram. Eles desejaram ouvir as coisas que vocês ouvem, mas não ouviram.
A parábola sobre o samaritano que socorreu o seu inimigo
25 Numa ocasião, um mestre da lei se levantou e tentou colocar Jesus à prova, dizendo:
—Mestre, o que devo fazer para conseguir a vida eterna?
26 Jesus lhe disse:
—O que está escrito na lei? Como você interpreta o que está escrito nela?
27 Ele respondeu:
—“Ame ao Senhor seu Deus de todo o seu coração, de toda a sua alma, de toda a sua força[b] e de todo o seu entendimento”(A). E também: “Ame o seu próximo assim como você ama a você mesmo”(B).
28 Jesus então lhe disse:
—Você respondeu corretamente. Faça isso e viverá.
29 Mas, querendo se justificar, ele disse a Jesus:
—E quem é o meu próximo?
30 Jesus respondeu:
—Certo homem ia de Jerusalém para Jericó quando foi assaltado por ladrões. Eles lhe tiraram a roupa, bateram nele e depois foram embora deixando o homem quase morto. 31 Por acaso um sacerdote estava passando por aquele caminho e, quando viu o homem, atravessou para o outro lado da estrada. 32 Da mesma forma, um levita também passou por ali e, quando o viu, também atravessou para o outro lado da estrada. 33 Um samaritano[c], porém, que também estava viajando por aquele mesmo caminho, teve pena do homem quando o viu. 34 Chegou perto dele e fez curativos em suas feridas, colocando azeite e vinho[d] nelas. Depois disso, colocou o homem em seu jumento e o levou a uma hospedaria e cuidou dele. 35 No dia seguinte, o samaritano deu duas moedas de prata ao dono da hospedaria e lhe disse: “Tome conta dele. Se por acaso gastar mais do que isto, pagarei o restante quando voltar”.
36 —Quem destes três você acha que foi o próximo do homem assaltado pelos ladrões?
37 O mestre da lei então respondeu:
—Aquele que socorreu o homem.
Jesus lhe disse:
—Vá e faça a mesma coisa.
Marta e Maria
38 Jesus e os seus discípulos continuaram seu caminho até chegarem a certa vila, onde foram recebidos por uma mulher chamada Marta. 39 Marta tinha uma irmã chamada Maria. Maria se sentou aos pés de Jesus para ouvir o que ele dizia, 40 enquanto Marta estava ocupada com o serviço da casa. Marta, então, chegou perto de Jesus e lhe disse:
—O senhor não se importa que a minha irmã me deixe trabalhando sozinha? Diga-lhe para vir me ajudar!
41 O Senhor lhe respondeu:
—Marta, Marta! Você se preocupa e se incomoda com muitas coisas! 42 Somente uma coisa é necessária! Eu digo isto porque Maria escolheu a melhor parte por si mesma e isso não lhe será tirado.

New King James Version
The Seventy Sent Out
10 After these things the Lord appointed [a]seventy others also, and (A)sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. 2 Then He said to them, (B)“The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore (C)pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. 3 Go your way; (D)behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves. 4 (E)Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and (F)greet no one along the road. 5 (G)But whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ 6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you. 7 (H)And remain in the same house, (I)eating and drinking such things as they give, for (J)the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house. 8 Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you. 9 (K)And heal the sick there, and say to them, (L)‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ 10 But whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, 11 (M)‘The very dust of your city which clings to [b]us we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.’ 12 [c]But I say to you that (N)it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that city.
Woe to the Impenitent Cities(O)
13 (P)“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! (Q)For if the mighty works which 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 tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you. 15 (R)And you, Capernaum, [d]who are (S)exalted to heaven, (T)will be brought down to Hades. 16 (U)He who hears you hears Me, (V)he who rejects you rejects Me, and (W)he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me.”
