Luke 9:52–62

⁵²And he sent messengers before his face. And having gone they entered into a village of the Samaritans that they might make ready for him. ⁵³And they did not receive him, because his face was turned as going to Jerusalem. ⁵⁴And his disciples James and John seeing it said, Lord, wilt thou that we speak that fire come down from heaven and consume them, as also Elias did? ⁵⁵But turning he rebuked them and said, Ye know not of what spirit ye are. ⁵⁶And they went to another village.

⁵⁷And it came to pass as they went in the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wheresoever thou goest, Lord. ⁵⁸And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes and the birds of the heaven roosting-places, but the Son of man has not where he may lay his head. ⁵⁹And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me to go first and bury my father. ⁶⁰But Jesus said to him, Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, but do thou go and announce the kingdom of God. ⁶¹And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid adieu to those at my house. ⁶²But Jesus said to him, No one having laid his hand on the plough and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God.
