WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 And after these things, the LORD also appointed seventy others, and sent them by twos before His face, to every city and place to where He Himself was about to come,
1 Y DESPUÉS de estas cosas, designó el Señor aun otros setenta, los cuales envió de dos en dos delante de sí, á toda ciudad y lugar á donde él había de venir.
1 Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place where he was about to come.
2 then He said to them, “The harvest [is] indeed abundant, but the workmen few; implore then the Lord of the harvest, that He may put forth workmen to His harvest.
2 Y les decía: La mies á la verdad es mucha, mas los obreros pocos; por tanto, rogad al Señor de la mies que envíe obreros á su mies.
2 Then he said to them, “The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.
3 Go away; behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves;
3 Andad, he aquí yo os envío como corderos en medio de lobos.
3 Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
4 carry no bag, no leather pouch, nor sandals; and greet no one on the way;
4 No llevéis bolsa, ni alforja, ni calzado; y á nadie saludéis en el camino.
4 Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.
5 and into whatever house you enter, first say, Peace to this house;
5 En cualquiera casa donde entrareis, primeramente decid: Paz [sea] á esta casa.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’
6 and if indeed there may be there the son of peace, your peace will rest on it; and if not so, it will turn back on you.
6 Y si hubiere allí algún hijo de paz, vuestra paz reposará sobre él; y si no, se volverá á vosotros.
6 If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
7 And remain in that house, eating and drinking the things they have, for worthy [is] the workman of his hire; do not go from house to house,
7 Y posad en aquella misma casa, comiendo y bebiendo lo que os dieren; porque el obrero digno es de su salario. No os paséis de casa en casa.
7 Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Don’t go from house to house.
8 and into whatever city you enter, and they may receive you, eat the things set before you,
8 Y en cualquier ciudad donde entrareis, y os recibieren, comed lo que os pusieren delante;
8 Into whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
9 and heal the ailing in it, and say to them, The Kingdom of God has come near to you.
9 Y sanad los enfermos que en ella hubiere, y decidles: Se ha llegado á vosotros el reino de Dios.
9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
10 And into whatever city you enter, and they may not receive you, having gone forth to its broad places, say,
10 Mas en cualquier ciudad donde entrareis, y no os recibieren, saliendo por sus calles, decid:
10 But into whatever city you enter and they don’t receive you, go out into its streets and say,
11 And the dust that has cleaved to us from your city, we wipe off against you, but know this, that the Kingdom of God has come near to you;
11 Aun el polvo que se nos ha pegado de vuestra ciudad á nuestros pies, sacudimos en vosotros: esto empero sabed, que el reino de los cielos se ha llegado á vosotros.
11 ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
12 and I say to you that it will be more tolerable for Sodom in that day than for that city.
12 Y os digo que los de Sodoma tendrán más remisión aquel día, que aquella ciudad.
12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
13 Woe to you, Chorazin; woe to you, Bethsaida; for if the mighty works that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they had converted long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes;
13 ¡Ay de ti, Corazín! ¡Ay de ti, Bethsaida! que si en Tiro y en Sidón hubieran sido hechas las maravillas que se han hecho en vosotras, ya días ha que, sentados en cilicio y ceniza, se habrían arrepentido.
13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 but it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
14 Por tanto, Tiro y Sidón tendrán más remisión que vosotras en el juicio.
14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
15 And you, Capernaum, which were exalted to Heaven, you will be brought down to Hades.
15 Y tú, Capernaum, que hasta los cielos estás levantada, hasta los infiernos serás abajada.
15 You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades.
16 He who is hearing you, hears Me; and he who is putting you away, puts Me away; and he who is putting Me away, puts away Him who sent Me.”
16 El que á vosotros oye, á mí oye; y el que á vosotros desecha, á mí desecha; y el que á mí desecha, desecha al que me envió.
16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
17 And the seventy turned back with joy, saying, “Lord, and the demons are being subjected to us in Your Name”;
17 Y volvieron los setenta con gozo, diciendo: Señor, aun los demonios se nos sujetan en tu nombre.
17 The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
18 and He said to them, “I was beholding Satan having fallen as lightning from Heaven;
18 Y les dijo: Yo veía á Satanás, como un rayo, que caía del cielo.
18 He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
19 behold, I give to you the authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and on all the power of the enemy, and nothing by any means will hurt you;
19 He aquí os doy potestad de hollar sobre las serpientes y sobre los escorpiones, y sobre toda fuerza del enemigo, y nada os dañará.
19 Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.
20 but do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subjected to you, but rejoice rather that your names were written in the heavens.”
20 Mas no os gocéis de esto, que los espíritus se os sujetan; antes gozaos de que vuestros nombres están escritos en los cielos.
20 Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21 In that hour Jesus was glad in the Spirit and said, “I confess to You, Father, Lord of Heaven and of earth, that You hid these things from wise men and understanding, and revealed them to babies; yes, Father, because so it became good pleasure before You.
21 En aquella misma hora Jesús se alegró en espíritu, y dijo: Yo te alabo, oh Padre, Señor del cielo y de la tierra, que escondiste estas cosas á los sabios y entendidos, y las has revelado á los pequeños: así, Padre, porque así te agradó.
21 In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”
22 All things were delivered up to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may resolve to reveal [Him].”
22 Todas las cosas me son entregadas de mi Padre: y nadie sabe quién sea el Hijo sino el Padre; ni quién sea el Padre, sino el Hijo, y á quien el Hijo [lo] quisiere revelar.
