Matthew 10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 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. 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;
3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican;
James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was
Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also
betrayed him. 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: 6 But go
rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 And
as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Heal
the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye
have received, freely give. 9 Provide
neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, 10 Nor
scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet
staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. 11 And
into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy;
and there abide till ye go thence. 12 And
when ye come into an house, salute it. 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. 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. 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. 16 Behold,
I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as
serpents, and harmless as doves. 17 But
beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will
scourge you in their synagogues; 18 And
ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a
testimony against them and the Gentiles. 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. 20 For
it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in
you. 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. 22 And ye shall be
hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the
end shall be saved. 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. 24 The disciple is
not above his master, nor the servant above his lord. 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? 26 Fear
them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be
revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. 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. 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.
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a
farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your
Father. 30 But the very hairs of
your head are all numbered. 31 Fear
ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. 32 Whosoever
therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my
Father which is in heaven. 33 But
whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father
which is in heaven. 34 Think not
that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a
sword. 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. 36 And
a man’s foes shall be they of his own household. 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. 38 And
he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
39 He that findeth his life shall lose it:
and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. 40 He
that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him
that sent me. 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. 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. Return to Bible Online Calvinist Corner |
