²¹ Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you!^(A) As the Father has sent me,^(B) I am sending you.”^(C)

²⁰ Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.”^(A)

¹⁷ For God did not send his Son into the world^(A) to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.^(B)

⁸ But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;^(A) and you will be my witnesses^(B) in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,^(C) and to the ends of the earth.”^(D)

¹⁵ He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.^{(A) 16} Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.^{(B) 17} And these signs^(C) will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons;^(D) they will speak in new tongues;^{(E) 18} they will pick up snakes^(F) with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on^(G) sick people, and they will get well.”

⁴⁷ and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name^(A) to all nations,^(B) beginning at Jerusalem.^{(C) 48} You are witnesses^(D) of these things. ⁴⁹ I am going to send you what my Father has promised;^(E) but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

¹⁸ Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.^{(A) 19} Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,^(B) baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,^{(C) 20} and teaching^(D) them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you^(E) always, to the very end of the age.”^(F)

² And the things you have heard me say^(A) in the presence of many witnesses^(B) entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.
