Matthew 10:7-13

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁷ As you go, proclaim the good news, ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’^{[a] 8} Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers,^[b] cast out demons. You received without payment; give without payment. ⁹ Take no gold, or silver, or copper in your belts, ¹⁰ no bag for your journey, or two tunics, or sandals, or a staff; for laborers deserve their food. ¹¹ Whatever town or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you leave. ¹² As you enter the house, greet it. ¹³ If the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.
