10. But whenever you go into a town and they do not receive and accept and welcome you, go out into its streets and say,
11. Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we are wiping off against you; yet know and understand this: the kingdom of God has come near you.
12. I tell you, it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that town. [Gen. 19:24-28.]
13. Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty miracles performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14. However, it shall be more tolerable in the judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.
15. And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted unto heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades (the regions of the dead).
16. He who hears and heeds you [disciples] hears and heeds Me; and he who slights and rejects you slights and rejects Me; and he who slights and rejects Me slights and rejects Him who sent Me.
17. The seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name!
18. And He said to them, I saw Satan falling like a lightning [flash] from heaven.
