Matthew:10:1-42
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And when he had called (
5666 )
unto him his twelve disciples ,
he gave (
5656 )
them power against unclean spirits ,
to cast them out (
5721 ),
and to heal (
5721 )
all manner of sickness and all manner of disease .
*
Now the names of the twelve apostles are (
5748 )
these ;
The first ,
Simon ,
who is called (
5746 )
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 (
5685 )
Thaddaeus ;
*
Simon the Canaanite ,
and Judas Iscariot ,
who also betrayed (
5631 )
him .
*
These twelve Jesus sent forth (
5656 ),
and commanded (
5660 )
them ,
saying (
5723 ),
Go (
5632 )
not into the way of the Gentiles ,
and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye (
5632 )
not :
*
But go (
5737 )
rather to the lost (
5756 )
sheep of the house of Israel .
*
And as ye go (
5740 ),
preach (
5720 ),
saying (
5723 ),
The kingdom of heaven is at hand (
5758 ).
*
Heal (
5720 )
the sick (
5723 ),
cleanse (
5720 )
the lepers ,
raise (
5720 )
the dead ,
cast out (
5720 )
devils :
freely ye have received (
5627 ),
freely give (
5628 ).
*
Provide (
5667 )
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 (
5748 )
worthy of his meat .
*
And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter (
5632 ),
enquire (
5657 )
who in it is (
5748 )
worthy ;
and there abide (
5657 )
till ye go thence (
5632 ).
*
And when ye come (
5740 )
into an house ,
salute (
5663 )
it .
*
And if the house be (
5753 )
worthy ,
let your peace come (
5628 )
upon it :
but if it be (
5753 )
not worthy ,
let your peace return (
5649 )
to you .
*
And whosoever shall not receive (
5667 )
you ,
nor hear (
5661 )
your words ,
when ye depart out (
5740 )
of that house or city ,
shake off (
5657 )
the dust of your feet .
*
Verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
It shall be (
5704 )
more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment ,
than for that city .
*
Behold (
5628 ),
I send you forth (
5719 )
as sheep in the midst of wolves :
be ye (
5737 )
therefore wise as serpents ,
and harmless as doves .
*
But beware (
5720 )
of men :
for they will deliver you up (
5692 )
to the councils ,
and they will scourge (
5692 )
you in their synagogues ;
*
And ye shall be brought (
5701 )
before governors and kings for my sake ,
for a testimony against them and the Gentiles .
*
But when they deliver you up (
5725 ),
take no thought (
5661 )
how or what ye shall speak (
5661 ):
for it shall be given (
5701 )
you in that same hour what ye shall speak (
5692 ).
*
For it is (
5748 )
not ye that speak (
5723 ),
but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh (
5723 )
in you .
*
And the brother shall deliver up (
5692 )
the brother to death ,
and the father the child :
and the children shall rise up (
5695 )
against their parents ,
and cause them to be put to death (
5692 ).
*
And ye shall (
5704 )
be hated (
5746 )
of all men for my names sake :
but he that endureth (
5660 )
to the end shall be saved (
5701 ).
*
But when they persecute (
5725 )
you in this city ,
flee ye (
5720 )
into another :
for verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Ye shall not have gone over (
5661 )
the cities of Israel ,
till the Son of man be come (
5632 ).
*
The disciple is (
5748 )
not above his master ,
nor the servant above his lord .
*
It is enough for the disciple that he be (
5638 )
as his master ,
and the servant as his lord .
If they have called (
5656 )
the master of the house Beelzebub ,
how much more shall they call them of his household ?
*
Fear (
5676 )
them not therefore :
for there is (
5748 )
nothing covered (
5772 ),
that shall not be revealed (
5701 );
and hid ,
that shall not be known (
5701 ).
*
What I tell (
5719 )
you in darkness ,
that speak ye (
5628 )
in light :
and what ye hear (
5719 )
in the ear ,
that preach ye (
5657 )
upon the housetops .
*
And fear (
5676 )
not them which kill (
5723 )
the body ,
but are not able (
5740 )
to kill (
5658 )
the soul :
but rather fear (
5676 )
him which is able (
5740 )
to destroy (
5658 )
both soul and body in hell .
*
Are not two sparrows sold (
5743 )
for a farthing ?
and one of them shall not fall (
5695 )
on the ground without your Father .
*
But the very hairs of your head are (
5748 )
all numbered (
5772 ).
*
Fear ye (
5676 )
not therefore ,
ye are of more value (
5719 )
than many sparrows .
*
Whosoever therefore shall confess (
5692 )
me before men ,
him will I confess (
5692 )
also before my Father which is in heaven .
*
But whosoever shall deny (
5667 )
me before men ,
him will I also deny (
5695 )
before my Father which is in heaven .
*
Think (
5661 )
not that I am come (
5627 )
to send (
5629 )
peace on earth :
I came (
5627 )
not to send (
5629 )
peace ,
but a sword .
*
For I am come (
5627 )
to set a man at variance (
5658 )
against his father ,
and the daughter against her mother ,
and the daughter in law against her mother in law .
*
And a mans foes shall be they of his own household .
*
He that loveth (
5723 )
father or mother more than me is (
5748 )
not worthy of me :
and he that loveth (
5723 )
son or daughter more than me is (
5748 )
not worthy of me .
*
And he that taketh (
5719 )
not his cross ,
and followeth (
5719 )
after me ,
is (
5748 )
not worthy of me .
*
He that findeth (
5631 )
his life shall lose (
5692 )
it :
and he that loseth (
5660 )
his life for my sake shall find (
5692 )
it .
*
He that receiveth (
5740 )
you receiveth (
5736 )
me ,
and he that receiveth (
5740 )
me receiveth (
5736 )
him that sent (
5660 )
me .
*
He that receiveth (
5740 )
a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive (
5695 )
a prophets reward ;
and he that receiveth (
5695 )
a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive (
5740 )
a righteous mans reward .
*
And whosoever shall give to drink (
5661 )
unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple ,
verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
he shall in no wise lose (
5661 )
his reward .
