After these things the Lord chose seventy others also, and sent them out two by two before His face, into every place and city, where He was about to come.

And He said to them, The harvest is indeed great, but the laborers are few: therefore pray you the Lord of the harvest, that He may send forth laborers into His harvest.

Go: behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 yUyaM kShudraM mahad vA vasanasampuTakaM pAdukAshcha mA gR^ihlIta, mArgamadhye kamapi mA namata cha|
Take neither purse, nor valise, nor sandals: salute no one by the way.
5 apara ncha yUyaM yad yat niveshanaM pravishatha tatra niveshanasyAsya ma NgalaM bhUyAditi vAkyaM prathamaM vadata|
Into whatsoever house you may enter, first say, Peace be unto this house.

And if the son of peace may be there, your peace shall rest upon it: but if not, it shall return unto you.

Abide in the same house, eating and drinking those things which are with them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.

9 tannagarasthAn rogiNaH svasthAn kariShyatha, IshvarIyaM rAjyaM yuShmAkam antikam Agamat kathAmetA ncha prachArayiShyatha|
and heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come nigh unto you.
10 kintu kimapi puraM yuShmAsu praviShTeShu lokA yadi yuShmAkam AtithyaM na kariShyanti, tarhi tasya nagarasya panthAnaM gatvA kathAmetAM vadiShyatha,
And into whatsoever city you may enter, and they may not receive you, having come out into the streets of the same, say,
11 yuShmAkaM nagarIyA yA dhUlyo. asmAsu samalagan tA api yuShmAkaM prAtikUlyena sAkShyArthaM sampAtayAmaH; tathApIshvararAjyaM yuShmAkaM samIpam Agatam iti nishchitaM jAnIta|
Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, do we wipe off against you: but know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand.
12 ahaM yuShmabhyaM yathArthaM kathayAmi, vichAradine tasya nagarasya dashAtaH sidomo dashA sahyA bhaviShyati|

Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works which were wrought in you had been in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting down in sackcloth and ashes.
14 ato vichAradivase yuShmAkaM dashAtaH sorasIdonnivAsinAM dashA sahyA bhaviShyati|
Moreover it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
And thou, Capernaum, art thou not exalted up to heaven? thou shalt be cast down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)

He that heareth you heareth me; he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth Him that sent me.
17 atha te saptatishiShyA Anandena pratyAgatya kathayAmAsuH, he prabho bhavato nAmnA bhUtA apyasmAkaM vashIbhavanti|
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subordinated to us in thy name.
18 tadAnIM sa tAn jagAda, vidyutamiva svargAt patantaM shaitAnam adarsham|
And He said to them, I saw Satan having fallen as the lightning from heaven.

Behold I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you.
20 bhUtA yuShmAkaM vashIbhavanti, etannimittat mA samullasata, svarge yuShmAkaM nAmAni likhitAni santIti nimittaM samullasata|
Moreover do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.

At the same hour He rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I praise thee, O Father, Lord of the heaven and the earth, because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and revealed them to babes: yea, Father, because it was thus pleasing in thy sight.
22 pitrA sarvvANi mayi samarpitAni pitaraM vinA kopi putraM na jAnAti ki ncha putraM vinA yasmai janAya putrastaM prakAshitavAn ta ncha vinA kopi pitaraM na jAnAti|
And turning to His disciples, He said, All things have been delivered to me by my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, except the Father; and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom He may wish to reveal Him.

And turning to His disciples, privately He said, Happy are your eyes, seeing those things which you see.
24 yuShmAnahaM vadAmi, yUyaM yAni sarvvANi pashyatha tAni bahavo bhaviShyadvAdino bhUpatayashcha draShTumichChantopi draShTuM na prApnuvan, yuShmAbhi ryA yAH kathAshcha shrUyante tAH shrotumichChantopi shrotuM nAlabhanta|
For I say unto you, that many kings and prophets desired to see those things which you see, and saw them not; and to hear those things which you hear, and heard them not.

