WEB·Luke 11

¹When he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples.”

KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), that, as^G1722 he^G846 was^G1511^(G5750) praying^G4336^(G5740) in^G1722 a certain^G5100 place^G5117, when^G5613 he ceased^G3973^(G5668), one^G5100 of his^G846 disciples^G3101 said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 him^G846, Lord^G2962, teach^G1321^(G5657) us^G2248 to pray^G4336^(G5738), as^G2531 John^G2491 also^G2532 taught^G1321^(G5656) his^G846 disciples^G3101.

² He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, When^G3752 ye pray^G4336^(G5741), say^G3004^(G5720), Our^G2257 Father^G3962 which^G3588 art in^G1722 heaven^G3772, Hallowed be^G37^(G5682) thy^G4675 name^G3686. Thy^G4675 kingdom^G932 come^G2064^(G5628). Thy^G4675 will^G2307 be done^G1096^(G5676), as^G5613 in^G1722 heaven^G3772, so^G2532 in^G1909 earth^G1093.

³ Give us day by day our daily bread.

KJVGive^G1325^(G5720) us^G2254 day^G2596 by day^G2250 our^G2257 daily^G1967 bread^G740.

⁴ Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”

KJVAnd^G2532 forgive^G863^(G5628) us^G2254 our^G2257 sins^G266; for^G1063 we^G846 also^G2532 forgive^G863^(G5719) every one^G3956 that is indebted^G3784^(G5723) to us^G2254. And^G2532 lead^G1533^(G5661) us^G2248 not^G3361 into^G1519 temptation^G3986; but^G235 deliver^G4506^(G5663) us^G2248 from^G575 evil^G4190.

⁵ He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, Which^G5101 of^G1537 you^G5216 shall have^G2192^(G5692) a friend^G5384, and^G2532 shall go^G4198^(G5695) unto^G4314 him^G846 at midnight^G3317, and^G2532 say^G2036^(G5632) unto him^G846, Friend^G5384, lend^G5531^(G5657) me^G3427 three^G5140 loaves^G740;

⁶ for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’

KJVFor^G1894 a friend^G5384 of mine^G3450 in^G1537 his journey^G3598 is come^G3854^(G5633) to^G4314 me^G3165, and^G2532 I have^G2192^(G5719) nothing^G3756^G3739 to set before^G3908^(G5692) him^G846?

⁷ and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?

KJVAnd he^G2548 from within^G2081 shall answer^G611^(G5679) and say^G2036^(G5632), Trouble^G2873^G3930^(G5720) me^G3427 not^G3361: the door^G2374 is^G2808 now^G2235 shut^G2808^(G5769), and^G2532 my^G3450 children^G3813 are^G1526^(G5748) with^G3326 me^G1700 in^G1519 bed^G2845; I cannot^G3756^G1410^(G5736) rise^G450^(G5631) and give^G1325^(G5629) thee^G4671.

⁸ I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.

KJVI say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Though^G1499 he will^G1453 not^G3756 rise^G1453^(G5685) and give^G1325^(G5692) him^G846, because^G1223 he is^G1511^(G5750) his^G846 friend^G5384, yet^G1065 because^G1223 of his^G846 importunity^G335 he will rise^G450^(G5631) and give^G1325^(G5692) him^G846 as many as^G3745 he needeth^G5535^(G5719).

⁹ “I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.

KJVAnd^G2504 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Ask^G154^(G5720), and^G2532 it shall be given^G1325^(G5701) you^G5213; seek^G2212^(G5720), and^G2532 ye shall find^G2147^(G5692); knock^G2925^(G5720), and^G2532 it shall be opened^G455^(G5691) unto you^G5213.

¹⁰ For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

KJVFor^G1063 every one^G3956 that asketh^G154^(G5723) receiveth^G2983^(G5719); and^G2532 he that seeketh^G2212^(G5723) findeth^G2147^(G5719); and^G2532 to him that knocketh^G2925^(G5723) it shall be opened^G455^(G5691).

¹¹ “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?

KJVIf^G1161 a son^G5207 shall ask^G154^(G5692) bread^G740 of any of you^G5216 that is a father^G3962^G5101, will he give^G1929^(G5692)^G3361 him^G846 a stone^G3037? or^G1499 if he ask a fish^G2486, will he^G1929 for^G473 a fish^G2486 give^G1929^(G5692)^G3361 him^G846 a serpent^G3789?

