Stay in [b]that house, eating and drinking [c]what they provide; for (A)the laborer is deserving of his wages. Do not move from house to house. Whatever city you enter and they receive you, (B)eat what is served to you; and heal those in it who are sick, and say to them, ‘(C)The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ 10 But whatever city you enter and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, 11 (D)Even the dust of your city which clings to our feet we wipe off in protest against you; yet [d]be sure of this, that (E)the kingdom of God has come near.’