The Seventy Return with Joy
17 Then (X)the [e]seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”
18 And He said to them, (Y)“I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, (Z)I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but [f]rather rejoice because (AA)your names are written in heaven.”
Jesus Rejoices in the Spirit(AB)
21 (AC)In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 22 (AD)All[g] things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and (AE)no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.”
23 Then He turned to His disciples and said privately, (AF)“Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see; 24 for I tell you (AG)that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it.”
The Parable of the Good Samaritan(AH)
25 And behold, a certain [h]lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, (AI)“Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?”
27 So he answered and said, (AJ)“ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and (AK)‘your neighbor as yourself.’ ”
28 And He said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and (AL)you will live.”
29 But he, wanting to (AM)justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among [i]thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, (AN)he passed by on the other side. 32 Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain (AO)Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had (AP)compassion. 34 So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; and he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 On the next day, [j]when he departed, he took out two (AQ)denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.’ 36 So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?”
37 And he said, “He who showed mercy on him.”
Then Jesus said to him, (AR)“Go and do likewise.”
Mary and Martha Worship and Serve
38 Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named (AS)Martha welcomed Him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called Mary, (AT)who also (AU)sat at [k]Jesus’ feet and heard His word. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.”
41 And [l]Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. 42 But (AV)one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.”

Jesus Sends Out the Seventy-Two
10 After this the Lord appointed (A)seventy-two[a] others and (B)sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go. 2 (C)And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. (D)Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest. 3 Go your way; (E)behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. 4 (F)Carry no moneybag, no knapsack, no sandals, and (G)greet no one on the road. 5 Whatever house you enter, first say, (H)‘Peace be to this house!’ 6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, (I)it will return to you. 7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for (J)the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house. 8 Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you. 9 Heal the sick in it and say to them, (K)‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ 10 But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go into its streets and say, 11 (L)‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that (M)the kingdom of God has come near.’ 12 I tell you, (N)it will be more bearable on (O)that day for Sodom than for that town.
Woe to Unrepentant Cities
13 (P)“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in (Q)Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 (R)But it will be more bearable in the judgment for (S)Tyre and Sidon than for you. 15 And you, Capernaum, (T)will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to (U)Hades.
16 (V)“The one who hears you hears me, and (W)the one who rejects you rejects me, and (X)the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
The Return of the Seventy-Two
17 (Y)The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, (Z)even the demons are subject to us in your name!” 18 And he said to them, (AA)“I saw Satan (AB)fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I have given you authority (AC)to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of (AD)the enemy, and (AE)nothing shall hurt you. 20 (AF)Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that (AG)your names are written in heaven.”
Jesus Rejoices in the Father's Will
21 (AH)In that same hour (AI)he rejoiced (AJ)in the Holy Spirit and said, “I thank you, Father, (AK)Lord of heaven and earth, that (AL)you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and (AM)revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for (AN)such was your gracious will.[b] 22 (AO)All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is (AP)except the Father, or who the Father is (AQ)except the Son and anyone (AR)to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”
23 Then turning to the disciples he said privately, (AS)“Blessed are the eyes that see what you see! 24 For I tell you (AT)that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.”
The Parable of the Good Samaritan
25 (AU)And behold, a (AV)lawyer stood up to (AW)put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to (AX)inherit eternal life?” 26 He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” 27 And he answered, (AY)“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and (AZ)your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; (BA)do this, and you will live.”
29 But he, (BB)desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 Jesus replied, “A man (BC)was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a (BD)priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. 32 So likewise (BE)a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a (BF)Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion. 34 He went to him and (BG)bound up his wounds, pouring on (BH)oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 And the next day he took out two (BI)denarii[c] and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him, and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.’ 36 Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” 37 He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.”
Martha and Mary
38 Now as they went on their way, Jesus[d] entered a village. And a woman named (BJ)Martha (BK)welcomed him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called (BL)Mary, who (BM)sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are (BN)anxious and troubled about many things, 42 but one thing is necessary.[e] Mary has chosen (BO)the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.”
