And when he had called
unto him his
twelve
disciples
, he gave
them
power
against unclean
spirits
, to
cast
them
out
, and
to heal
all manner
of sickness
and
all manner
of disease
.
Now the names
of the twelve
apostles
are
these
; The first
, Simon
, who
is called
Peter
, and
Andrew
his
brother
; James
the son of
Zebedee
, and
John
his
brother
;
Philip, and
Bartholomew
; Thomas
, and
Matthew
the publican
; James
the son of
Alphaeus
, and
Lebbaeus
, whose surname was
Thaddaeus
;
Simon the Canaanite
, and
Judas
Iscariot
, who
also
betrayed
him
.
These twelve
Jesus
sent forth
, and commanded
them
, saying
, Go
not
into
the way
of the Gentiles
, and
into
any city
of the Samaritans
enter ye
not
:
But go
rather
to
the lost
sheep
of the house
of Israel
.
And as ye go
, preach
, saying
,
The kingdom
of heaven
is at hand
.
Heal the sick
, cleanse
the lepers
, raise
the dead
, cast out
devils
: freely
ye have received
, freely
give
.
Provide neither
gold
, nor
silver
, nor
brass
in
your
purses
,
Nor scrip
for
your journey
, neither
two
coats
, neither
shoes
, nor
yet staves
: for
the workman
is
worthy
of his
meat
.
And into
whatsoever
city
or
town
ye shall enter
, enquire
who
in
it
is
worthy
; and there
abide
till
ye go thence
.
And when ye come
into
an house
, salute
it
.
And if
the house
be
worthy
, let your
peace
come
upon
it
: but
if
it be
not
worthy
, let your
peace
return
to
you
.
And whosoever
shall
not
receive
you
, nor
hear
your
words
, when ye depart out
of that
house
or
city
, shake off
the dust
of your
feet
.
Verily I say
unto you
, It shall be
more tolerable
for the land
of Sodom
and
Gomorrha
in
the day
of judgment
, than
for that
city
.
Behold, I
send
you
forth
as
sheep
in
the midst
of wolves
: be ye
therefore
wise
as
serpents
, and
harmless
as
doves
.
But beware
of
men
: for
they will deliver
you
up
to
the councils
, and
they will scourge
you
in
their
synagogues
;
And ye shall be brought
before
governors
and
kings
for my
sake
, for
a testimony
against them
and
the Gentiles
.
But when
they deliver
you
up
, take
no
thought
how
or
what
ye shall speak
: for
it shall be given
you
in
that same
hour
what
ye shall speak
.
For it is
not
ye
that speak
, but
the Spirit
of your
Father
which
speaketh
in
you
.
And the brother
shall deliver up
the brother
to
death
, and
the father
the child
: and
the children
shall rise up
against
their parents
, and
cause
them
to be put to death
.
And ye shall
be hated
of
all
men for
my
name's sake
: but
he that
endureth
to
the end
shall be saved
.
But when
they persecute
you
in
this
city
, flee ye
into
another
: for
verily
I say
unto you
, Ye shall
not
have gone over
the cities
of Israel
, till
the Son
of man
be
come
.
The disciple is
not
above
his master
, nor
the servant
above
his
lord
.
It is enough for the disciple
that
he be
as
his
master
, and
the servant
as
his
lord
. If
they have called
the master of the house
Beelzebub
, how much
more
shall they call them of his
household
?
Fear them
not
therefore
: for
there is
nothing
covered
, that
shall
not
be revealed
; and
hid
, that
shall
not
be known
.
What I tell
you
in
darkness
, that speak ye
in
light
: and
what
ye hear
in
the ear
, that preach ye
upon
the housetops
.
And fear
not
them which
kill
the body
, but
are
not
able
to kill
the soul
: but
rather
fear
him which
is able
to destroy
both
soul
and
body
in
hell
.
Are not
two
sparrows
sold
for a farthing
? and
one
of
them
shall
not
fall
on
the ground
without
your
Father
.
But the very
hairs
of your
head
are
all
numbered
.
Fear ye not
therefore
, ye
are of more value
than many
sparrows
.
Whosoever therefore
shall confess
me
before
men
,
him
will I confess
also
before
my
Father
which
is in
heaven
.
But whosoever
shall
deny
me
before
men
, him
will I also
deny
before
my
Father
which
is in
heaven
.
Think not
that
I am come
to send
peace
on
earth
: I came
not
to send
peace
, but
a sword
.
For I am come
to set
a man
at variance
against
his
father
, and
the daughter
against
her
mother
, and
the daughter in law
against
her
mother in law
.
And a man's
foes
shall be they of his own
household
.
He that loveth father
or
mother
more than
me
is
not
worthy
of me
: and
he that loveth
son
or
daughter
more than
me
is
not
worthy
of me
.
And he
that taketh
not
his
cross
, and
followeth
after
me
, is
not
worthy
of me
.
He that findeth his
life
shall lose
it
: and
he that loseth
his
life
for my
sake
shall find
it
.
He that receiveth you
receiveth
me
, and
he that receiveth
me
receiveth
him that sent
me
.
He that receiveth a prophet
in
the name
of a prophet
shall receive
a prophet's
reward
; and
he that receiveth
a righteous man
in
the name
of a righteous man
shall receive
a righteous man's
reward
.
And whosoever
shall give to drink
unto one
of these
little ones
a cup
of cold
water only
in
the name
of a disciple
, verily
I say
unto you
, he shall in no wise
lose
his
reward
.
