Luke 10:17-20 CEV
When the seventy-two followers returned, they were excited and said, "Lord, even the demons obeyed when we spoke in your name!" (18) Jesus told them: I saw Satan fall from heaven like a flash of lightning. (Satan fell from heaven in that Jesus's human followers now had authority and/or protection from his demon servants on earth.) (19) I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions and to defeat the power of your enemy Satan. Nothing can harm you. (20) But don't be happy because evil spirits obey you. Be happy that your names are written in heaven!

Luke 10:17-20 GNB
The seventy-two men came back in great joy. "Lord," they said, "even the demons obeyed us when we gave them a command in your name!" (18) Jesus answered them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. (Satan fell from heaven in that Jesus's human followers now had authority and/or protection from his demon servants on earth.) (19) Listen! I have given you authority, so that you can walk on snakes and scorpions and overcome all the power of the Enemy, and nothing will hurt you. (20) But don't be glad because the evil spirits obey you; rather be glad because your names are written in heaven."

Luke 10:17-20 GW
The 70 disciples came back very happy. They said, "Lord, even demons obey us when we use the power and authority of your name!" (18) Jesus said to them, "I watched Satan fall from heaven like lightning. (Satan fell from heaven in that Jesus's human followers now had authority and/or protection from his demon servants on earth.) (19) I have given you the authority to trample snakes and scorpions and to destroy the enemy's power. Nothing will hurt you. (20) However, don't be happy that evil spirits obey you. Be happy that your names are written in heaven."

Luke 10:17-20 ESV
The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!" (18) And he said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. (Satan fell from heaven in that Jesus's human followers now had authority and/or protection from his demon servants on earth.) (19) Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you. (20) Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."
