Luke 9:1-8

1 Then calling the Twelve together He conferred on them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases;

2 and sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to cure the sick.

3 And He commanded them, "Take nothing for your journey; neither stick nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have an extra under garment.

4 Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.

5 Wherever they refuse to receive you, as you leave that town shake off the very dust from your feet as a protest against them."

6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.

7 Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was going on; and he was bewildered because of its being said by some that John had come back to life,

8 by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
