Matteo 10
La Nuova Diodati
10 Poi, chiamati a sé i suoi dodici discepoli, diede loro autorità sopra gli spiriti immondi per scacciarli e per guarire qualunque malattia e qualunque infermità.
2 Ora i nomi dei dodici apostoli sono questi: il primo Simone detto Pietro e Andrea suo fratello Giacomo di Zebedeo e Giovanni suo fratello
3 Filippo e Bartolomeo; Tommaso e Matteo il pubblicano, Giacomo di Alfeo e Lebbeo, soprannominato Taddeo;
4 Simone il Cananeo e Giuda Iscariota, quello che poi lo tradí.
5 Questi sono i dodici che Gesú inviò dopo aver dato loro questi ordini: «Non andate tra i gentili e non entrate in alcuna città dei Samaritani,
6 ma andate piuttosto alle pecore perdute della casa d'Israele,
7 Andate e predicate, dicendo: "il regno dei cieli è vicino",
8 Guarite gli infermi, mondate i lebbrosi, risuscitate i morti, scacciate i demoni; gratuitamente avete ricevuto, gratuitamente date.
9 Non fate provvista di oro, né di argento né di denaro nelle vostre cinture,
10 né di sacca da viaggio, né di due tuniche, né di calzari, né di bastone, perché l'operaio è degno del suo nutrimento.
11 Ora, in qualunque città o villaggio entrate, informatevi se vi sia qualcuno degno e lí rimanete fino alla vostra partenza,
12 E quando entrate nella casa, datele il vostro saluto,
13 E se quella è degna, venga la vostra pace su di essa; ma, se non è degna, la vostra pace ritorni a voi.
14 E se qualcuno non vi riceve e non ascolta le vostre parole, uscendo da quella casa o da quella città, scuotete la polvere dai vostri piedi,
15 Vi dico in verità che, nel giorno del giudizio, il paese di Sodoma e di Gomorra sarà trattato con piú tolleranza di quella città.
16 Ecco, io vi mando come pecore in mezzo ai lupi; siate dunque prudenti come serpenti e semplici come colombe.
17 Ma guardatevi dagli uomini, perché vi trascineranno davanti ai loro sinedri, e vi flagelleranno nelle loro sinagoghe,
18 E sarete condotti davanti ai governatori e davanti ai re, per causa mia, per dare testimonianza a loro e ai gentili.
19 Quando essi vi metteranno nelle loro mani, non preoccupatevi di come parlerete o di che cosa dovrete dire; perché in quella stessa ora vi sarà dato ciò che dovrete dire;
20 poiché non sarete voi a parlare, ma lo Spirito del Padre vostro che parla in voi.
21 Ora il fratello consegnerà a morte il fratello e il padre il figlio; e i figli insorgeranno contro i genitori e li faranno morire.
22 E sarete odiati da tutti a causa del mio nome; ma chi avrà perseverato fino alla fine, sarà salvato,
23 Ora, quando vi perseguiteranno in una città, fuggite a in un'altra, perché in verità vi dico, che non avrete finito di percorrere le città d'Israele, prima che venga il Figlio dell'uomo.
24 Il discepolo non è da piú del maestro, né il servo da piú del suo signore,
25 Basta al discepolo di essere come il suo maestro e al servo come il suo padrone. Se hanno chiamato il padrone di casa Beelzebub, quanto piú chiameranno cosí quelli di casa sua!
26 Non li temete dunque, poiché non c'è nulla di nascosto che non debba essere rivelato e nulla di segreto che non debba essere conosciuto.
27 Quello che io vi dico nelle tenebre, ditelo nella luce, e ciò che udite dettovi all'orecchio, predicatelo sui tetti.
28 E non temete coloro che uccidono il corpo, ma non possono uccidere l'anima; temete piuttosto colui che può far perire l'anima e il corpo nella Geenna.
29 Non si vendono forse due passeri per un soldo? Eppure neanche uno di loro cade a terra senza il volere del Padre vostro.
30 Ma quanto a voi, perfino i capelli del vostro capo sono tutti contati.
31 Non temete dunque; voi siete da piú di molti passeri.
32 Chiunque perciò mi riconoscerà, davanti agli uomini, io pure lo riconoscerò davanti al Padre mio che è nei cieli.
33 Ma chiunque mi rinnegherà davanti agli uomini, io pure lo rinnegherò davanti al Padre mio che è nei cieli».
34 «Non pensate che io sia venuto a mettere pace sulla terra; non sono venuto a mettervi la pace, ma la spada.