¹² Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?

KJVOr^G2228^G2532 if^G1437 he shall ask^G154^(G5661) an egg^G5609, will he offer^G3361^G1929^(G5692) him^G846 a scorpion^G4651?

¹³ If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”

KJVIf^G1487 ye^G5210 then^G3767, being^G5225^(G5723) evil^G4190, know^G1492^(G5758) how to give^G1325^(G5721) good^G18 gifts^G1390 unto your^G5216 children^G5043: how much^G4214 more^G3123 shall^G1325 your heavenly^G3772 Father^G3962^G1537 give^G1325^(G5692) the Holy^G40 Spirit^G4151 to them that ask^G154^(G5723) him^G846?

¹⁴ He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marveled.

KJVAnd^G2532 he was^G2258^(G5713) casting out^G1544^(G5723) a devil^G1140, and^G2532 it^G846 was^G2258^(G5713) dumb^G2974. And^G1161 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), when the devil^G1140 was gone out^G1831^(G5631), the dumb^G2974 spake^G2980^(G5656); and^G2532 the people^G3793 wondered^G2296^(G5656).

¹⁵ But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”

KJVBut^G1161 some^G5100 of^G1537 them^G846 said^G2036^(G5627), He casteth out^G1544^(G5719) devils^G1140 through^G1722 Beelzebub^G954 the chief^G758 of the devils^G1140.

¹⁶ Others, testing him, sought from him a sign from heaven.

KJVAnd^G1161 others^G2087, tempting^G3985^(G5723) him, sought^G2212^(G5707) of^G3844 him^G846 a sign^G4592 from^G1537 heaven^G3772.

¹⁷ But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.

KJVBut^G1161 he^G846, knowing^G1492^(G5761) their^G846 thoughts^G1270, said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Every^G3956 kingdom^G932 divided^G1266^(G5685) against^G1909 itself^G1438 is brought to desolation^G2049^(G5743); and^G2532 a house^G3624 divided against^G1909 a house^G3624 falleth^G4098^(G5719).

¹⁸ If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.

KJVIf^G1161^G1499 Satan^G4567 also^G1499 be divided^G1266^(G5681) against^G1909 himself^G1438, how^G4459 shall^G2476 his^G846 kingdom^G932 stand^G2476^(G5701)? because^G3754 ye say^G3004^(G5719) that I^G3165 cast out^G1544^(G5721) devils^G1140 through^G1722 Beelzebub^G954.

¹⁹ But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.

KJVAnd^G1161 if^G1487 I^G1473 by^G1722 Beelzebub^G954 cast out^G1544^(G5719) devils^G1140, by^G1722 whom^G5101 do^G1544 your^G5216 sons^G5207 cast them out^G1544^(G5719)? therefore^G1223^G5124 shall they^G846 be^G2071^(G5704) your^G5216 judges^G2923.

²⁰ But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.

KJVBut^G1161 if^G1487 I with^G1722 the finger^G1147 of God^G2316 cast out^G1544^(G5719) devils^G1140, no doubt^G686 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 is come^G5348^(G5656) upon^G1909 you^G5209.

²¹ “When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.

KJVWhen^G3752 a strong man^G2478 armed^G2528^(G5772) keepeth^G5442^(G5725) his^G833 palace^G1438, his^G846 goods^G5224^(G5723) are^G2076^(G5748) in^G1722 peace^G1515:

²² But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armor in which he trusted, and divides his plunder.

KJVBut^G1161 when^G1875 a stronger^G2478 than he^G846 shall come upon him^G1904^(G5631), and overcome^G3528^(G5661) him^G846, he taketh^G142^(G5719) from him^G846 all his armour^G3833 wherein^G1909^G3739 he trusted^G3982^(G5714), and^G2532 divideth^G1239^(G5719) his^G846 spoils^G4661.

²³ “He who is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.

KJVHe that is^G5607^(G5752) not^G3361 with^G3326 me^G1700 is^G2076^(G5748) against^G2596 me^G1700: and^G2532 he that gathereth^G4863^(G5723) not^G3361 with^G3326 me^G1700 scattereth^G4650^(G5719).

