And in the same house tarry still, eating and drinking such as they have. For the laborer is worthy of his reward. Go not from house to house:

He is like a man which built a house: and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock. When the waters arose, the flood beat upon that house, and could not move it. For it was grounded upon a rock.

But he that heareth and doth not, is like a man, that without foundation built a house upon the earth, against which, the flood did beat: and it fell by and by. And the fall of that house was great."

Into whatsoever house ye enter in, first say, Peace be to this house.

This shall ye understand, that if the good man of the house knew what hour the thief would have come, he would surely have watched: and not suffer his house to be broken up.

saying unto them, "It is written, 'My house is the house of prayer.' But ye have made it a den of thieves."
