every disease and every sickness.
010:002 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these.
The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother;
James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
010:003 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector;
James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, whose surname was{NU
omits "Lebbaeus, whose surname was"} Thaddaeus;
010:004 Simon the Canaanite; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
010:005 Jesus sent these twelve out, and charged them, saying,
"Don't go among the Gentiles, and don't enter into any city
of the Samaritans.
010:006 Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
010:007 As you go, preach, saying, 'The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!'
010:008 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers{TR adds ", raise the dead"},
and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
010:009 Don't take any gold, nor silver, nor brass in your money belts.
010:010 Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor shoes,
nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
010:011 Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it
is worthy; and stay there until you go on.
010:012 As you enter into the household, greet it.
010:013 If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it,
but if it isn't worthy, let your peace return to you.
010:014 Whoever doesn't receive you, nor hear your words, as you go out
of that house or that city, shake off the dust from your feet.
010:015 Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land
of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
010:016 "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves.
Therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
010:017 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to councils,
and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
010:018 Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake,
for a testimony to them and to the nations.
010:019 But when they deliver you up, don't be anxious how or what you
will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
010:020 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father
who speaks in you.
010:021 "Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child.
Children will rise up against parents, and cause them to be
put to death.
010:022 You will be hated by all men for my name's sake, but he who
endures to the end will be saved.
010:023 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next,
for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through
the cities of Israel, until the Son of Man has come.
010:024 "A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
010:025 It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher,
and the servant like his lord.
