      1. Matthew 9:35-38 35  Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and curing every disease and every sickness. 36  When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for 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 laborers are few;  38  therefore ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”

            1. Matthew 9:9-13, 18-26 9  As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax-collection station, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he got up and followed him. 10  And as he sat at dinner [ a ]  in the house, many tax collectors and sinners came and were sitting [ b ]  with Jesus and his disciples.  11  When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”  12  But when he heard this, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.  13  Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous but sinners.” . . . 18  While he was saying these things to them, suddenly a leader came in and knelt before him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”  19  And Jesus got up and followed him, with his disciples.  20  Then suddenly a woman who had been suffering from a flow of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak,  21  for she was saying to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be made well.”  22  Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, “Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that moment.  23  When Jesus came to the leader’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion,  24  he said, “Go away, for the girl is not dead but sleeping.” And they laughed at him.  25  But when the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took her by the hand, and the girl got up.  26  And the report of this spread through all of that district.
