1ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܦܪܫ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܫܒܥܝܢ ܘܫܕܪ ܐܢܘܢ ܬܪܝܢ ܬܪܝܢ ܩܕܡ ܦܪܨܘܦܗ ܠܟܠ ܐܬܪ ܘܡܕܝܢܐ ܕܥܬܝܕ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܐܙܠ ܀
1Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him literally, “before his face” into every city and place, where he was about to come.
2ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܨܕܐ ܤܓܝ ܘܦܥܠܐ ܙܥܘܪܝܢ ܒܥܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢ ܡܪܐ ܚܨܕܐ ܕܢܦܩ ܦܥܠܐ ܠܚܨܕܗ ܀
2Then 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.
3ܙܠܘ ܗܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܫܕܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܐܡܪܐ ܒܝܢܝ ܕܐܒܐ ܀
3 Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
4ܠܐ ܬܫܩܠܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܟܝܤܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܪܡܠܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܤܢܐ ܘܒܫܠܡܐ ܕܐܢܫ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܠܐ ܬܫܐܠܘܢ ܀
4 Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.
5ܘܠܐܝܢܐ ܒܝܬܐ ܕܥܐܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܐܡܪܘ ܫܠܡܐ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܗܢܐ ܀
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’
6ܘܐܢ ܐܝܬ ܬܡܢ ܒܪ ܫܠܡܐ ܢܬܬܢܝܚ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܫܠܡܟܘܢ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܢܗܦܘܟ ܀
6 If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
7ܒܗ ܕܝܢ ܒܒܝܬܐ ܗܘܘ ܟܕ ܠܥܤܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܫܬܝܢ ܡܢ ܕܝܠܗܘܢ ܫܘܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܦܥܠܐ ܐܓܪܗ ܘܠܐ ܬܫܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܒܝܬܐ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܀
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.
8ܘܠܐܝܕܐ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܥܐܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܡܩܒܠܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܥܤܘ ܡܕܡ ܕܡܬܬܤܝܡ ܠܟܘܢ ܀
8 Into whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
9ܘܐܤܘ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܟܪܝܗܝܢ ܒܗ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܩܪܒܬ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀
9 Heal the sick who are therein, and tell them, ‘The Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
10ܠܐܝܕܐ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܐܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܢܩܒܠܘܢܟܘܢ ܦܘܩܘ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܫܘܩܐ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܀
10 But into whatever city you enter, and they don’t receive you, go out into its streets and say,
11ܘܐܦ ܚܠܐ ܕܕܒܩ ܠܢ ܒܪܓܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܡܕܝܢܬܟܘܢ ܢܦܨܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܪܡ ܗܕܐ ܕܥܘ ܕܩܪܒܬ ܠܗ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀
11 ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
12ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܠܤܕܘܡ ܢܗܘܐ ܢܝܚ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܗܘ ܐܘ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܗܝ ܀
12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
13ܘܝ ܠܟܝ ܟܘܪܙܝܢ ܘܝ ܠܟܝ ܒܝܬ ܨܝܕܐ ܕܐܠܘ ܒܨܘܪ ܘܒܨܝܕܢ ܗܘܘ ܚܝܠܐ ܕܗܘܘ ܒܟܝܢ ܟܒܪ ܕܝܢ ܒܤܩܐ ܘܒܩܛܡܐ ܬܒܘ ܀
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.
14ܒܪܡ ܠܨܘܪ ܘܠܨܝܕܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܢܝܚ ܒܕܝܢܐ ܐܘ ܠܟܝܢ ܀
14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
15ܘܐܢܬܝ ܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܗܝ ܕܥܕܡܐ ܠܫܡܝܐ ܐܬܬܪܝܡܬܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܫܝܘܠ ܬܬܚܬܝܢ ܀
15 You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades. Hades is the lower realm of the dead, or Hell.
16ܡܢ ܕܠܟܘܢ ܫܡܥ ܠܝ ܫܡܥ ܘܡܢ ܕܠܟܘܢ ܛܠܡ ܠܝ ܗܘ ܛܠܡ ܘܡܢ ܕܠܝ ܛܠܡ ܛܠܡ ܠܡܢ ܕܫܠܚܢܝ ܀
16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
17ܘܗܦܟܘ ܗܢܘܢ ܫܒܥܝܢ ܕܫܕܪ ܒܚܕܘܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܪܢ ܐܦ ܫܐܕܐ ܡܫܬܥܒܕܝܢ ܠܢ ܒܫܡܟ ܀
17The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
18ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܙܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܗ ܠܤܛܢܐ ܕܢܦܠ ܐܝܟ ܒܪܩܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܀
18He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
19ܗܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܕܝܫܝܢ ܚܘܘܬܐ ܘܥܩܪܒܐ ܘܟܠܗ ܚܝܠܗ ܕܒܥܠܕܒܒܐ ܘܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܢܗܪܟܘܢ ܀
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.
20ܒܪܡ ܒܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܬܚܕܘܢ ܕܫܐܕܐ ܡܫܬܥܒܕܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܚܕܘ ܕܫܡܗܝܟܘܢ ܐܬܟܬܒܘ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܀
20 Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21ܒܗ ܒܫܥܬܐ ܪܘܙ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܡܘܕܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܐܒܝ ܡܪܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܘܕܐܪܥܐ ܕܟܤܝܬ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܚܟܝܡܐ ܘܤܟܘܠܬܢܐ ܘܓܠܝܬ ܐܢܝܢ ܠܝܠܘܕܐ ܐܝܢ ܐܒܝ ܕܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܀
21In 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.”
