卢克 10: 1-12, 17-20

10:1 然后, after these things, the Lord also designated another seventy-two. And he sent them in pairs before his face, into every city and place where he was to arrive.

10:2 他对他们说: “Certainly the harvest is great, but the workers are few. 所以, ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into his harvest.

10:3 往前走. 看哪, I send you out like lambs among wolves.

10:4 Do not choose to carry a purse, nor provisions, 也不是鞋子; and you shall greet no one along the way.

10:5 Into whatever house you will have entered, first say, “愿这所房子平安。”

10:6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.

10:7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things that are with them. For the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not choose to pass from house to house.

10:8 And into whatever city you have entered and they have received you, eat what they set before you.

10:9 And cure the sick who are in that place, and proclaim to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’

10:10 But into whatever city you have entered and they have not received you, going out into its main streets, say:

10:11 ‘Even the dust which clings to us from your city, we wipe away against you. Yet know this: the kingdom of God has drawn near.’

10:12 我对你说, that in that day, Sodom will be forgiven more than that city will be.

10:13 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that have been wrought in you, had been wrought in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in haircloth and ashes.

10:14 然而真的, Tyre and Sidon will be forgiven more in the judgment than you will be.

10:15 至于你, Capernaum, who would be exalted even up to Heaven: you shall be submerged into Hell.

10:16 Whoever hears you, hears me. And whoever despises you, despises me. And whoever despises me, despises him who sent me.”

10:17 Then the seventy-two returned with gladness, 说, “主, even the demons are subject to us, in your name.”

10:18 他对他们说: “I was watching as Satan fell like lightning from heaven.

10:19 看哪, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the powers of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.

10:20 然而真的, do not choose to rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
