Matthew 9:30-38
-
30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.
-
31 But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
-
32 As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.
-
33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.
-
34 But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.
-
35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
-
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
-
37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
-
38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