35 Perché io sono venuto a mettere disaccordo tra figlio e padre tra figlia e madre, tra nuora e suocera,
36 e i nemici dell'uomo saranno quelli di casa sua.
37 Chi ama padre o madre piú di me, non è degno di me; e chi ama figlio o figlia piú di me, non è degno di me.
38 E chi non prende la sua croce e non viene dietro a me, non è degno di me.
39 Chi avrà trovato la sua vita, la perderà; ma chi avrà perduto la sua vita per causa mia, la ritroverà.
40 Chi riceve voi, riceve me; e chi riceve me, riceve colui che mi ha mandato.
41 Chi riceve un profeta nel nome di un profeta, riceverà un premio da profeta; e chi riceve un giusto nel nome di un giusto, riceverà un premio da giusto.
42 E chiunque darà da bere anche un solo bicchiere d'acqua fredda a uno di questi piccoli nel nome di un discepolo, in verità vi dico, che egli non perderà affatto il suo premio»,

Jesus Sends Out the Twelve(A)(B)(C)(D)(E)
10 Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits(F) and to heal every disease and sickness.(G)
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.(H)
5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.(I) 6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.(J) 7 As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven(K) 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.
9 “Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts(L)— 10 no bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep.(M) 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.(N) 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.(O) 15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah(P) on the day of judgment(Q) than for that town.(R)
16 “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves.(S) Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.(T) 17 Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils(U) and be flogged in the synagogues.(V) 18 On my account you will be brought before governors and kings(W) 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.(X) At that time you will be given what to say, 20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father(Y) speaking through you.
21 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents(Z) and have them put to death.(AA) 22 You will be hated by everyone because of me,(AB) but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.(AC) 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.(AD)
24 “The student is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his master.(AE) 25 It is enough for students to be like their teachers, and servants like their masters. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul,(AF) how much more the members of his household!
26 “So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.(AG) 27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. 28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One(AH) who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[b] 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.(AI) 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.(AJ)
32 “Whoever acknowledges me before others,(AK) I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. 33 But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.(AL)
34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn
“‘a man against his father,
a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law(AM)—
36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’[c](AN)
37 “Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.(AO) 38 Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me.(AP) 39 Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.(AQ)
40 “Anyone who welcomes you welcomes me,(AR) and anyone who welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me.(AS) 41 Whoever welcomes a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever welcomes a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward. 42 And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my disciple, truly I tell you, that person will certainly not lose their reward.”(AT)

The Twelve Apostles(A)
10 And (B)when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease. 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, (C)who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and [a]Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4 (D)Simon the [b]Cananite, and Judas (E)Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
Sending Out the Twelve(F)
5 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: (G)“Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of (H)the Samaritans. 6 (I)But go rather to the (J)lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 (K)And as you go, preach, saying, (L)‘The kingdom of heaven [c]is at hand.’ 8 Heal the sick, [d]cleanse the lepers, [e]raise the dead, cast out demons. (M)Freely you have received, freely give. 9 (N)Provide neither gold nor silver nor (O)copper in your money belts, 10 nor bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor staffs; (P)for a worker is worthy of his food.
11 (Q)“Now whatever city or town you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and stay there till you go out. 12 And when you go into a household, greet it. 13 (R)If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. (S)But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you. 14 (T)And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, (U)shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Assuredly, I say to you, (V)it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!
Persecutions Are Coming(W)
16 (X)“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. (Y)Therefore be wise as serpents and (Z)harmless[f] as doves. 17 But beware of men, for (AA)they will deliver you up to councils and (AB)scourge you in their synagogues. 18 (AC)You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. 19 (AD)But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For (AE)it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; 20 (AF)for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
21 (AG)“Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. 22 And (AH)you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. (AI)But he who endures to the end will be saved. 23 (AJ)When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have (AK)gone through the cities of Israel (AL)before the Son of Man comes.
24 (AM)“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If (AN)they have called the master of the house [g]Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household! 26 Therefore do not fear them. (AO)For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.
Jesus Teaches the Fear of God(AP)
27 “Whatever I tell you in the dark, (AQ)speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. 28 (AR)And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather (AS)fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in [h]hell. 29 Are not two (AT)sparrows sold for a [i]copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. 30 (AU)But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
Confess Christ Before Men(AV)
32 (AW)“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, (AX)him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. 33 (AY)But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.
Christ Brings Division(AZ)
34 (BA)“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to (BB)‘set[j] a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; 36 and (BC)‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ 37 (BD)He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. 38 (BE)And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. 39 (BF)He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.
A Cup of Cold Water(BG)
40 (BH)“He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. 41 (BI)He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward. 42 (BJ)And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.”
