Matthew 10
1 Jesu sì pe àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ méjìlá sí ọ̀dọ̀; ó fún wọn ní àṣẹ láti lé ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde àti láti ṣe ìwòsàn ààrùn àti àìsàn gbogbo.
And having called to him his twelve disciples, he gave to them power over unclean spirits, so as to be casting them out, and to be healing every sickness, and every malady.
2 Orúkọ àwọn aposteli méjèèjìlá náà ni wọ̀nyí: ẹni àkọ́kọ́ ni Simoni ẹni ti a ń pè ni Peteru àti arákùnrin rẹ̀ Anderu; Jakọbu ọmọ Sebede àti arákùnrin rẹ̀ Johanu.
And of the twelve apostles the names are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 Filipi àti Bartolomeu; Tomasi àti Matiu agbowó òde; Jakọbu ọmọ Alfeu àti Taddeu;
Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax-gatherer; James of Alpheus, and Lebbeus who was surnamed Thaddeus;
4 Simoni ọmọ ẹgbẹ́ Sealoti, Judasi Iskariotu, ẹni tí ó da Jesu.
Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who did also deliver him up.
5 Àwọn méjèèjìlá wọ̀nyí ni Jesu ran, ó sì pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe lọ sì ọ̀nà àwọn kèfèrí, ẹ má ṣe wọ̀ ìlú àwọn ará Samaria.
These twelve did Jesus send forth, having given command to them, saying, 'To the way of the nations go not away, and into a city of the Samaritans go not in,
6 Ẹ kúkú tọ̀ àwọn àgùntàn ilé Israẹli tí ó nù lọ.
and be going rather unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Bí ẹ̀yin ti ń lọ, ẹ máa wàásù yìí wí pé, ‘Ìjọba ọ̀run kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀.’
'And, going on, proclaim saying that, the reign of the heavens hath come nigh;
8 Ẹ máa ṣe ìwòsàn fún àwọn aláìsàn, ẹ si jí àwọn òkú dìde, ẹ sọ àwọn adẹ́tẹ̀ di mímọ́, kí ẹ sì máa lé àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù jáde. Ọ̀fẹ́ ni ẹ̀yin gbà á, ọ̀fẹ́ ni kí ẹ fi fún ni.
infirm ones be healing, lepers be cleansing, dead be raising, demons be casting out — freely ye did receive, freely give.
9 “Ẹ má ṣe mú wúrà tàbí fàdákà tàbí idẹ sínú àpò ìgbànú yín,
'Provide not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your girdles,
10 ẹ má ṣe mú àpò fún ìrìnàjò yín, kí ẹ má ṣe mú ẹ̀wù méjì, tàbí bàtà, tàbí ọ̀pá; oúnjẹ oníṣẹ́ yẹ fún un.
nor scrip for the way, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor staff — for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.

'And into whatever city or village ye may enter, inquire ye who in it is worthy, and there abide, till ye may go forth.
12 Nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá sì wọ ilé kan, ẹ kí i wọn.
And coming to the house salute it,
13 Bí ilé náà bá sì yẹ, kí àlàáfíà yín kí ó bà sórí rẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n bí kò bá yẹ, kí àlàáfíà yín kí ó padà sọ́dọ̀ yín.
and if indeed the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it; and if it be not worthy, let your peace turn back to you.

'And whoever may not receive you nor hear your words, coming forth from that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet,
15 Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, yóò sàn fún ìlú Sodomu àti Gomorra ní ọjọ́ ìdájọ́ ju àwọn ìlú náà lọ.
verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
16 “Mò ń rán yín lọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgùntàn sáàrín ìkookò. Nítorí náà, kí ẹ ní ìṣọ́ra bí ejò, kí ẹ sì ṣe onírẹ̀lẹ̀ bí àdàbà.
'Lo, I do send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves, be ye therefore wise as the serpents, and simple as the doves.
17 Ẹ ṣọ́ra lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn nítorí wọn yóò fi yín le àwọn ìgbìmọ̀ ìgbèríko lọ́wọ́ wọn yóò sì nà yín nínú Sinagọgu.
And, take ye heed of men, for they will give you up to sanhedrims, and in their synagogues they will scourge you,
18 Nítorí orúkọ mi, a ó mú yín lọ síwájú àwọn baálẹ̀ àti àwọn ọba, bí ẹlẹ́rìí sí wọn àti àwọn aláìkọlà.
and before governors and kings ye shall be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.

