5 And into whatsoever house all of you enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
Njalo lakuyiphi indlu elingena kuyo, qalani lithi: Ukuthula kakube kulindlu.
6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.

9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God has come nigh unto you.
lisilise abagulayo abakuwo, njalo lithi kubo: Umbuso kaNkulunkulu usondele kini.
10 But into whatsoever city all of you enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,

Maye kuwe, Korazini! Maye kuwe, Bhethisayida! Ngoba uba kwakwenziwe eTire leSidoni imisebenzi yamandla eyenziwe kini, ngabe kade baphenduka bahlala emasakeni lemlotheni.
14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
Kodwa kuzakuba lula eTire leSidoni ekugwetshweni, kulakini.

16 He that hears you hears me; and he that despises you despises me; and he that despises me despises him that sent me.
Olizwayo lina uyangizwa mina; lolalayo lina uyangala mina; longalayo mina uyamala ongithumileyo.
17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through your name.
Babuya-ke abangamatshumi ayisikhombisa ngentokozo, besithi: Nkosi, lamadimoni ayazehlisela ngaphansi kwethu ebizweni lakho.
