Matthew 9:32-38

32Just as they were going out, a demon-possessed man who was unable to speak was brought to him.

33When the demon had been driven out, the man who had been mute spoke, and the crowds were amazed, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”

34But the Pharisees said, “He drives out demons by the ruler of the demons.”

35Jesus continued going around to all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness.

36When he saw the crowds, he felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dejected, like sheep without a shepherd.

37Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few.

38Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest.”
