11‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet, we wipe off as a testimony against you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God is near.’11We're wiping off your town's dust that clings to our feet in protest against you! But realize this: the kingdom of God is near!'

Tell her to help me!”40But Martha was worrying about all the things she had to do, so she came to him and asked, "Lord, you do care that my sister has left me to do the work all by myself, don't you? Then tell her to help me."
