Luke 10:1-3, 8-9
KJV—After these things the Lord appointed
another seventy also, and sent them
two and two before his face into every city
and place, whither he himself would come.
Therefore said he unto them, The harvest
truly is great, but the labourers are few:
pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest,
that he would send forth laborers into his
harvest. Go your ways…And into whatsoever
city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such
things as are set before you: And heal the
sick that are therein, and say unto them, The
kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

Amp—Now after this the Lord chose and
appointed seventy others, and sent them
out ahead of Him, two by two, into every
town and place where He Himself was
about to come (visit). And He said to them,
(There is much ripe grain,) the harvest indeed
is abundant, but the farm hands are
few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest
to send out laborers into His harvest. Go
your way; behold…Whenever you go into a
town and they receive and accept and welcome
you, eat what is set before you; And
heal the sick in it and say to them, The kingdom
of God has come close to you.

NEB—After this the Lord appointed a further
seventy-two and sent them on ahead
in pairs to every town and place he was
going to visit himself. He said to them: ‘The
crop is heavy, but labourers are scarce: you
must therefore beg the owner to send labourers
to harvest his crop. Be on your
way.’…Do not move from house to house.
When you come into a town and they make
you welcome, eat the food provided for you;
heal the sick there, and say, “The kingdom of
God has come close to you.”

Acts 3:1-10
KJV—Now Peter and John went up together
into the temple at the hour of prayer,
being the ninth hour. And a certain man
lame from his mother’s womb was carried,
whom they laid daily at the gate of the
temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms
of them that entered into the temple; Who
seeing Peter and John about to go into the
temple asked an alms.

And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him
with John, said, Look on us. And he gave
heed unto them, expecting to receive something
of them. Then Peter said, Silver and
gold have I none; but such as I have give I
thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
rise up and walk.

And he took him by the right hand, and
lifted him up: and immediately his feet and
ankle bones received strength. And he leaping
up stood, and walked, and entered with
them into the temple, walking, and leaping,
and praising God. And all the people saw
him walking and praising God: And they
knew that it was he which sat for alms at
the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they
were filled with wonder and amazement at
that which had happened unto him.

Amp—Now Peter and John were going up
to the temple at the hour of prayer, the
ninth hour (three o’clock in the afternoon),
[When] a certain man crippled from his birth
was being carried along, who was laid each
day at that gate of the temple [which is]
called Beautiful, that he might beg for charitable
gifts from those who entered the
temple. So when he saw Peter and John
about to go into the temple, he asked them
to give him a gift.

And Peter directed his gaze intently at
him, and so did John, and said, Look at us!
And [the man] paid attention to them, expecting
that he was going to get something
from them. But Peter said, Silver and gold
[money], I have none; but what I do have,
that I give to you: in (the use of) the name
of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!

Then he took hold of the man’s right
hand with a firm grip and raised him up.
And at once his feet and ankle bones
became strong and steady, And leaping
forth he stood and began to walk, and he
went into the temple with them, walking
and leaping and praising God. And all the
people saw him walking about and praising
God, And they recognized him as the
man who usually sat [begging] for alms at
the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they
were filled with wonder and amazement
(bewilderment, consternation) over what
had occurred to him.
