Matthew 10:5-15 - Jesus Sends Out The Twelve Apostles
5 These twelve Jesus sent on a mission, after giving them their instructions: "Go not," He said, "among the Gentiles, and enter no Samaritan town; 6 but, instead of that, go to the lost sheep of Israel's race. 7 And as you go, preach and say, 'The Kingdom of the Heavens is close at hand.' 8 Cure the sick, raise the dead to life, cleanse lepers, drive out demons: you have received without payment, give without payment. 9 "Provide no gold, nor even silver nor copper to carry in your pockets; 10 no bag for your journey, nor change of linen, nor shoes, nor stick; for the labourer deserves his food.
11 "Whatever town or village you enter, inquire for some good man; and make his house your home till you leave the place. 12 When you enter the house, salute it; 13 and if the house deserves it, the peace you invoke shall come upon it. If not, your peace shall return to you. 14 And whoever refuses to receive you or even to listen to your Message, as you leave that house or town, shake off the very dust from your feet. 15 I solemnly tell you that it will be more endurable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of Judgement than for that town.
