Matthew 9:35-38

35Jesus was going through all the cities and villages, 1teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness.

362Seeing the 3people, He felt compassion for them, 4because they were 5distressed and 6dispirited like sheep 7without a shepherd. 37Then He said to His disciples, “8The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. 38Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.”
