# Matthew 10 (New King James Version)
The Twelve Apostles
##### Chapter 10
###### 1 And when He had called His twelve disciples to _Him,_ He gave them power _over_ unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.
###### 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: 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 tax collector; James the _son_ of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;
###### 4 Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.Sending Out the Twelve
###### 5 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: **"Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of** **the Samaritans.**
###### 6 **But go rather to the** **lost sheep of the house of Israel.**
###### 7 **And as you go, preach, saying,** **'The kingdom of heaven** **is at hand.'**
###### 8 **Heal the sick,** **cleanse the lepers,** **raise the dead, cast out demons.** **Freely you have received, freely give.**
###### 9 **Provide neither gold nor silver nor** **copper in your money belts,**
###### 10 **nor bag for _your_ journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor staffs;** **for a worker is worthy of his food.**
###### 11 **"Now whatever city or town you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and stay there till you go out.**
###### 12 **And when you go into a household, greet it.**
###### 13 **If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it.** **But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.**
###### 14 **And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city,** **shake off the dust from your feet.**
###### 15 **Assuredly, I say to you,** **it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!**Persecutions Are Coming
###### 16 **"Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves.** **Therefore be wise as serpents and** **harmless** **as doves.**
###### 17 **But beware of men, for** **they will deliver you up to councils and** **scourge you in their synagogues.**
###### 18 **You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.**
###### 19 **But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For** **it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak;**
###### 20 **for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.**
###### 21 **"Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father _his_ child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.**
###### 22 **And** **you will be hated by all for My name's sake.** **But he who endures to the end will be saved.**
###### 23 **When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have** **gone through the cities of Israel** **before the Son of Man comes.**
###### 24 **"A disciple is not above _his_ teacher, nor a servant above his master.**
###### 25 **It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If** **they have called the master of the house** **Beelzebub, how much more _will they call_ those of his household!**
###### 26 **Therefore do not fear them.** **For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.**Jesus Teaches the Fear of God
###### 27 **"Whatever I tell you in the dark,** **speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops.**
###### 28 **And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather** **fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in** **hell.**
###### 29 **Are not two** **sparrows sold for a** **copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will.**
###### 30 **But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.**
###### 31 **Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.**Confess Christ Before Men
###### 32 **"Therefore whoever confesses Me before men,** **him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.**
###### 33 **But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.**Christ Brings Division
###### 34 **"Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.**
###### 35 **For I have come to** **'set** **a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law';**
###### 36 **and** **'a man's enemies _will be_ those of his _own_ household.'**
###### 37 **He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.**
###### 38 **And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.**
###### 39 **He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.**A Cup of Cold Water
###### 40 **"He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.**
###### 41 **He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.**
###### 42 **And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold _water_ in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward."**
