Luk 10:20

Luk 10:20Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."

Luk 10:21

Luk 10:21In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.

Luk 10:22

Luk 10:22All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."

Luk 10:23

Luk 10:23Then turning to the disciples he said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see!

Luk 10:24

Luk 10:24For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it."

Luk 10:25And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"

Luk 10:26

Luk 10:26He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read?"

Luk 10:27

Luk 10:27And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."

Luk 10:28

Luk 10:28And he said to him, "You have answered right; do this, and you will live."

Luk 10:29

Luk 10:29But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"

The Good Samaritan

Luk 10:30

Luk 10:30Jesus replied, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

Luk 10:31

Luk 10:31Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.

Luk 10:32

Luk 10:32So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

Luk 10:33

Luk 10:33But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion,

Luk 10:34

Luk 10:34and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

Luk 10:35

Luk 10:35And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, 'Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.'

Luk 10:36

Luk 10:36Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?"

Luk 10:37

Luk 10:37He said, "The one who showed mercy on him." And Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

Luk 10:38Now as they went on their way, he entered a village; and a woman named Martha received him into her house.

Luk 10:39

Luk 10:39And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching.

Luk 10:40

Luk 10:40But Martha was distracted with much serving; and she went to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me."

Luk 10:41

Luk 10:41But the Lord answered her, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things;

Luk 10:42

Luk 10:42one thing is needful. Mary has chosen the good portion, which shall not be taken away from her."
