Matthew 9:35-37

American Standard Version

³⁵ And Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the ^[a]gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness. ³⁶ But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were distressed and scattered, as sheep not having a shepherd. ³⁷ Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few.
