Luke 10:1-12

Tree of Life Version

Yeshua Sends Out the Seventy

10 Now after these things, the Lord assigned seventy^[a] others and sent them out by twos before Him into every town and place where He Himself was about to go. ² And He was telling them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore, beg the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.

³ “Go forth! Look, I am sending you as lambs in the midst of wolves. ⁴ Do not be burdened with a money belt, travel bag, or shoes; and do not greet anyone along the way. ⁵ Whatever home you enter, first say, “Shalom be on this home.” ⁶ If a son of shalom is there, your shalom will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. ⁷ And remain in this same home, eating and drinking the things they offer, for the worker is deserving of his wage. Do not keep moving from house to house.

⁸ “Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what they set before you. ⁹ Then heal the sick in that town, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ ¹⁰ But if you enter a town and they do not welcome you, then go out into its streets and say, ¹¹ ‘Even the dust of your town sticking to our feet, we wipe off as a witness to you. But know this! The kingdom of God has come near.’ ¹² I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom^[b] on that day than for that town.
