Luke 10:21-24

Jesus Rejoices in the Father’s Will

21 ¹In that same hour ²he rejoiced ³in the Holy Spirit and said, “I thank you, Father, ⁴Lord of heaven and earth, that ⁵you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and ⁶revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for ⁷such was your gracious will. ^[a]

22 ⁸All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is ⁹except the Father, or who the Father is ¹⁰except the Son and anyone ¹¹to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. ”

23 Then turning to the disciples he said privately, ¹²“Blessed are the eyes that see what you see!

24 For I tell you ¹³that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it. ”