'And whenever they may deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye may speak, for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak;
20 Nítorí pé kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin ni ó sọ ọ́, bí kò ṣe Ẹ̀mí Baba yín tí ń sọ̀rọ̀ nípasẹ̀ yín.
for ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father that is speaking in you.
21 “Arákùnrin yóò sì fi arákùnrin fún pípa. Baba yóò fi àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ fún ikú pa. Àwọn ọmọ yóò ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí òbí wọn, wọn yóò sì mú kí a pa wọ́n.
'And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,
22 Gbogbo ènìyàn yóò sì kórìíra yín nítorí mi, ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo ẹni tí ó bá dúró ṣinṣin dé òpin ni a ó gbàlà.
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end, he shall be saved.

'And whenever they may persecute you in this city, flee to the other, for verily I say to you, ye may not have completed the cities of Israel till the Son of Man may come.
24 “Akẹ́kọ̀ọ́ kì í ju olùkọ́ rẹ̀ lọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ kì í ju ọ̀gá rẹ̀ lọ.
'A disciple is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his lord;

sufficient to the disciple that he may be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord; if the master of the house they did call Beelzeboul, how much more those of his household?
26 “Nítorí náà, ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù wọn, nítorí kò sí ohun tó ń bọ̀ tí kò ní í fi ara hàn, tàbí ohun tó wà ní ìkọ̀kọ̀ tí a kò ní mọ̀ ni gbangba.
'Ye may not, therefore, fear them, for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed, and hid, that shall not be known;
27 Ohun tí mo bá wí fún yín ní òkùnkùn, òun ni kí ẹ sọ ní ìmọ́lẹ̀. Èyí tí mo sọ kẹ́lẹ́kẹ́lẹ́ sì etí yín ni kí ẹ kéde rẹ́ lórí òrùlé.
that which I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light, and that which you hear at the ear, proclaim on the house-tops.

'And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna. (Geenna g1067)

'Are not two sparrows sold for an assar? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father;

and of you — even the hairs of the head are all numbered;

be not therefore afraid, than many sparrows ye are better.
32 “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá jẹ́wọ́ mi níwájú ènìyàn, òun náà ni èmi yóò jẹ́wọ́ rẹ̀ níwájú Baba mi ní ọ̀run.
'Every one, therefore, who shall confess in me before men, I also will confess in him before my Father who is in the heavens;

and whoever shall deny me before men, I also will deny him before my Father who is in the heavens.
34 “Ẹ má ṣe rò pé mo mú àlàáfíà wá sí ayé, Èmi kò mú àlàáfíà wá bí kò ṣe idà.
'Ye may not suppose that I came to put peace on the earth; I did not come to put peace, but a sword;
35 Nítorí èmi wá láti ya “‘ọmọkùnrin ní ipa sí baba rẹ̀, ọmọbìnrin ní ipa sí ìyá rẹ̀, àti aya ọmọ sí ìyakọ rẹ.
for I came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law,
36 Ará ilé ènìyàn ni yóò sì máa ṣe ọ̀tá rẹ̀.’
and the enemies of a man are those of his household.

'He who is loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me, and he who is loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me,

'He who found his life shall lose it, and he who lost his life for my sake shall find it.
40 “Ẹni tí ó bá gbà yín, ó gbà mí, ẹni tí ó bá sì gbà mí gba ẹni tí ó rán mi.
'He who is receiving you doth receive me, and he who is receiving me doth receive Him who sent me,

he who is receiving a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward, and he who is receiving a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man's reward,

and whoever may give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say to you, he may not lose his reward.'
