THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Matthew (Author Matthew)

10:11And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

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

10:13And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

10:14And 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.

10:15Verily 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.

10:16Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

10:17But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;

10:18And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

10:19But 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.

10:20For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

10:21And 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.

10:22And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

10:23But 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.
