heal ye sick men, raise ye dead men, cleanse ye mesels [cleanse ye leprous men], cast ye out devils; freely ye have taken, freely give ye.
9
Do not ye wield gold, nor silver, nor money in your girdles,
10
not a scrip in the way, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor a staff; for a workman is worthy his meat. [neither a scrip in the way, neither two coats, neither shoes, neither a rod; for a workman is worth his meat.]
11
Into whatever city or castle ye shall enter, ask ye who therein is worthy, and there dwell ye, till ye go out.
12
And when ye go into an house, greet ye it, and say [Forsooth ye entering into an house, greet ye, or salute ye, it, saying], Peace to this house.
13
And if that house be worthy, your peace shall come on it; but if that house be not worthy, your peace shall turn again to you.
14
And whoever receiveth not you, nor heareth your words, go ye forth from that house or city, and sprinkle off the dust of your feet. [+And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, ye going out from that house, or city, smite away the dust from your feet.]
15
Truly I say to you, it shall be more sufferable to the land of men of Sodom and of Gomorrha [of Sodom and Gomorrha] in the day of judgment, than to that city.
16
Lo! I send you as sheep in the middle of wolves; therefore be ye sly as serpents, and simple as doves. [+Lo! I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves; therefore be ye prudent, either wise/wary, or wise before, as serpents, and simple as doves.]
17
But be ye ware of men, for they shall take you in councils, and they shall beat you in their synagogues;
18
and to mayors, or presidents, and to kings, ye shall be led for me, in witnessing to them, and to heathen men.
