KING JAMES BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.	1 Then, 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.
2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.	2 And he said to them: “Certainly the harvest is great, but the workers are few. Therefore, ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into his harvest.
3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.	3 Go forth. Behold, I send you out like lambs among wolves.
4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.	4 Do not choose to carry a purse, nor provisions, nor shoes; and you shall greet no one along the way.
5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.	5 Into whatever house you will have entered, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’
6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.	6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.	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.
8 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:	8 And into whatever city you have entered and they have received you, eat what they set before you.
9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.	9 And cure the sick who are in that place, and proclaim to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,	10 But into whatever city you have entered and they have not received you, going out into its main streets, say:
11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.	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.’
12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.	12 I say to you, that in that day, Sodom will be forgiven more than that city will be.
13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.	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.
14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.	14 Yet truly, Tyre and Sidon will be forgiven more in the judgment than you will be.
15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.	15 And as for you, Capernaum, who would be exalted even up to Heaven: you shall be submerged into Hell.
16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.	16 Whoever hears you, hears me. And whoever despises you, despises me. And whoever despises me, despises him who sent me.”
17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.	17 Then the seventy-two returned with gladness, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us, in your name.”
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.	18 And he said to them: “I was watching as Satan fell like lightning from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.	19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the powers of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.	20 Yet truly, do not choose to rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.	21 In the same hour, he exulted in the Holy Spirit, and he said: “I confess to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the prudent, and have revealed them to little ones. It is so, Father, because this way was pleasing before you.
22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.	22 All things have been delivered to me by my Father. And no one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and those to whom the Son has chosen to reveal him.”
23 And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:	23 And turning to his disciples, he said: “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
24 For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.	24 For I say to you, that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things that you see, and they did not see them, and to hear the things that you hear, and they did not hear them.”
25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?	25 And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?”
26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?	26 But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.	27 In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.	28 And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?	29 But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.	30 Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him. And inflicting him with wounds, they went away, leaving him behind, half-alive.
31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.	31 And it happened that a certain priest was descending along the same way. And seeing him, he passed by.
32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.	32 And similarly a Levite, when he was near the place, also saw him, and he passed by.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,	33 But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came near him. And seeing him, he was moved by mercy.
34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.	34 And approaching him, he bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. And setting him on his pack animal, he brought him to an inn, and he took care of him.
35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.	35 And the next day, he took out two denarii, and he gave them to the proprietor, and he said: ‘Take care of him. And whatever extra you will have spent, I will repay to you at my return.’
36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?	36 Which of these three, does it seem to you, was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.	37 Then he said, “The one who acted with mercy toward him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go, and act similarly.”
38 Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.	38 Now it happened that, while they were traveling, he entered into a certain town. And a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her home.
39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.	39 And she had a sister, named Mary, who, while sitting beside the Lord’s feet, was listening to his word.
40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.	40 Now Martha was continually busying herself with serving. And she stood still and said: “Lord, is it not a concern to you that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore, speak to her, so that she may help me.”
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:	41 And the Lord responded by saying to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled over many things.
42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.	42 And yet only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the best portion, and it shall not be taken away from her.”
