35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages,
teaching in their synagogues, preaching the
good news of the kingdom and healing
every disease and sickness.
36 When he saw the crowds, he had
compassion on them, because they were
harassed and helpless, like sheep
without a shepherd.
37 Then he said to his disciples,
“The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.
38 Ask the Lord of the harvest,
therefore, to send out workers
into his harvest field.”