²⁴ The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’

KJVWhen^G3752 the unclean^G169 spirit^G4151 is gone^G1831^(G5632) out of^G575 a man^G444, he walketh^G1330^(G5736) through^G1223 dry^G504 places^G5117, seeking^G2212^(G5723) rest^G372; and^G2532 finding^G2147^(G5723) none^G3361, he saith^G3004^(G5719), I will return^G5290^(G5692) unto^G1519 my^G3450 house^G3624 whence^G3606 I came out^G1831^(G5627).

²⁵ When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.

KJVAnd^G2532 when he cometh^G2064^(G5631), he findeth^G2147^(G5719) it swept^G4563^(G5772) and^G2532 garnished^G2885^(G5772).

²⁶ Then he goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”

KJVThen^G5119 goeth he^G4198^(G5736), and^G2532 taketh^G3880^(G5719) to him seven^G2033 other^G2087 spirits^G4151 more wicked^G4191 than himself^G1438; and^G2532 they enter in^G1525^(G5631), and dwell^G2730^(G5719) there^G1563: and^G2532 the last^G2078 state of that^G1565 man^G444 is^G1096^(G5736) worse^G5501 than the first^G4413.

²⁷ It came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”

KJVAnd^G1161 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), as^G1722 he^G846 spake^G3004^(G5721) these things^G5023, a certain^G5100 woman^G1135 of^G1537 the company^G3793 lifted up^G1869^(G5660) her voice^G5456, and said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Blessed^G3107 is the womb^G2836 that bare^G941^(G5660) thee^G4571, and^G2532 the paps^G3149 which^G3739 thou hast sucked^G2337^(G5656).

²⁸ But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”

KJVBut^G1161 he^G846 said^G2036^(G5627), Yea rather^G3304, blessed^G3107 are they that hear^G191^(G5723) the word^G3056 of God^G2316, and^G2532 keep^G5442^(G5723) it^G846.

²⁹ When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.

KJVAnd^G1161 when the people^G3793 were gathered thick together^G1865^(G5746), he began^G756^(G5662) to say^G3004^(G5721), This^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) an evil^G4190 generation^G1074: they seek^G1934^(G5719) a sign^G4592; and^G2532 there shall^G1325 no^G3756 sign^G4592 be given^G1325^(G5701) it^G846, but^G1508 the sign^G4592 of Jonas^G2495 the prophet^G4396.

³⁰ For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also be to this generation.

KJVFor^G1063 as^G2531 Jonas^G2495 was^G1096^(G5633) a sign^G4592 unto the Ninevites^G3536, so^G3779 shall^G2071 also^G2532 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 be^G2071^(G5704) to this^G5026 generation^G1074.

³¹ The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and will condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.

KJVThe queen^G938 of the south^G3558 shall rise up^G1453^(G5701) in^G1722 the judgment^G2920 with^G3326 the men^G435 of this^G5026 generation^G1074, and^G2532 condemn^G2632^(G5692) them^G846: for^G3754 she came^G2064^(G5627) from^G1537 the utmost parts^G4009 of the earth^G1093 to hear^G191^(G5658) the wisdom^G4678 of Solomon^G4672; and^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), a greater than^G4119 Solomon^G4672 is here^G5602.

³² The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.

KJVThe men^G435 of Nineve^G3535 shall rise up^G450^(G5698) in^G1722 the judgment^G2920 with^G3326 this^G5026 generation^G1074, and^G2532 shall condemn^G2632^(G5692) it^G846: for^G3754 they repented^G3340^(G5656) at^G1519 the preaching^G2782 of Jonas^G2495; and^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), a greater than^G4119 Jonas^G2495 is here^G5602.

³³ “No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.

KJV^G1161 No man^G3762, when he hath lighted^G681^(G5660) a candle^G3088, putteth^G5087^(G5719) it in^G1519 a secret place^G2926, neither^G3761 under^G5259 a bushel^G3426, but^G235 on^G1909 a candlestick^G3087, that^G2443 they which^G3588 come in^G1531^(G5740) may see^G991^(G5725) the light^G5338.

³⁴ The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.

KJVThe light^G3088 of the body^G4983 is^G2076^(G5748) the eye^G3788: therefore^G3767 when^G1875 thine^G4675 eye^G3788 is^G5600^(G5753) single^G573, thy^G4675 whole^G3650 body^G4983 also^G2532 is^G2076^(G5748) full of light^G5460; but^G1161 when^G3752 thine eye is^G5600^(G5753) evil^G4190, thy^G4675 body^G4983 also^G2532 is full of darkness^G4652.

