Luke 10:13-24

New King James Version

Woe to the Impenitent Cities^(A)

^13 (B)“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! ^(C)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 (D)And you, Capernaum, ^[a]who are ^(E)exalted to heaven, ^(F)will be brought down to Hades. ^16 (G)He who hears you hears Me, ^(H)he who rejects you rejects Me, and ^(I)he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me.”

The Seventy Return with Joy

¹⁷ Then ^(J)the ^[b]seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”

¹⁸ And He said to them, ^(K)“I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. ¹⁹ Behold, ^(L)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 ^[c]rather rejoice because ^(M)your names are written in heaven.”

Jesus Rejoices in the Spirit^(N)

^21 (O)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 (P)All^[d] things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and ^(Q)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, ^(R)“Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see; ²⁴ for I tell you ^(S)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.”
