^4 (A)Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and ^(B)greet no one along the road.

Supplies for the Road

^35 (A)And He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?”

So they said, “Nothing.”

²⁹ Then he said to Gehazi, ^(A)“Get^[a] yourself ready, and take my staff in your hand, and be on your way. If you meet anyone, ^(B)do not greet him; and if anyone greets you, do not answer him; but ^(C)lay my staff on the face of the child.”

^4 (A)Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and ^(B)greet no one along the road. ^5 (C)But whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ ⁶ And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you. ^7 (D)And remain in the same house, ^(E)eating and drinking such things as they give, for ^(F)the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house. ⁸ Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you. ^9 (G)And heal the sick there, and say to them, ^(H)‘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 (I)‘The very dust of your city which clings to ^[a]us we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.’ ^12 [b]But I say to you that ^(J)it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that city.

⁸ He commanded them to take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts— ⁹ but ^(A)to wear sandals, and not to put on two tunics.

^10 (B)Also He said to them, “In whatever place you enter a house, stay there till you depart from that place. ^11 (C)And ^[a]whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, ^(D)shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. ^[b]Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!”

²⁴ Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, “Drive, and go forward; do not slacken the pace for me unless I tell you.”

⁸ And David said to Ahimelech, “Is there not here on hand a spear or a sword? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king’s business required haste.”

^59 (A)Then He said to another, “Follow Me.”

But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

⁶⁰ Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God.”