³⁵ Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.

KJVTake heed^G4648^(G5720) therefore^G3767 that the light^G5457 which^G3588 is in^G1722 thee^G4671 be^G2076^(G5748) not^G3361 darkness^G4655.

³⁶ If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”

KJVIf^G1487 thy^G4675 whole^G3650 body^G4983 therefore^G3767 be full of light^G5460, having^G2192^(G5723) no^G3361^G5100 part^G3313 dark^G4652, the whole^G3650 shall be^G2071^(G5704) full of light^G5460, as^G5613 when^G3752 the bright shining^G796 of a candle^G3088 doth give^G5461 thee^G4571 light^G5461^(G5725).

³⁷ Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.

KJVAnd^G1161 as^G1722 he spake^G2980^(G5658), a certain^G5100 Pharisee^G5330 besought^G2065^(G5707) him^G846 to^G3704 dine^G709^(G5661) with^G3844 him^G846: and^G1161 he went in^G1525^(G5631), and sat down to meat^G377^(G5627).

³⁸ When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.

KJVAnd^G1161 when the Pharisee^G5330 saw^G1492^(G5631) it, he marvelled^G2296^(G5656) that^G3754 he had^G907 not^G3756 first^G4412 washed^G907^(G5681) before^G4253 dinner^G712.

³⁹ The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.

KJVAnd^G1161 the Lord^G2962 said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 him^G846, Now^G3568 do^G2511 ye^G5210 Pharisees^G5330 make clean^G2511^(G5719) the outside^G1855 of the cup^G4221 and^G2532 the platter^G4094; but^G1161 your^G5216 inward part^G2081 is full^G1073^(G5719) of ravening^G724 and^G2532 wickedness^G4189.

⁴⁰ You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?

KJVYe fools^G878, did^G4160 not^G3756 he that made^G4160^(G5660) that which^G3588 is without^G1855 make^G4160^(G5656) that which^G3588 is within^G2081 also^G2532?

⁴¹ But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.

KJVBut rather^G4133 give^G1325^(G5628) alms^G1654 of such things as ye have^G1751^(G5752); and^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), all things^G3956 are^G2076^(G5748) clean^G2513 unto you^G5213.

⁴² But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.

KJVBut^G235 woe^G3759 unto you^G5213, Pharisees^G5330! for^G3754 ye tithe^G586^(G5719) mint^G2238 and^G2532 rue^G4076 and^G2532 all manner^G3956 of herbs^G3001, and^G2532 pass over^G3928^(G5736) judgment^G2920 and^G2532 the love^G26 of God^G2316: these^G5023 ought ye^G1163^(G5713) to have done^G4160^(G5658), and not^G3361 to leave^G863 the other^G2548 undone^G863^(G5721).

⁴³ Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

KJVWoe^G3759 unto you^G5213, Pharisees^G5330! for^G3754 ye love^G25^(G5719) the uppermost seats^G4410 in^G1722 the synagogues^G4864, and^G2532 greetings^G783 in^G1722 the markets^G58.

⁴⁴ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”

KJVWoe^G3759 unto you^G5213, scribes^G1122 and^G2532 Pharisees^G5330, hypocrites^G5273! for^G3754 ye are^G2075^(G5748) as^G5613 graves^G3419 which^G3588 appear not^G82, and^G2532 the men^G444 that walk^G4043^(G5723) over^G1883 them are^G1492 not^G3756 aware^G1492^(G5758) of them.

⁴⁵ One of the lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying this you insult us also.”

KJVThen^G1161 answered^G611^(G5679) one^G5100 of the lawyers^G3544, and said^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Master^G1320, thus^G5023 saying^G3004^(G5723) thou reproachest^G5195^(G5719) us^G2248 also^G2532.

⁴⁶ He said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627), Woe^G3759 unto you^G5213 also^G2532, ye lawyers^G3544! for^G3754 ye lade^G5412^(G5719) men^G444 with burdens^G5413 grievous to be borne^G1419, and^G2532 ye yourselves^G846 touch^G4379^(G5719) not^G3756 the burdens^G5413 with one^G1520 of your^G5216 fingers^G1147.

⁴⁷ Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

KJVWoe^G3759 unto you^G5213! for^G3754 ye build^G3618^(G5719) the sepulchres^G3419 of the prophets^G4396, and^G1161 your^G5216 fathers^G3962 killed^G615^(G5656) them^G846.

