Old Testament

New Testament

Matthew 10:9-16 God's Word Translation (GW)

9. “Don’t take any gold, silver, or even copper coins in your pockets.

10. Don’t take a traveling bag for the trip, a change of clothes, sandals, or a walking stick. After all, the worker deserves to have his needs met.

11. “When you go into a city or village, look for people who will listen to you there. Stay with them until you leave ⌊that place⌋.

12. When you go into a house, greet the family.

13. If it is a family that listens to you, allow your greeting to stand. But if it is not receptive, take back your greeting.

14. If anyone doesn’t welcome you or listen to what you say, leave that house or city, and shake its dust off your feet.

15. I can guarantee this truth: Judgment day will be better for Sodom and Gomorrah than for that city.

16. “I’m sending you out like sheep among wolves. So be as cunning as snakes but as innocent as doves.
