1 And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, 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 tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Canaanite and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. 5 Jesus sent forth these twelve and commanded them, saying, "Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter into any 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 brass in your purses, 10 nor bag for your journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor staffs. For the workman is worthy of his food. 11 "And whatever city or town you enter into, inquire who is worthy in it, and remain there until you go from there. 12 And when you come into a house, greet it. 13 And if the house is worthy, let your peace come on it.
