Exodus 19:2-8
New International Version
2 After they set out from Rephidim,(A) they entered the Desert of Sinai, and Israel camped there in the desert in front of the mountain.(B)
3 Then Moses went up to God,(C) and the Lord called(D) to him from the mountain and said, “This is what you are to say to the descendants of Jacob and what you are to tell the people of Israel: 4 ‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt,(E) and how I carried you on eagles’ wings(F) and brought you to myself.(G) 5 Now if you obey me fully(H) and keep my covenant,(I) then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.(J) Although the whole earth(K) is mine, 6 you[a] will be for me a kingdom of priests(L) and a holy nation.’(M) These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.”
7 So Moses went back and summoned the elders(N) of the people and set before them all the words the Lord had commanded him to speak.(O) 8 The people all responded together, “We will do everything the Lord has said.”(P) So Moses brought their answer back to the Lord.

Peace and Hope
5 Therefore, since we have been justified(A) through faith,(B) we[a] have peace(C) with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,(D) 2 through whom we have gained access(E) by faith into this grace in which we now stand.(F) And we[b] boast in the hope(G) of the glory of God. 3 Not only so, but we[c] also glory in our sufferings,(H) because we know that suffering produces perseverance;(I) 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope(J) does not put us to shame, because God’s love(K) has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,(L) who has been given to us.
6 You see, at just the right time,(M) when we were still powerless,(N) Christ died for the ungodly.(O) 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.(P)

Matthew 9:35-10:8
New International Version
The Workers Are Few
35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness.(A) 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them,(B) because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.(C) 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest(D) is plentiful but the workers are few.(E) 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
Jesus Sends Out the Twelve(F)(G)(H)(I)(J)
10 Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits(K) and to heal every disease and sickness.(L)
2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.(M)
5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.(N) 6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.(O) 7 As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven(P) has come near.’ 8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy,[a] drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

Matthew 10:9-23
New International Version
9 “Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts(A)— 10 no bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep.(B) 11 Whatever town or village you enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave. 12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting.(C) 13 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you. 14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.(D) 15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah(E) on the day of judgment(F) than for that town.(G)
16 “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves.(H) Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.(I) 17 Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils(J) and be flogged in the synagogues.(K) 18 On my account you will be brought before governors and kings(L) as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. 19 But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it.(M) At that time you will be given what to say, 20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father(N) speaking through you.
21 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents(O) and have them put to death.(P) 22 You will be hated by everyone because of me,(Q) but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.(R) 23 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.(S)
