1 And after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy-two others and sent them out two by two before him into every town and place where he was about to go.
2 And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest that he send out workers into his harvest.
3 Go! Behold, I am sending you out like lambs in the midst of wolves!
4 Do not carry a money bag or a traveler’s bag or sandals, and greet no one along the road.
5 And into whatever house you enter, first say, “Peace be to this household!”
6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him. But if not, it will return to you.
7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking whatever they provide, for the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not move from house to house.
