SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:7
Y posad en aquella misma casa, comiendo y bebiendo lo que os dieren; porque el obrero digno es de su salario. No os pasis de casa en casa.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 10:7
Verse 7. The labourer is worthy] See on Matt. x. 8, 12. Go not from house to house.] See on Matt. x. 11. It would be a great offense among the Hindoos if a guest, after being made welcome at a house, were to leave it and go to another.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 7. And in the same house remain , etc.] Where the sons of peace are, and the peace rests, and into which you are invited, and kindly received and used: eating and drinking such things as they give ; or rather, such things as are with them, as the Vulgate Latin renders it; or of that which is theirs, as the Syriac version; all one, and with as much freedom, as if they were your own; the reason follows, for the labourer is worthy of his hire ; what you eat and drink is your due; what you ought to have; your diet is a debt, and not a gratuity; (See Gill on Matthew 10:10) go not from house to house ; as if fickle and inconstant, as if not satisfied with your lodging and entertainment, and as seeking out for other and better, or as if burdensome where they were; (See Gill on Matthew 10:11). The Jews have a proverb, expressing the inconvenience and expensiveness, and the danger of moving from place to place: he that goes, tybl tybm , from house to house, (loses his) shirt, (i.e. comes to distress and poverty,) from place to place (his) life f342 ; or he is in great danger of losing his life.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-16 - Christ sent the seventy disciples, two and two, that they migh strengthen and encourage one another. The ministry of the gospel call men to receive Christ as a Prince and a Saviour; and he will surel come in the power of his Spirit to all places whither he sends his faithful servants. But the doom of those who receive the grace of God in vain, will be very fearful Those who despise the faithful minister of Christ, who think meanly of them, and look scornfully upon them will be reckoned as despisers of God and Christ.

7. The workman is worthy, etc. See on Matt. x. 10.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
10:7 {In that same house} (en autei tei oikiai). Literally, in the house itself, not "in the same house" (en tei autei oikiai), a different construction. A free rendering of the common Lukan idiom is, "in that very house." {Eating} (esqontes). An old poetic verb esqw for esqiw that survives in late Greek. {Such things as they give} (ta par' autwn). "The things from them." {For the laborer is worthy of his hire} (axios gar ho ergates tou misqou autou). In #Mt 10:10 we have tes trofes autou (his food). #1Ti 5:18 has this saying quoted as scripture. That is not impossible if Luke wrote by A.D. 62. Paul there however may quote only #De 25:4 as scripture and get this quotation either from #Lu 10:7 or from a proverbial saying of Jesus. It is certainly not a real objection against the Pauline authorship of First Timothy. {Go not from house to house} (me metabainete ex oikias eis oikian). As a habit, me and the present imperative, and so avoid waste of time with such rounds of invitations as would come.
