6
But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7
And as ye go, proclaim, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons: freely ye have received, freely give.
9
Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses;
10
Nor bag for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor a staff: for the workman is worthy of his food.
11
And into whatever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there abide till ye go thence.
12
And when ye come into a house, salute it.
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.
14
And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart from that house, or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15
Verily, I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah, in the day of judgment, than for that city.
16
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
