Matthew 10
1 Jesus called his twelve disciples together and gave them power to throw out evil spirits, and to heal all kinds of diseases and sicknesses.

2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon, (also called Peter), Andrew his brother, James the son of Zebedee, John his brother,

13 If the home deserves it, let your peace rest on it, but if it doesn't deserve it, let your peace return to you.

14 If someone doesn't welcome you, and refuses to listen to what you have to say, then leave that house or that town, shaking its dust off your feet as you go.

17 Watch out for those who will hand you over to be tried by town councils and will whip you in their synagogues.

19 But when they put you on trial, don't worry about how you should speak or what you should say, because you'll be told what to say at the right time.

21 Brother will betray brother and have him killed, and a father will do the same to his child. Children will rebel against their parents, and have them put to death.

22 Everyone will hate you because you follow me, but those who endure until the end will be saved.

23 When you're persecuted in one town, run away to the next. I'm telling the truth: you won't finish going to the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.

25 Disciples should be satisfied to become like their teacher, and servants like their master. If the head of the house has been called the head demon Beelzebub, then the members of his household will be demonized even more!
