1 After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go.2 And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.3 Go your way; behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves.4 Carry no moneybag, no knapsack, no sandals, and greet no one on the road.5 Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house!’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 remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house.8 Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you.9 Heal the sick in it and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’10 But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go into its streets and say,11 ‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near.’12 I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town.13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.14 But it will be more bearable in the judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.15 And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades.16 “The one who hears you hears me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
Luke 12
1 In the meantime, when so many thousands of the people had gathered together that they were trampling one another, he began to say to his disciples first, “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.2 Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.3 Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops.4 “I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do.5 But I will warn you whom to fear: fear him who, after he has killed, has authority to cast into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him!6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God.7 Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.8 “And I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man also will acknowledge before the angels of God,9 but the one who denies me before men will be denied before the angels of God.10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but the one who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.11 And when they bring you before the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, do not be anxious about how you should defend yourself or what you should say,12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.”
Luke 9
1 And he called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases,2 and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal.3 And he said to them, “Take nothing for your journey, no staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money; and do not have two tunics.4 And whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart.5 And wherever they do not receive you, when you leave that town shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”6 And they departed and went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.
Mark 6
7 Tinawag niya ang labindalawang alagad at sinimulan niya silang isugo nang dala-dalawa at binigyan sila ng kapangyarihan laban sa mga karumal-dumal na espiritu.8 At sila ay pinagbilinan niya na huwag magdala ng anuman sa paglalakbay maliban lamang sa tungkod, walang supot, walang tinapay, walang salapi sa pamigkis9 maliban sa nakasuot nilang mga pangyapak at huwag magsuot ng dalawang tunika.10 At sinabi niya sa kanila, “Kapag pumasok kayo saan mang bahay, manatili kayo roon hanggang sa kayo ay makaalis.11 Ang sinumang hindi tatanggap o makikinig sa inyo, sa pag-alis ninyo roon, ipagpag ninyo ang alikabok ng inyong mga talampakan bilang patotoo sa kanila. Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, lalo pang madaling tiisin ang parusa sa Sodoma at Gomora kaysa sa lungsod na iyon sa araw ng paghuhukom.”12 At sa kanilang paghayo, ipinangaral nila sa mga tao na dapat silang magsisi,13 at sila ay nagpapalayas ng maraming demonyo at pinapahiran nila ng langis ang maraming maysakit at sila ay pinapagaling.
Matthew 10
5 Ang labindalawang ito ay isinugo ni Jesus at inutusan niya na sinasabi, “Huwag kayong pupunta sa daan ng mga Gentil at huwag kayong papasok sa alinmang lungsod ng mga taga-Samaria.