⁴⁸ So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.

KJVTruly^G686 ye bear witness^G3140^(G5719) that^G2532 ye allow^G4909^(G5719) the deeds^G2041 of your^G5216 fathers^G3962: for^G3754 they^G846 indeed^G3303 killed^G615^(G5656) them^G846, and^G1161 ye^G5210 build^G3618^(G5719) their^G846 sepulchres^G3419.

⁴⁹ Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,

KJVTherefore^G1223^G5124 also^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) the wisdom^G4678 of God^G2316, I will send^G649^(G5692)^G1519 them^G846 prophets^G4396 and^G2532 apostles^G652, and^G2532 some of^G1537 them^G846 they shall slay^G615^(G5692) and^G2532 persecute^G1559^(G5692):

⁵⁰ that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,

KJVThat^G2443 the blood^G129 of all^G3956 the prophets^G4396, which^G3588 was shed^G1632^(G5746) from^G575 the foundation^G2602 of the world^G2889, may be required^G1567^(G5686) of^G575 this^G5026 generation^G1074;

⁵¹ from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.

KJVFrom^G575 the blood^G129 of Abel^G6 unto^G2193 the blood^G129 of Zacharias^G2197, which^G3588 perished^G622^(G5642) between^G3342 the altar^G2379 and^G2532 the temple^G3624: verily^G3483 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, It shall be required^G1567^(G5701) of^G575 this^G5026 generation^G1074.

⁵² Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”

KJVWoe^G3759 unto you^G5213, lawyers^G3544! for^G3754 ye have taken away^G142^(G5656) the key^G2807 of knowledge^G1108: ye entered^G1525 not^G3756 in^G1525^(G5627) yourselves^G846, and^G2532 them that were entering in^G1525^(G5740) ye hindered^G2967^(G5656).

⁵³ As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,

KJVAnd^G1161 as he^G846 said^G3004^(G5723) these things^G5023 unto^G4314 them^G846, the scribes^G1122 and^G2532 the Pharisees^G5330 began^G756^(G5662) to urge^G1758^(G5721) him vehemently^G1171, and^G2532 to provoke^G653 him^G846 to speak^G653^(G5721) of^G4012 many things^G4119:

⁵⁴ lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.

KJVLaying wait for^G1748^(G5723) him^G846, and^G2532 seeking^G2212^(G5723) to catch^G2340^(G5658) something^G5100 out of^G1537 his^G846 mouth^G4750, that^G2443 they might accuse^G2723^(G5661) him^G846.

WEB·Luke 10

¹Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place where he was about to come.

KJV^G1161 After^G3326 these things^G5023 the Lord^G2962 appointed^G322^(G5656) other^G2087 seventy^G1440 also^G2532, and^G2532 sent^G649^(G5656) them^G846 two^G303 and two^G1417 before^G4253 his^G846 face^G4383 into^G1519 every^G3956 city^G4172 and^G2532 place^G5117, whither^G3757^(G5625)^G3739 he himself^G846 would^G3195^(G5707) come^G2064^(G5738).

² Then he said to them, “The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.

KJVTherefore^G3767 said he^G3004^(G5707) unto^G4314 them^G846, The harvest^G2326 truly^G3303 is great^G4183, but^G1161 the labourers^G2040 are few^G3641: pray ye^G1189^(G5676) therefore^G3767 the Lord^G2962 of the harvest^G2326, that^G3704 he would send forth^G1544^(G5725) labourers^G2040 into^G1519 his^G846 harvest^G2326.

³ Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.

⁴ Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.

KJVCarry^G941^(G5720) neither^G3361 purse^G905, nor^G3361 scrip^G4082, nor^G3366 shoes^G5266: and^G2532 salute^G782^(G5667) no man^G3367 by^G2596 the way^G3598.

⁵ Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’

⁶ If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.

KJVAnd^G2532 if^G1437^G3303 the son^G5207 of peace^G1515 be^G5600^(G5753) there^G1563, your^G5216 peace^G1515 shall rest^G1879^(G5695) upon^G1909 it^G846: if not^G1490, it shall turn^G344 to^G1909 you^G5209 again^G344^(G5692).

⁷ Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Don’t go from house to house.

