Matthew 9:24-38 ▼

24 He says to them, Give way; for the girl is not dead but sleeps; and they mocked him.

25 But when the crowd was driven forth, having entered, he seized her hand, and the little girl was awakened.

26 And this report went forth into that whole land.

27 And Jesus passing from thence, two blind ones followed him, crying out and saying, Commiserate us, O son of David.

28 And having come into the house, the blind came to him: and Jesus says to them, Believe ye that I can do this? They say to him, Yes, Lord.

29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it to you.

30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus threatened them, saying, See, let none know.

31 But they, having gone out, divulged it in that, whole land.

32 And they having gone, behold they brought to him a man dumb, possessed with an evil spirit.

33 And the demon being cast out, the dumb, spake, and the crowd admired, saying, It was never so brought to light in Israel.

34 But the Pharisees said, By the chief of demons he casts out demons.

35 And Jesus went about all the cities and towns, teaching in their assemblies, and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every weakness in the people.

36 And having seen the crowds, he felt compassion for them, for they were relaxed and dispersed, as sheep not having a shepherd.

37 Then he says to his disciples, Truly the harvest much, but the laborers few.

38 Implore therefore the Lord of the harvest, so that he might draw forth laborers into his harvest.
