MT-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.

MT-10:2  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;

MT-10:3  Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the 
publican; James [the

son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

MT-10:4  Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also 
betrayed him.

MT-10:5  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:

MT-10:6  But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

MT-10:7  And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is 
at hand.

MT-10:8  Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast 
out devils:

freely ye have received, freely give.

MT-10:9  Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your 
purses,

MT-10:10  Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, 
neither shoes, nor

yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

MT-10:11  And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, 
inquire who in it is

worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

MT-10:12  And when ye come into an house, salute it.

MT-10:13  And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon 
it: but if it be

not worthy, let your peace return to you.

MT-10:14  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.

MT-10:15  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.

MT-10:16  Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of 
wolves: be ye

therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

MT-10:17  But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the 
councils, and

they will scourge you in their synagogues;

MT-10:18  And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for 
my sake, for a

testimony against them and the Gentiles.

MT-10:19  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.

MT-10:20  For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your 
Father which

speaketh in you.

MT-10:21  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.

MT-10:22  And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake: 
but he that

endureth to the end shall be saved.

MT-10:23  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.

MT-10:24  The disciple is not above [his] master, nor the 
servant above his

lord.

MT-10:25  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?

MT-10:26  Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, 
that shall not

be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

MT-10:27  What I tell you in darkness, [that] speak ye in light: 
and what ye

hear in the ear, [that] preach ye upon the housetops.

MT-10:28  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.



MT-10:29  Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of 
them shall not

fall on the ground without your Father.

MT-10:30  But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

MT-10:31  Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many 
sparrows.

MT-10:32  Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him 
will I confess

also before my Father which is in heaven.

MT-10:33  But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I 
also deny before

my Father which is in heaven.

MT-10:34  Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I 
came not to send

peace, but a sword.

MT-10:35  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.



MT-10:36  And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household.

MT-10:37  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.

MT-10:38  And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after 
me, is not

worthy of me.

MT-10:39  He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that 
loseth his life

for my sake shall find it.

MT-10:40  He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that 
receiveth me

receiveth him that sent me.

MT-10:41  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.

MT-10:42  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.
