1And he called his twelve disciples, and gave them power over unclean spirits to cast them out, and to cure every disease and infirmity. 2Now, of the twelve apostles the names are these: the first of them, Shemun who is called Kipha, and Andreas his brother, and Jakubbar-Zabdai, and Juchanon his brother, 3and Philipos, and Bar-Tholmai, and Thoma, and Mathai the tribute-gatherer, and Jakubbar-Chalphai, and Labi who was surnamed Thadai, 4and Shemun the zealous, and Jihuda S'carjuta, he who betrayed him. 5These twelve Jeshu sent, and commanded them and said, In the way of the heathens go not, and into the city of the Shomroyee do not enter; 6but go rather unto the sheep which have perished from the house of Isroel. 7And as you go, proclaim and say that the kingdom of heaven hath drawn near. 8The diseased heal, the lepers cleanse, the dead raise, and the demons cast forth. Freely you have received, freely give. 9Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, 10nor a wallet for the road; neither two tunics, nor sandals, nor staff: for worthy is the workman of his meat. 11And into whatsoever city or town you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and there be till you depart. 12And when you enter into the house, invoke peace for the house; 13and if the house be worthy, your peace shall come upon it; but if it be not worthy, your peace upon yourselves shall revert. 14But whosoever doth not receive you or hear your words, when you depart from that house, or that town, set free the dust from your feet. 15And, Amen, I say unto you, that for the land of Sadum and of Amura it will be more tolerable, in the day of the judgment, than for that city. 16LO, I send you forth as sheep among wolves: be you, therefore, wise as serpents and guileless as doves. 17But beware of the sons of men; for, delivering you to the house of judgments, in their synagogues they will scourge you, 18and before governors and kings bring you, on my account, for the testimony concerning them and the gentiles. 19But when they deliver you up, be not solicitous how or what you shall speak; for it is given you in that hour what you shall speak. 20For it is not you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking in you. 21But the brother shall deliver his brother unto death, and the father his son; and the sons shall rise up against their fathers, and shall slay them. 22And you shall be abhorred by all men on account of my name: but he who shall persevere until the end, he shall be saved. 23When they persecute you in this city, escape to the other; for, Amen I say unto you, that you shall not have completed all the cities of the house of Isroel, till the Son of man shall come. 24The disciple is not greater than his master, nor the servant than his lord. 25It sufficeth the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If the master of the house they have called Beelzebub, how much more his house-sons! 26You shall not fear, therefore, from them; for there is nothing covered which shall not be revealed, nor secret which shall not be known. 27Whatsoever I say to you in darkness, declare you in the light; and whatsoever you have heard in your ears, proclaim upon the roofs. 28And fear not them who kill the body, but the soul cannot kill; but fear rather One who the soul and the body can destroy in gihano. 29Are not two sparrows sold for an asor? yet one of them, without your Father, doth not fall upon the earth. 30But of you, also, the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31Fear not, therefore; than many sparrows more precious are you. 32Every man, therefore, who shall confess me before the sons of men, I myself will confess him also before my Father who is in heaven. 33But whosoever shall deny me before the sons of men, I also will deny him, I, before my Father who is in heaven. 34EXPECT not that I have come to send forth peace on the earth; I have not come to send forth peace, but the sword. 35For I have come to cause a man to separate from his father, and a daughter from her mother, and a daughter-in-law from her mother-in-law; 36and the adversaries of a man (to be) his own house-sons. 37Whosoever loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy (of) me; and whosoever loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy (of) me. 38And every one who taketh not his cross and cometh after me, is not worthy of me. 39Whosoever will find his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it. 40Whosoever receiveth you, receiveth me; and whosoever receiveth me, Him who sent me he receiveth. 41Whosoever entertaineth a prophet in the name of a prophet, the reward of a prophet receiveth. Whosoever entertaineth a just man in the name of a just man, the reward of the just man he receiveth. 42And whosoever only giveth one of these little ones a cup of cold (waters) to drink in the name of a disciple, Amen, I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.
