9:35 Then Jesus went throughout all the towns 4 and villages, teaching in their synagogues, 5 preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and sickness. 6 9:36 When 7 he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were bewildered and helpless, 8 like sheep without a shepherd. 9:37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. 9:38 Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest 9 to send out 10 workers into his harvest.”
