Matthew 10:41

On Rewards

⁴⁰ He who gives honour to you gives honour to me; and he who gives honour to me gives honour to him who sent me. ⁴¹ He who gives honour to a prophet, in the name of a prophet, will be given a prophet's reward; and he who gives honour to an upright man, in the name of an upright man, will be given an upright man's reward. ⁴² And whoever gives to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will not go without his reward.