22 Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”
23 And having turned to the disciples, He said, by themselves, “Blessed the eyes that are perceiving what you perceive;
23 Y vuelto particularmente á los discípulos, dijo: Bienaventurados los ojos que ven lo que vosotros veis:
23 Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
24 for I say to you that many prophets and kings wished to see what you perceive, and did not see, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear.”
24 Porque os digo que muchos profetas y reyes desearon ver lo que vosotros veis, y no lo vieron; y oir lo que oís, y no lo oyeron.
24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”
25 And behold, a certain lawyer stood up, trying Him, and saying, “Teacher, what having done, will I inherit continuous life?”
25 Y he aquí, un doctor de la ley se levantó, tentándole y diciendo: Maestro, ¿haciendo qué cosa poseeré la vida eterna?
25 Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 And He said to him, “In the Law what has been written? How do you read [it]?”
26 Y él le dijo: ¿Qué está escrito en la ley? ¿cómo lees?
26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
27 And he answering said, “You will love the LORD your God out of all your heart, and out of all your soul, and out of all your strength, and out of all your understanding, and your neighbor as yourself.”
27 Y él respondiendo, dijo: Amarás al Señor tu Dios de todo tu corazón, y de toda tu alma, y de todas tus fuerzas, y de todo tu entendimiento; y á tu prójimo como á ti mismo.
27 He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 And He said to him, “You answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”
28 Y díjole: Bien has respondido: haz esto, y vivirás.
28 He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
29 And he, willing to declare himself righteous, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
29 Mas él, queriéndose justificar á sí mismo, dijo á Jesús: ¿Y quién es mi prójimo?
29 But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”
30 And Jesus having taken up [the word], said, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and having stripped him and inflicted blows, they went away, leaving [him] half dead.
30 Y respondiendo Jesús, dijo: Un hombre descendía de Jerusalem á Jericó, y cayó en [manos de] ladrones, los cuales le despojaron; é hiriéndole, se fueron, dejándole medio muerto.
30 Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 And by a coincidence a certain priest was going down in that way, and having seen him, he passed over on the opposite side;
31 Y aconteció, que descendió un sacerdote por aquel camino, y viéndole, se pasó de un lado.
31 By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 and in like manner also, a Levite, having been around the place, having come and seen, passed over on the opposite side.
32 Y asimismo un Levita, llegando cerca de aquel lugar, y viéndole, se pasó de un lado.
32 In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
33 But a certain Samaritan, journeying, came along him, and having seen him, he was moved with compassion,
33 Mas un Samaritano que transitaba, viniendo cerca de él, y viéndole, fué movido á misericordia;
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
34 and having come near, he bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and having lifted him up on his own beast, he brought him to an inn, and was careful of him;
34 Y llegándose, vendó sus heridas, echándo[les] aceite y vino; y poniéndole sobre su cabalgadura, llevóle al mesón, y cuidó de él.
34 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 and on the next day, going forth, taking out two denarii, he gave to the innkeeper and said to him, Be careful of him, and whatever you may spend more, I, in my coming again, will give back to you.
35 Y otro día al partir, sacó dos denarios, y diólos al huésped, y le dijo: Cuídamele; y todo lo que de más gastares, yo cuando vuelva te [lo] pagaré.
35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’
36 Who, then, of these three, seems to you to have become neighbor of him who fell among the robbers?”
36 ¿Quién, pues, de estos tres te parece que fué el prójimo de aquél que cayó en [manos de] los ladrones?
36 Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
37 And he said, “He who did the kindness with him,” then Jesus said to him, “Be going on, and you be doing in like manner.”
37 Y él dijo: El que usó con él de misericordia. Entonces Jesús le dijo: Ve, y haz tú lo mismo.
37 He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
38 And it came to pass, in their going on, that He entered into a certain village, and a certain woman, by name Martha, received Him into her house,
38 Y aconteció que yendo, entró él en una aldea: y una mujer llamada Marta, le recibió en su casa.
38 As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39 and she also had a sister, called Mary, who also, having seated herself beside the feet of Jesus, was hearing the word,
39 Y ésta tenía una hermana que se llamaba María, la cual sentándose á los pies de Jesús, oía su palabra.
39 She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.
40 and Martha was distracted about much serving, and having stood by Him, she said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister left me alone to serve? Say then to her that she may partake along with me.”
40 Empero Marta se distraía en muchos servicios; y sobreviniendo, dice: Señor, ¿no tienes cuidado que mi hermana me deja servir sola? Dile pues, que me ayude.
40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me.”
41 And Jesus answering said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and disquieted about many things,
41 Pero respondiendo Jesús, le dijo: Marta, Marta, cuidadosa estás, y con las muchas cosas estás turbada:
41 Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
42 but of one thing there is need, and Mary chose the good part; that will not be taken away from her.”
42 Empero una cosa es necesaria; y María escogió la buena parte, la cual no le será quitada.
42 but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
By the lesson of the Gospel which has just been read, we are reminded to search what that harvest is of which the Lord says, "The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few.

And He is called Angel and Apostle; for He declares whatever we ought to know, and is sent forth to declare whatever is revealed; as our Lord Himself says, "He that heareth Me, heareth Him that sent Me." From the writings of Moses also this will be manifest; for thus it is written in them, "And the Angel of God …
For the Lord, through means of suffering, "ascending into the lofty place, led captivity captive, gave gifts to men," and conferred on those that believe in Him the power "to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and on all the power of the enemy," that is, of the leader of apostasy.
This, therefore, is the counsel of Him whom I regard as having spoken the words, "Whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee."
