Gospel Luke 10:1-9

  • 1Then, after these things, the Lord also designated another seventy-two. And he sent them in pairs before his face, into every city and place where he was to arrive.

  • 2And he said to them: “Certainly the harvest is great, but the workers are few. Therefore, ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into his harvest.

  • 3Go forth. Behold, I send you out like lambs among wolves.

  • 4Do not choose to carry a purse, nor provisions, nor shoes; and you shall greet no one along the way.

  • 5Into whatever house you will have entered, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’

  • 6And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.

  • 7And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things that are with them. For the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not choose to pass from house to house.

  • 8And into whatever city you have entered and they have received you, eat what they set before you.

  • 9And cure the sick who are in that place, and proclaim to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’

Computed by Bless from the US Lectionary cycle — confirm with your parish.

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.

Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
