Luke 10:17-42

17Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Master, even the demons submit to us in Your name!”

18And Yeshua said to them, “I was watching satan fall like lightning from heaven.

19Behold, I have given you authority to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.

20Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names have been written in the heavens.”

21In that very hour, He was overjoyed in the Ruach ha-Kodesh and said, “I praise You, Father, Master of the universe, that You have hidden these things from the wise and discerning and revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was pleasing to You.

22All things have been handed over to Me by My Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.”

23Then turning to the disciples, He said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see!

24For I tell you, many prophets and kings desired to see what you are seeing yet did not see, and to hear what you are hearing yet did not hear.”

25Now a certain Torah lawyer stood up to entrap Yeshua, saying, “Teacher, what should I do to gain eternal life?”

26Then Yeshua said to him, “What has been written in the Torah? How do you read it?”

27And he replied, “You shall love Adonai your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

28Yeshua said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this and you will live.”

29But wanting to vindicate himself, he said to Yeshua, “Then who is my neighbor?”

30Yeshua replied, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho. He was attacked by robbers, who stripped him and beat him. Then they left, abandoning him as half dead.

31And by chance, a kohen was going down that road; but when he saw the man, he passed by on the opposite side.

32Likewise a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the opposite side.

33But a Samaritan who was traveling came upon him; and when he noticed the man, he felt compassion.

34He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. Then setting him on his own animal, he brought him to a lodge for travelers and took care of him.

35The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him. And whatever else you spend, upon my return I will repay you myself.’

36Which of these three seems to you a neighbor to the one attacked by robbers?”

37And he said, “The one who showed mercy to him.” Then Yeshua said to him, “Go, and you do the same.”

38Now while they were traveling, Yeshua entered a certain village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.

39She had a sister called Miriam, who was seated at the Master’s feet, listening to His teaching.

40But Martha was distracted with much serving; so she approached Yeshua and said, “Master, doesn’t it concern you that my sister has left me to serve alone? Then tell her to help me!”

41But answering her, the Lord said, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and bothered about many things;

42but only one thing is necessary. For Miriam has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