22ܘܐܬܦܢܝ ܠܘܬ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܠܝ ܡܢ ܐܒܝ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܝܕܥ ܡܢܘ ܒܪܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܐܒܐ ܘܡܢܘ ܐܒܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܒܪܐ ܘܠܡܢ ܕܐܢ ܢܨܒܐ ܒܪܐ ܕܢܓܠܐ ܀
22Turning 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.”
23ܘܐܬܦܢܝ ܠܘܬ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܒܠܚܘܕܝܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܛܘܒܝܗܝܢ ܠܥܝܢܐ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܚܙܝܢ ܀
23Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
24ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܘܡܠܟܐ ܨܒܘ ܕܢܚܙܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܚܙܘ ܘܠܡܫܡܥ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܡܥܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܫܡܥܘ ܀
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.”
25ܘܗܐ ܤܦܪܐ ܚܕ ܩܡ ܕܢܢܤܝܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܡܢܐ ܐܥܒܕ ܕܐܪܬ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܀
25Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
26ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܟܬܝܒ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܩܪܐ ܐܢܬ ܀
26He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
27ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܕܬܪܚܡ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܠܒܟ ܘܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܢܦܫܟ ܘܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܚܝܠܟ ܘܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܪܥܝܢܟ ܘܠܩܪܝܒܟ ܐܝܟ ܢܦܫܟ ܀
27He 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; Deuteronomy 6:5 and your neighbor as yourself.” Leviticus 19:18
28ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܬܪܝܨܐܝܬ ܐܡܪܬ ܗܕܐ ܥܒܕ ܘܬܚܐ ܀
28He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
29ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܨܒܐ ܠܡܙܕܩܘ ܢܦܫܗ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܘܡܢܘ ܩܪܝܒܝ ܀
29But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”
30ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܢܚܬ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܠܐܝܪܝܚܘ ܘܢܦܠܘ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܠܤܛܝܐ ܘܫܠܚܘܗܝ ܘܡܚܐܘܗܝ ܘܫܒܩܘܗܝ ܟܕ ܩܠܝܠ ܩܝܡܐ ܒܗ ܢܦܫܐ ܘܐܙܠܘ ܀
30Jesus 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.
31ܘܓܕܫ ܟܗܢܐ ܚܕ ܢܚܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܗܝ ܘܚܙܝܗܝ ܘܥܒܪ ܀
31 By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32ܘܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܠܘܝܐ ܐܬܐ ܡܛܐ ܠܗܝ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܘܚܙܝܗܝ ܘܥܒܪ ܀
32 In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.
33ܐܢܫ ܕܝܢ ܫܡܪܝܐ ܟܕ ܪܕܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܬܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܘܚܙܝܗܝ ܘܐܬܪܚܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܀
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
34ܘܐܬܩܪܒ ܘܥܨܒ ܡܚܘܬܗ ܘܢܨܠ ܥܠܝܗܝܢ ܚܡܪܐ ܘܡܫܚܐ ܘܤܡܗ ܥܠ ܚܡܪܗ ܘܐܝܬܝܗ ܠܦܘܬܩܐ ܘܐܬܒܛܠ ܠܗ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܀
34 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35ܘܠܨܦܪܗ ܕܝܘܡܐ ܐܦܩ ܬܪܝܢ ܕܝܢܪܝܢ ܝܗܒ ܠܦܘܬܩܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܨܦ ܕܝܠܗ ܘܐܢ ܡܕܡ ܝܬܝܪ ܬܦܩ ܡܐ ܕܗܦܟ ܐܢܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܀
35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and 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.’
36ܡܢܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܠܬܐ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܠܟ ܕܗܘܐ ܩܪܝܒܐ ܠܗܘ ܕܢܦܠ ܒܐܝܕܝ ܓܝܤܐ ܀
36 Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
37ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܪܚܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܙܠ ܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܥܒܕ ܀
37He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
38ܘܗܘܐ ܕܟܕ ܗܢܘܢ ܪܕܝܢ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܥܠ ܠܩܪܝܬܐ ܚܕܐ ܘܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܫܡܗ ܡܪܬܐ ܩܒܠܬܗ ܒܒܝܬܗ ܀
38It happened as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܠܗ ܚܬܐ ܕܫܡܗ ܡܪܝܡ ܘܐܬܬ ܝܬܒܬ ܠܗ ܠܘܬ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܢ ܘܫܡܥܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܠܘܗܝ ܀
39She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.
40ܡܪܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܒܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܬܐ ܘܐܬܬ ܐܡܪܐ ܠܗ ܡܪܝ ܠܐ ܒܛܝܠ ܠܟ ܕܚܬܝ ܫܒܩܬܢܝ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܠܡܫܡܫܘ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܥܕܪܐ ܠܝ ܀
40But 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.”
41ܥܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܪܬܐ ܡܪܬܐ ܝܨܦܬܝ ܘܪܗܝܒܬܝ ܥܠ ܤܓܝܐܬܐ ܀
41Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
42ܚܕܐ ܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܬܒܥܝܐ ܡܪܝܡ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܬܐ ܛܒܬܐ ܓܒܬ ܠܗ ܗܝ ܕܠܐ ܬܬܢܤܒ ܡܢܗ ܀
42 but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
