Context of Luke 10:15
13Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the works of power which have taken place in you had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they had long ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you. And thou, Capernaum, who hast been raised up to heaven, shalt be brought down even to hades. 16He that hears you hears me; and he that rejects you rejects me; and he that rejects me rejects him that sent me. 17And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us through thy name.
