Cure the sick, cleanse the leprous, rouse the dead, cast out demons; as a gift ye have received, as a gift give. Provide not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses; Nor wallet for the way, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor rod: for the laborer is worthy of his food. And to whatever city or town ye should come in, examine who in it is worthy; and there remain till ye go forth. And entering into a house, do ye greet it. And if the house should be worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it be not worthy let your peace return to you. And whoever should not receive you, nor hear your words, coming out of that house or that city, shake off the cloud of the dust of your feet.

And ye shalt be brought before leaders and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations. And when they deliver you up, have no care how or what ye should speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak. For ye yourselves are not speaking, but the spirit of your father speaking in you.

But whoever should deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father, him in the heavens. Think not that I came to cast peace upon earth; I came not to cast peace, but a sword.

He loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me; and he loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me. And whoever takes not his cross, and follows after me, is not worthy of me. He finding his soul shall lose it; and he having lost his soul for my sake shall find it. He receiving you, receives me; and he receiving me, receives him sending me. He receiving a prophet in a prophet's name, shall receive a prophet's reward; and he receiving the just in the name of the just, shall take the reward of the just And whoever should give to drink one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

This proclamation I set before thee, child Timothy, according to the gifts of prophecy led before upon thee, that thou in them mightest war the good warfare; Having faith, and a good consciousness; which some having rejected concerning faith suffered shipwreck: Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they should not be taught to blaspheme.
An elder shouldest thou not reprove, but beseech as a father; the younger as brethren; The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity. Honour widows, truly widows. read more.
And if any widow have children or descendants, let them learn first to be pious to their own house, and to return recompenses to their progenitors: for this is good and acceptable before God. And she truly a widow, and forsaken, has hoped in God, and remains in supplications and prayers night and day. And she living luxuriously is dead, living. And these things proclaim, that they might be irreprehensible. And if any for his own, and chiefly for his own household provide not, he has denied the faith, and is worse than the unbelieving. Let not a widow be chosen less than sixty years, having been wife of one man, Testified of in good works; if she have brought up children, if she lodged strangers, if she washed the feet of the holy, if she relieved the pressed, if she followed every good work. And the younger widows reject: for when they conduct themselves arrogantly against Christ, they wish to marry: Having judgment, for they put away the first faith. And at the same time also they learn to be idle, going round about the houses; and not only idle, but also indulging in idle talk, and occupied with unnecessary things, speaking things not becoming. I wish therefore the younger to marry, to bear children, to rule the house, to give no occasion to him opposing for reproach. For already have some turned aside after Satan. If any man or woman faithful have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be loaded; that it may relieve the truly widows. Let the elders having presided well be deemed worthy of double honour, chiefly they being wearied in word and doctrine. For the writing says, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox grinding. And, The laborer worthy of his hire. Against an elder receive not an accusation from without, except from two or three witnesses. Them having sinned rebuke before all, that the rest also have fear. I call to witness before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that thou watch these things without preference, doing nothing by bending. Put hands swiftly upon none, nor participate in others' sins: keep thyself pure.