KJVAnd^G1161 in^G1722 the same^G846 house^G3614 remain^G3306^(G5720), eating^G2068^(G5723) and^G2532 drinking^G4095^(G5723) such things as^G3844 they^G846 give^G3844: for^G1063 the labourer^G2040 is^G2076^(G5748) worthy^G514 of his^G846 hire^G3408. Go^G3327^(G5720) not^G3361 from^G1537 house^G3614 to^G1519 house^G3614.

⁸ Into whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.

KJVAnd^G2532 into^G1519 whatsoever^G1161^G3739^G302 city^G4172 ye enter^G1525^(G5741), and^G2532 they receive^G1209^(G5741) you^G5209, eat such things^G2068^(G5720) as are set before^G3908^(G5746) you^G5213:

⁹ Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’

KJVAnd^G2532 heal^G2323^(G5720) the sick^G772 that are therein^G1722^G846, and^G2532 say^G3004^(G5720) unto them^G846, The kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 is come nigh^G1448^(G5758) unto^G1909 you^G5209.

¹⁰ But into whatever city you enter and they don’t receive you, go out into its streets and say,

KJVBut^G1161 into^G1519 whatsoever^G3739^G302 city^G4172 ye enter^G1525^(G5741), and^G2532 they receive^G1209^(G5741) you^G5209 not^G3361, go your ways out^G1831^(G5631) into^G1519 the streets^G4113 of the same^G846, and say^G2036^(G5628),

¹¹ ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’

KJVEven^G2532 the very dust^G2868 of^G1537 your^G5216 city^G4172, which^G3588 cleaveth^G2853^(G5685) on us^G2254, we do wipe off^G631^(G5731) against you^G5213: notwithstanding^G4133 be ye sure^G1097^(G5720) of this^G5124, that^G3754 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 is come nigh^G1448^(G5758) unto^G1909 you^G5209.

¹² I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.

KJVBut^G1161 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, that^G3754 it shall be^G2071^(G5704) more tolerable^G414 in^G1722 that^G1565 day^G2250 for Sodom^G4670, than^G2228 for that^G1565 city^G4172.

¹³ “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

KJVWoe^G3759 unto thee^G4671, Chorazin^G5523! woe^G3759 unto thee^G4671, Bethsaida^G966! for^G3754 if^G1487 the mighty works^G1411 had been done^G1096^(G5633) in^G1722 Tyre^G5184 and^G2532 Sidon^G4605, which^G3588 have been done^G1096^(G5637) in^G1722 you^G5213, they had^G3340 a great while ago^G3819 repented^G3340^(G5656), sitting^G2521^(G5740) in^G302^G1722 sackcloth^G4526 and^G2532 ashes^G4700.

¹⁴ But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.

KJVBut^G4133 it shall be^G2071^(G5704) more tolerable^G414 for Tyre^G5184 and^G2532 Sidon^G4605 at^G1722 the judgment^G2920, than^G2228 for you^G5213.

¹⁵ You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades.

KJVAnd^G2532 thou^G4771, Capernaum^G2584, which^G3588 art exalted^G5312^(G5685) to^G2193 heaven^G3772, shalt be thrust down^G2601^(G5701) to^G2193 hell^G86.

¹⁶ Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”

KJVHe that heareth^G191^(G5723) you^G5216 heareth^G191^(G5719) me^G1700; and^G2532 he that despiseth^G114^(G5723) you^G5209 despiseth^G114^(G5719) me^G1691; and^G1161 he that despiseth^G114^(G5723) me^G1691 despiseth^G114^(G5719) him that sent^G649^(G5660) me^G3165.

¹⁷ The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”

KJVAnd^G1161 the seventy^G1440 returned again^G5290^(G5656) with^G3326 joy^G5479, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, even^G2532 the devils^G1140 are subject^G5293^(G5743) unto us^G2254 through^G1722 thy^G4675 name^G3686.

¹⁸ He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, I beheld^G2334^(G5707) Satan^G4567 as^G5613 lightning^G796 fall^G4098^(G5631) from^G1537 heaven^G3772.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.

KJVBehold^G2400^(G5628), I give^G1325^(G5719) unto you^G5213 power^G1849 to tread^G3961^(G5721) on^G1883 serpents^G3789 and^G2532 scorpions^G4651, and^G2532 over^G1909 all^G3956 the power^G1411 of the enemy^G2190: and^G2532 nothing^G3762 shall^G91 by any means^G3364 hurt^G91^(G5661)^(G5625)^G91^(G5692) you^G5209.

