Luke 10:36-42 ▼

36 |Of these three men, who do you think was a neighbor to the man who was attacked by robbers?|

37 The expert said, |The one who was kind enough to help him.| Jesus told him, |Go and imitate his example!|

38 As they were traveling along, Jesus went into a village. A woman named Martha welcomed him into her home.

39 She had a sister named Mary. Mary sat at the Lord's feet and listened to him talk.

40 But Martha was upset about all the work she had to do. So she asked, |Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work all by myself? Tell her to help me.|

41 The Lord answered her, |Martha, Martha! You worry and fuss about a lot of things.

42 There's only one thing you need [worth worrying about]. Mary has made the right choice, and that one thing will not be taken away from her.|
