Matthew 10
1 Calling his twelve Disciples to him, Jesus gave them authority over foul spirits, so that they could drive them out, as well as the power of curing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness.

2 The names of the twelve apostles are these, First Simon, also known as Peter, and his brother Andrew; James the son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

13 Then, if the house is worthy, let your blessing rest on it, but, if it is unworthy, let your blessing return on yourselves.

14 If no one welcomes you, or listens to what you say, as you leave that house or that town, shake off its dust from your feet.

17 Be on your guard against others, for they will betray you to courts of law, and scourge you in their synagogues;

19 Whenever they betray you, do not be anxious as to how you will speak or what you will say, for what you will say will be given you at the moment;

21 Brother will betray brother to death, and the father his child; and children will turn against their parents, and cause them to be put to death;

23 But, when they persecute you in one town, escape to the next; for, I tell you, you will not have come to the end of the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
