A Cup of Cold Water

40 “The one who welcomes you welcomes me,(A) and the one who welcomes me welcomes him who sent me.(B) 41 Anyone who welcomes a prophet(C) because he is a prophet[a] will receive a prophet’s reward. And anyone who welcomes a righteous person because he’s righteous[b] will receive a righteous person’s reward. 42 And whoever gives(D) even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple,[c](E) truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”

They have testified to your love before the church.(A) You will do well to send them on their journey(B) in a manner worthy of God,(C) since they set out for the sake of the Name,(D) accepting nothing from pagans.[a](E) Therefore, we ought to support such people so that we can be coworkers with the truth.