²⁰ Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

KJVNotwithstanding^G4133 in^G1722 this^G5129 rejoice^G5463^(G5720) not^G3361, that^G3754 the spirits^G4151 are subject^G5293^(G5743) unto you^G5213; but^G1161 rather^G3123 rejoice^G5463^(G5720), because^G3754 your^G5216 names^G3686 are written^G1125^(G5648) in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

²¹ In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”

KJVIn^G1722 that^G846 hour^G5610 Jesus^G2424 rejoiced in^G21^(G5662) spirit^G4151, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), I thank^G1843^(G5731) thee^G4671, O Father^G3962, Lord^G2962 of heaven^G3772 and^G2532 earth^G1093, that^G3754 thou hast hid^G613^(G5656) these things^G5023 from^G575 the wise^G4680 and^G2532 prudent^G4908, and^G2532 hast revealed^G601^(G5656) them^G846 unto babes^G3516: even so^G3483, Father^G3962; for^G3754 so^G3779 it seemed^G1096^(G5633) good^G2107 in^G1715 thy^G4675 sight^G1715.

²² Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”

KJVAll things^G3956 are delivered^G3860^(G5681) to me^G3427 of^G5259 my^G3450 Father^G3962: and^G2532 no man^G3762 knoweth^G1097^(G5719) who^G5101 the Son^G5207 is^G2076^(G5748), but^G1508 the Father^G3962; and^G2532 who^G5101 the Father^G3962 is^G2076^(G5748), but^G1508 the Son^G5207, and^G2532 he to whom^G3739^G1437 the Son^G5207 will^G1014^(G5741) reveal^G601^(G5658) him.

²³ Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,

KJVAnd^G2532 he turned him^G4762^(G5651) unto^G4314 his disciples^G3101, and said^G2036^(G5627) privately^G2398^G2596, Blessed^G3107 are the eyes^G3788 which^G3588 see^G991^(G5723) the things that^G3739 ye see^G991^(G5719):

²⁴ for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”

KJVFor^G1063 I tell^G3004^(G5719) you^G5213, that^G3754 many^G4183 prophets^G4396 and^G2532 kings^G935 have desired^G2309^(G5656) to see^G1492^(G5629) those things which^G3739 ye^G5210 see^G991^(G5719), and^G2532 have^G1492 not^G3756 seen^G1492^(G5627) them; and^G2532 to hear^G191^(G5658) those things which^G3739 ye hear^G191^(G5719), and^G2532 have^G191 not^G3756 heard^G191^(G5656) them.

²⁵ Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), a certain^G5100 lawyer^G3544 stood up^G450^(G5627), and^G2532 tempted^G1598^(G5723) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Master^G1320, what^G5101 shall I do^G4160^(G5660) to inherit^G2816^(G5692) eternal^G166 life^G2222?

²⁶ He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”

KJV^G1161 He said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 him^G846, What^G5101 is written^G1125^(G5769) in^G1722 the law^G3551? how^G4459 readest thou^G314^(G5719)?

²⁷ He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

KJVAnd^G1161 he answering^G611^(G5679) said^G2036^(G5627), Thou shalt love^G25^(G5692) the Lord^G2962 thy^G4675 God^G2316 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 heart^G2588, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 soul^G5590, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 strength^G2479, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 mind^G1271; and^G2532 thy^G4675 neighbour^G4139 as^G5613 thyself^G4572.

²⁸ He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Thou hast answered^G611^(G5662) right^G3723: this^G5124 do^G4160^(G5720), and^G2532 thou shalt live^G2198^(G5692).

²⁹ But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”

KJVAnd^G2532 on^G1909 the morrow^G839 when he departed^G1831^(G5631), he took out^G1544^(G5631) two^G1417 pence^G1220, and gave^G1325^(G5656) them to the host^G3830, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Take care^G1959^(G5682) of him^G846; and^G2532 whatsoever^G3748^G302 thou spendest more^G4325^(G5661), when I^G3165 come again^G1722^G1880^(G5738), I^G1473 will repay^G591^(G5692) thee^G4671.

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627), He that shewed^G4160^(G5660) mercy^G1656 on^G3326 him^G846. Then^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 unto him^G846, Go^G4198^(G5737), and^G2532 do^G4160^(G5720) thou^G4771 likewise^G3668.
