Matthew 10 (WEBP)

[1] He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
[2] Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
[3] Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
[4] Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
[5] Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go among the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.
[6] Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
[7] As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
[8] Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
[9] Don’t take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
[10] Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
[11] Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
[12] As you enter into the household, greet it.
[13] If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.
[14] Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
[15] Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
[16] “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
[17] But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
[18] Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
[19] But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
[20] For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
[21] “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
[22] You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
[23] But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
[24] “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
[25] It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
[26] Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
[27] What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
[28] Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.
[29] “Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
[30] But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
[31] Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
[32] Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
[33] But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
[34] “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
[35] For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
[36] A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
[37] He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.
[38] He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.
[39] He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
[40] “He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
[41] He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
[42] Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”

Matthew 10:3 NU omits “Lebbaeus, who was also called”
Matthew 10:8 TR adds “raise the dead,”
Matthew 10:25 Literally, Lord of the Flies, or the devil
Matthew 10:28 or, Hell.
Matthew 10:29 An assarion is a small coin worth one tenth of a drachma or a sixteenth of a denarius. An assarion is approximately the wages of one half hour of agricultural labor.
Matthew 10:36

Matthew 10 (KJVS)

[1] And when he had called () unto [him] his twelve disciples, 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 publican; James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was () Thaddaeus;
[4] Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed () him.
[5] These twelve Jesus sent forth, () and commanded () them, saying, () Go () not into the way of the Gentiles, and into [any] city of the Samaritans enter ye () not:
[6] But go () rather to the lost () sheep of the house of Israel.
[7] And as ye go, () preach, () saying, () The kingdom of heaven is at hand. ()
[8] Heal () the sick, () cleanse () the lepers, raise () the dead, cast out () devils: freely ye have received, () freely give. ()
[9] Provide () neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
[10] Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is () worthy of his meat.
[11] And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, () enquire () who in it is () worthy; and there abide () till ye go thence. ()
[12] And when ye come () into an house, salute () it.
[13] And if the house be () worthy, let your peace come () upon it: but if it be () not worthy, let your peace return () to you.
[14] And 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.
[15] Verily 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.
[16] Behold, () I send you forth () as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye () therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
[17] But beware () of men: for they will deliver you up () to the councils, and they will scourge () you in their synagogues;
[18] And ye shall be brought () before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
[19] But 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. ()
[20] For it is () not ye that speak, () but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh () in you.
[21] And 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. ()
[22] And ye shall () be hated () of all [men] for my name’s sake: but he that endureth () to the end shall be saved. ()
[23] But 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. ()
[24] The disciple is () not above [his] master, nor the servant above his lord.
[25] It is enough for the disciple that he be () as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called () the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his household?
[26] Fear () them not therefore: for there is () nothing covered, () that shall not be revealed; () and hid, that shall not be known. ()
[27] What I tell () you in darkness, [that] speak ye () in light: and what ye hear () in the ear, [that] preach ye () upon the housetops.
[28] And fear () not them which kill () the body, but are not able () to kill () the soul: but rather fear () him which is able () to destroy () both soul and body in hell.
[29] Are not two sparrows sold () for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall () on the ground without your Father.
[30] But the very hairs of your head are () all numbered. ()
[31] Fear ye () not therefore, ye are of more value () than many sparrows.
[32] Whosoever therefore shall confess () me before men, him will I confess () also before my Father which is in heaven.
[33] But whosoever shall deny () me before men, him will I also deny () before my Father which is in heaven.
[34] Think () not that I am come () to send () peace on earth: I came () not to send () peace, but a sword.
[35] For I am come () to set a man at variance () against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
[36] And a man’s foes [shall be] they of his own household.
[37] He that loveth () father or mother more than me is () not worthy of me: and he that loveth () son or daughter more than me is () not worthy of me.
[38] And he that taketh () not his cross, and followeth () after me, is () not worthy of me.
[39] He that findeth () his life shall lose () it: and he that loseth () his life for my sake shall find () it.
[40] He that receiveth () you receiveth () me, and he that receiveth () me receiveth () him that sent () me.
[41] He that receiveth () a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive () a prophet’s reward; and he that receiveth () a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive () a righteous man’s reward.
[42] And whosoever shall give to drink () unto one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] only in the name of a disciple, verily I say () unto you, he shall in no wise lose () his reward.
