Luke 10:2-12

2 And He addressed them thus: "The harvest is abundant, but the reapers are few: therefore entreat the Owner of the harvest to send out more reapers into His fields. And now go.

3 Remember that I am sending you out as lambs into the midst of wolves.

4 Carry no purse, bag, nor change of shoes; and salute no one on your way."

5 "Whatever house you enter, first say, `Peace be to this house!'

6 And if there is a lover of peace there, your peace shall rest upon it; otherwise come back upon you.

7 And in that same house stay, eating and drinking at their table; for the labourer deserves his wages. Do not move from one house to another.

8 "And whatever town you come to and they receive you, eat what they put before you.

9 Cure the sick in that town, and tell them, "`The Kingdom of God is now at your door.'

10 "But whatever town you come to and they will not receive you, go out into the broader streets and say,

11 "`The very dust of your town that hangs about us we wipe off as a protest. Only be sure of this, that the Kingdom of God is close at hand.'

12 "I tell you that it will be more endurable for Sodom on the great day than for that town.
