2 He said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.

5 Whatever house you enter, first say, 'May peace be on this house!'
And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace [be] to this house.

And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.

And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10 Whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
11 'Even the dust from your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you! But know this: The kingdom of God has come near.'
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.

But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
15 You, Capernaum, do you think you will be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)

16 The one who listens to you listens to me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects the one who sent me.”

20 Nevertheless do not rejoice only in this, that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice even more that your names are engraved in heaven.”
Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21 At that same time he rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you concealed these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to those who are untaught, like little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well pleasing in your sight.”

And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.
40 But Martha was overly busy with preparing to serve a meal. She came up to Jesus, and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.”
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.
41 But the Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious about many things,
And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42 but only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen what is best, which will not be taken away from her.”
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
