Chapter 10 of Luke—American Standard Version (ASV)

  1. ¶ Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy [a]1others, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself was about to come.
  2. And he said unto them, The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest.
  3. Go your ways; behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
  4. Carry no purse, no wallet, no shoes; and salute no man on the way.
  5. And into whatsoever house ye shall [b]enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
  6. And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon [c]him: but if not, it shall turn to you again.
  7. And in that same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
  8. And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:
  9. and heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
  10. But into whatsoever city ye shall enter, and they receive you not, go out into the streets thereof and say,
  11. Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, we wipe off against you: nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh.
  12. I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
  13. Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the [d]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 shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.
  15. And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be exalted unto heaven? thou shalt be brought down unto Hades.
  16. He that heareth you heareth me; and he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth him that sent me.
  17. ¶ And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name.
  18. And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven.
  19. Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.
  20. Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.
  21. ¶ In that same hour he rejoiced [e]in the Holy Spirit, and said, I [f]thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; [g]for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.
  22. All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, save the Father; and who the Father is, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal him.
  23. And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:
  24. for I say unto you, that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them not.
  25. ¶ And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and made trial of him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
  26. And he said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
  27. And he answering said, 2Thou shalt love the Lord thy God [h]with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; 3and thy neighbor as thyself.
  28. And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
  29. But he, desiring to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
  30. Jesus made answer and said, 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 chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
  32. And in like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.
  33. But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
  34. and came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on them oil and wine; and he set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
  35. And on the morrow he took out two [i]4shillings, and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, I, when I come back again, will repay thee.
  36. Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbor unto him that fell among the robbers?
  37. And he said, He that showed mercy on him. And Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
  38. ¶ Now 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 had a sister called Mary, who also sat at the Lord’s feet, and heard his word.
  40. But Martha was [j]cumbered about much serving; and she came up to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister did leave me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
  41. But the Lord answered and said unto her, [k]Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things:
  42. [l]but one thing is needful: for Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
