Matthew 10:5-15 - Jesus Sends Out The Twelve Apostles

⁵ These twelve Jesus sent forth, having charged them, saying, "Go not into any way of the gentiles, and enter not into a city of the Samaritans; ⁶ but go ye rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. ⁷ And, while going, preach, saying, 'The Kingdom of Heaven has come nigh.' ⁸ Heal the sick; raise the dead; cleanse the lepers; cast oat demons; freely ye received, freely give. ⁹ Procure neither gold, nor silver, nor brass, for your girdles; ¹⁰ nor wallet for your journey, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor a staff; for the laborer is worthy of his food.

¹¹ "And into whatsoever city or village ye enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there abide till ye go forth. ¹² And, as ye are coming into the house, salute it: ¹³ and, if, indeed, the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it; but, if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. ¹⁴ And, whosoever does not receive you, nor hear your words, as ye are going forth out of that house or city, shake off the dust, of your feet. ¹⁵ Verily I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.
