Matthew 10:1-15 - The Twelve Commissioned And Sent Out

¹ And having called to him his twelve disciples, he gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out and to heal every disease and every malady. ² Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; the first, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; ³ Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alpheus, and Lebbeus, whose surname was Thaddeus; ⁴ Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

⁵ These twelve Jesus sent forth, having commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into a city of the Samaritans enter not: ⁶ But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. ⁷ And as ye go, proclaim, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. ⁸ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. ⁹ Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses: Nor scrip for your journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor yet a staff: ¹⁰ for the workman is worthy of his maintenance.

¹¹ And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there abide till ye go thence. ¹² And when ye come into an house, salute it. And if the house be worthy, your peace shall come upon it; ¹³ but if it be not worthy, your peace shall return to you. ¹⁴ And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words; when ye go out of that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet. ¹⁵ Verily I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

⁷ And he calleth to him the twelve, and sent them forth by two and two, and gave them power over unclean spirits; ⁸ And commanded them to take nothing for the journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no mony in their purse; ⁹ But be shod with sandals, and not to put on two coats. ¹⁰ And he said to them, Wheresoever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place. ¹¹ And whosoever shall not receive you nor hear you, departing thence shake off the dust under your feet, for a testimony against them. Verily I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

¹² And they went out and preached, that men should repent. ¹³ And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick and healed them.

¹ And calling together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all devils and to cure diseases. ² And he sent them to preach the gospel of the kingdom, and to heal the sick. And said to them, Take nothing for your journey,

³ neither staves, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money: neither have two coats apiece. ⁴ And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide and thence depart. ⁵ And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them. ⁶ And they departed, and went thro' the towns preaching the Gospel and healing every where.
