1 Et convocatis duodecim discipulis suis
dedit illis potestatem spirituum inmundorum ut eicerent eos
et curarent omnem languorem et omnem infirmitatem
2 Duodecim autem apostolorum nomina sunt haec
primus Simon qui dicitur Petrus et Andreas frater eius
3 Iacobus Zebedaei et Iohannes frater eius
Philippus et Bartholomeus
Thomas et Mattheus publicanus
et Iacobus Alphei et Thaddeus
4 Simon Cananeus et Iudas Scariotes qui et tradidit eum
5 Hos duodecim misit Iesus praecipiens eis et dicens
in viam gentium ne abieritis
et in civitates Samaritanorum ne intraveritis
6 sed potius ite ad oves quae perierunt domus Israhel
7 Euntes autem praedicate dicentes
quia adpropinquavit regnum caelorum
8 infirmos curate mortuos suscitate leprosos mundate daemones eicite
gratis accepistis gratis date
9 nolite possidere aurum neque argentum
neque pecuniam in zonis vestris
10 non peram in via neque duas tunicas
neque calciamenta neque virgam
dignus enim est operarius cibo suo
11 In quamcumque civitatem aut castellum intraveritis
interrogate quis in ea dignus sit
et ibi manete donec exeatis
12 Intrantes autem in domum salutate eam
13 et siquidem fuerit domus digna
veniat pax vestra super eam
si autem non fuerit digna
pax vestra ad vos revertatur
14 Et quicumque non receperit vos neque audierit sermones vestros
exeuntes foras de domo vel de civitate
excutite pulverem de pedibus vestris
15 amen dico vobis
tolerabilius erit terrae Sodomorum et Gomorraeorum in die iudicii quam
illi civitati
16 Ecce ego mitto vos sicut oves in medio luporum
estote ergo prudentes sicut serpentes et simplices sicut columbae
17 Cavete autem ab hominibus
tradent enim vos in conciliis et in synagogis suis flagellabunt vos
18 et ad praesides et ad reges ducemini propter me
in testimonium illis et gentibus
19 Cum autem tradent vos
nolite cogitare quomodo aut quid loquamini
dabitur enim vobis in illa hora quid loquamini
20 non enim vos estis qui loquimini
sed Spiritus Patris vestri qui loquitur in vobis
21 tradet autem frater fratrem in mortem et pater filium
et insurgent filii in parentes et morte eos adficient
22 et eritis odio omnibus propter nomen meum
qui autem perseveraverit in finem hic salvus erit
23 Cum autem persequentur vos in civitate ista fugite in aliam
amen enim dico vobis
non consummabitis civitates Israhel donec veniat Filius hominis
24 Non est discipulus super magistrum
nec servus super dominum suum
25 sufficit discipulo ut sit sicut magister eius
et servus sicut dominus eius
Si patrem familias Beelzebub vocaverunt
quanto magis domesticos eius
26 ne ergo timueritis eos
Nihil enim opertum quod non revelabitur
et occultum quod non scietur
27 Quod dico vobis in tenebris dicite in lumine
et quod in aure auditis praedicate super tecta
28 et nolite timere eos qui occidunt corpus
animam autem non possunt occidere
sed potius eum timete
qui potest et animam et corpus perdere in gehennam
29 nonne duo passeres asse veneunt
et unus ex illis non cadet super terram sine Patre vestro
30 vestri autem et capilli capitis omnes numerati sunt
31 nolite ergo timere multis passeribus meliores estis vos
32 omnis ergo qui confitebitur me coram hominibus
confitebor et ego eum coram Patre meo qui est in caelis
33 Qui autem negaverit me coram hominibus
negabo et ego eum coram Patre meo qui est in caelis
34 Nolite arbitrari quia venerim mittere pacem in terram
non veni pacem mittere sed gladium
35 veni enim separare hominem adversus patrem suum
et filiam adversus matrem suam et nurum adversus socrum suam
36 et inimici hominis domestici eius
37 Qui amat patrem aut matrem plus quam me
non est me dignus
et qui amat filium aut filiam super me non est me dignus
38 et qui non accipit crucem suam et sequitur me non est me dignus
39 Qui invenit animam suam perdet illam
et qui perdiderit animam suam propter me inveniet eam
40 Qui recipit vos me recipit
et qui me recipit recipit eum qui me misit
41 Qui recipit prophetam in nomine prophetae mercedem prophetae accipiet
et qui recipit iustum in nomine iusti mercedem iusti accipiet
42 Et quicumque potum dederit uni ex minimis istis calicem aquae frigidae tantum in nomine discipuli
amen dico vobis non perdet mercedem suam
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.
