Matthew Chapter 10 Verse 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.›

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.›

‹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?›
