¹Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place where he himself was about to come. ²And he said to them, The harvest indeed is great, but the workmen few; supplicate therefore the Lord of the harvest that he may send out workmen into his harvest. ³Go: behold I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves. ⁴Carry neither purse nor scrip nor sandals, and salute no one on the way. ⁵And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace to this house. ⁶And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; but if not it shall turn to you again. ⁷And in the same house abide, eating and drinking such things as they have; for the workman is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house. ⁸And into whatsoever city ye may enter and they receive you, eat what is set before you, ⁹and heal the sick in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God is come nigh to you. ¹⁰But into whatsoever city ye may have entered and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, ¹¹Even the dust of your city, which cleaves to us on the feet, do we shake off against you; but know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh.
