Luke 10:1-8

1 After this, the Lord appointed seventy other talmidim and sent them on ahead in pairs to every town and place where he himself was about to go.

2 He said to them, "To be sure, there is a large harvest. But there are few workers. Therefore, plead with the Lord of the Harvest that he speed workers out to gather in his harvest.

3 Get going now, but pay attention! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.

4 Don't carry a money-belt or a pack, and don't stop to shmoose with people on the road.

5 "Whenever you enter a house, first say, `Shalom!' to the household.

6 If a seeker of shalom is there, your `Shalom!' will find its rest with him; and if there isn't, it will return to you.

7 Stay in that same house, eating and drinking what they offer, for a worker deserves his wages -- don't move about from house to house.

8 "Whenever you come into a town where they make you welcome, eat what is put in front of you.
