Luke 10:17–24
17 The seventy-twoF,av returned with joy, saying,aw “Lord, even the demonsax submit to us in your name.”ay
18 He said to them, “I watched Satanaz fall from heaven like lightning.ba 19 Look, I have given you the authoritybb to tramplebc on snakesbd and scorpionsbe and over all the power of the enemy;bf nothing at all will harm you.bg 20 However, don’t rejoice thatG the spiritsbh submit to you,bi but rejoice that your names are writtenbj in heaven.”
21 At that timea heA rejoiced in the HolyB Spiritb and said, “I praiseC you, Father,c Lord of heaven and earth,d because you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligente and revealed them to infants.f Yes, Father, because this was your good pleasure.D,g 22 All things haveE been entrusted to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son desiresF to reveal him.”h
23 Then turning to his disciples he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see the things you see! 24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things you see but didn’t see them; to hear the things you hear but didn’t hear them.”i
