Mark 6:7-13
International Standard Version
Jesus Sends Out the Twelve(A)
7 He called the Twelve and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits. 8 He instructed them to take nothing along on the trip except a walking stick—no bread, no traveling bag, nothing in their moneybag. 9 They could wear sandals but not take along an extra shirt.[a] 10 He told them repeatedly, “Whenever you go into a home, stay there until you leave that place. 11 If any place will not welcome you and the people[b] refuse to listen to you, when you leave, shake its dust off your feet as a testimony against them.” 12 So they went and preached that people[c] should repent. 13 They also kept driving out many demons and anointing with oil many who were sick, and healing them.

Lexham English Bible
7 And he summoned the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. 8 And he commanded them that they take along nothing for the journey except only a staff—no bread, no traveler’s bag, no money in their[a] belts— 9 but to put on sandals and not to wear two tunics. 10 And he said to them, “Whenever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there. 11 And whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, as you[b] go out from there, shake off the dust that is on your feet for a testimony against them.” 12 And they went out and[c] proclaimed that people[d] should repent. 13 And they were expelling many demons and anointing many sick people with olive oil and healing them.[e]
