13. If the people there welcome you, let your peace stay there. But if they don’t welcome you, take back the peace you wished for them.

15. I tell you the truth. On the Judgment Day it will be worse for that town than for the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah.
16. “Listen! I am sending you out, and you will be like sheep among wolves. So be as smart as snakes. But also be like doves and do nothing wrong.
17. Be careful of people. They will arrest you and take you to court. They will whip you in their synagogues.
