Matthew 10
1 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.
2 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;
3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the
publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus,
whose surname was Thaddaeus;
4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also
betrayed him.
5 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:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of
Israel.
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of
heaven is at hand.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead,
cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely
give.
9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in
your purses,
10 Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats,
neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is
worthy of his meat.
11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter,
inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye
go thence.
12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.
13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come
upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace
return to you.
14 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.
15 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.
16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of
wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and
harmless as doves.
17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to
the councils, and they will scourge you in their
synagogues;
18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings
for my sake, for a testimony against them and the
Gentiles.
19 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.
20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of
your Father which speaketh in you.
21 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.
22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's
sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
23 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.
24 The disciple is not above his master, nor the
servant above his lord.
25 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?
26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing
covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that
shall not be known.
27 What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in
light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye
upon the housetops.
28 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.
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one
of them shall not fall on the ground without your
Father.
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than
many sparrows.
32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men,
him will I confess also before my Father which is in
heaven.
33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I
also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I
came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 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.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own
household.
37 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.
38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth
after me, is not worthy of me.
39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he
that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that
receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
41 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.
42 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.