And behold, a certain lawyer stood up tempting Him, saying, Teacher, having done what shall I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 yIshuH pratyuvAcha, atrArthe vyavasthAyAM kiM likhitamasti? tvaM kIdR^ik paThasi?
He said to him, What has been written in the law? how do you read it?

And he responding said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with divine love from all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.

And He said to him, You answered correctly: do this, and you shall live.

But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

Jesus responding said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and fell among thieves, who indeed having stripped him of his raiment, administered blows, went away, leaving him half dead.
31 akasmAd eko yAjakastena mArgeNa gachChan taM dR^iShTvA mArgAnyapArshvena jagAma|
And by chance a certain priest came down that way: and seeing him, passed by on the other side.
32 ittham eko levIyastatsthAnaM prApya tasyAntikaM gatvA taM vilokyAnyena pArshvena jagAma|
And likewise also a Levite, being at the place, coming and seeing, passed by on the other side.
33 kintvekaH shomiroNIyo gachChan tatsthAnaM prApya taM dR^iShTvAdayata|
And a certain Samaritan, on a journey, came near him: and seeing, had compassion on him,
34 tasyAntikaM gatvA tasya kShateShu tailaM drAkShArasa ncha prakShipya kShatAni baddhvA nijavAhanopari tamupaveshya pravAsIyagR^iham AnIya taM siSheve|
and having come to him, he bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and having mounted him on his own beast, carried him to a tavern, and cared for him.
35 parasmin divase nijagamanakAle dvau mudrApAdau tadgR^ihasvAmine dattvAvadat janamenaM sevasva tatra yo. adhiko vyayo bhaviShyati tamahaM punarAgamanakAle parishotsyAmi|
And on the morrow, taking out two denaria, gave them to the host, and said, Care for him; and whatsoever you expend in addition, on my return, I will pay you.
36 eShAM trayANAM madhye tasya dasyuhastapatitasya janasya samIpavAsI kaH? tvayA kiM budhyate?
Which one of these three seems to you to have been the neighbor of him who fell among the thieves?
37 tataH sa vyavasthApakaH kathayAmAsa yastasmin dayAM chakAra| tadA yIshuH kathayAmAsa tvamapi gatvA tathAchara|
And he said, The one having done mercy with him. And Jesus said to him, Go, thou, and do likewise.
38 tataH paraM te gachChanta ekaM grAmaM pravivishuH; tadA marthAnAmA strI svagR^ihe tasyAtithyaM chakAra|
And it came to pass while they were going round, He also came into a certain village: and a certain woman by name Martha received Him into her house.
39 tasmAt mariyam nAmadheyA tasyA bhaginI yIshoH padasamIpa uvavishya tasyopadeshakathAM shrotumArebhe|
And there was a sister to her called Mary, who indeed sitting down at the feet of the Lord, continued to hear his word:
40 kintu marthA nAnAparicharyyAyAM vyagrA babhUva tasmAddhetostasya samIpamAgatya babhAShe; he prabho mama bhaginI kevalaM mamopari sarvvakarmmaNAM bhAram arpitavatI tatra bhavatA ki nchidapi na mano nidhIyate kim? mama sAhAyyaM karttuM bhavAn tAmAdishatu|
and Martha was very busy about much serving. And standing over Him, she said, Lord, is there no care to thee that my sister has left me to serve alone? then say to her that she must assist me.
41 tato yIshuH pratyuvAcha he marthe he marthe, tvaM nAnAkAryyeShu chintitavatI vyagrA chAsi,
And the Lord responding said to her, Martha, Martha, you are solicitous and encumbered concerning many things:
42 kintu prayojanIyam ekamAtram Aste| apara ncha yamuttamaM bhAgaM kopi harttuM na shaknoti saeva mariyamA vR^itaH|
but there is need of one thing: for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken from her.
