Luke 10:38-42

Martha and Mary

38 Now as they were traveling along, He entered a village; and a woman named ^aMartha welcomed Him into her home. 39 And she had a sister called ^aMary, who was also ^bseated at the Lord’s feet, listening to His word. 40 But ^aMartha was distracted with ¹all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the ²preparations alone? Then tell her to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered and said to her, “^aMartha, Martha, you are ^bworried and bothered about so many things, 42 ^abut only one thing is necessary, for ^bMary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”
