Matthew 10:6-15

English Standard Version

^6 (A)but go rather to ^(B)the lost sheep of ^(C)the house of Israel. ⁷ And proclaim as you go, saying, ^(D)‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’^{[a] 8 (E)}Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers,^[b] cast out demons. ^(F)You received without paying; give without pay. ^9 (G)Acquire no gold or silver or copper for your belts, ¹⁰ no bag for your journey, or two tunics^[c] or sandals or a staff, for ^(H)the laborer deserves his food. ¹¹ And whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy in it and stay there until you depart. ¹² As you enter the house, ^(I)greet it. ¹³ And if the house is ^(J)worthy, let ^(K)your peace come upon it, but if it is not worthy, let ^(L)your peace return to you. ¹⁴ And if anyone will not receive you or listen to your words, ^(M)shake off the dust from your feet when you leave that house or town. ¹⁵ Truly, I say to you, ^(N)it will be more bearable on the day of judgment for ^(O)the land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town.
