10:1 And when he had called unto [him] his twelve disciples, he
gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and
to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.
10:2 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;
10:3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican;
James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was
Thaddaeus;
10:4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed
him.
10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying,
Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into [any] city of the
Samaritans enter ye not:
10:6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at
hand.
10:8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast
out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
10:9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
10:10 Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, neither
shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
10:11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire
who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.
10:12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.
10:13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it:
but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words,
when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of
your feet.
10:15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the
land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that
city.
10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves:
be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
10:17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the
councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;
10:18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my
sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
10:19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what
ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what
ye shall speak.
10:20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your
Father which speaketh in you.
10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death,
and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against
[their] parents, and cause them to be put to death.
10:22 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake:
but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
10:23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into
another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over
the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.
10:24 The disciple is not above [his] master, nor the servant
above his lord.
10:25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master,
and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of
the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his
household?
10:26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered,
that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
10:27 What I tell you in darkness, [that] speak ye in light:
and what ye hear in the ear, [that] preach ye upon the housetops.
10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able
to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy
both soul and body in hell.
10:29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them
shall not fall on the ground without your Father.
10:30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
10:31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many
sparrows.
10:32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will
I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also
deny before my Father which is in heaven.
10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came
not to send peace, but a sword.
10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father,
and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law
against her mother in law.
10:36 And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household.
10:37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not
worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is
not worthy of me.
10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me,
is not worthy of me.
10:39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that
loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
10:40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth
me receiveth him that sent me.
10:41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet
shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a
righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a
righteous man's reward.
10:42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these
little ones a cup of cold [water] only in the name of a disciple,
verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
