Luke 10:5-9

Jesus Sends Out the Seventy-Two

5 Whatever house you enter, first say, e 'Peace be to this house!' 6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, f it will return to you. 7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for g the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house. 8 Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you. 9 Heal the sick in it and say to them, h 'The kingdom of God has come near to you.'
