\subsection{Matthew 10}
\subsubsection{Sending Out the Twelve Apostles}
\VS{1} And having called to himself his twelve disciples he gave to them authority 
over unclean spirits so as to be casting them out, and to be healing every 
disease and every weakness. 
\VS{2} Now the names of the twelve 
apostles\footnote{in Gk: ``sent ones''} are these: First Simon the [one] called 
Peter and Andrew his brother, and James the son of Zebedee and Ioannes his 
brother, 
\VS{3} Phillip and Bartholemew, Thomas and Matthew the 
tax-collector, James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus, 
\VS{4} Simon the 
Zealot and Judas Iscariot who also betrayed him. 

\VS{5} Iesous sent out these 
twelve after he exhorted them saying: Do not go in the road of the nations, 
and do not enter into the city of Samaritans. 
\VS{6} But be going instead to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 
\VS{7} And while going, be 
proclaiming that the kingdom of the heavens [is] at hand. 
\VS{8} Be healing the 
feeble, be raising the dead, be cleansing lepers, be casting out demons. 
Freely you have received, freely give. 
\VS{9} Do not take\footnote{or ``acquire''} 
gold nor silver nor copper coin in your belt 
\VS{10} nor pouch 
for the road nor two shirts nor sandals nor staves, for the worker [is] worthy 
of his sustenance. 
\VS{11} And in whatever city or town you enter, inquire 
who in it is worthy, and there remain until you leave. 
\VS{12} And when you 
enter into the house, greet it kindly. 
\VS{13} And if the house should be 
worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it should not be worthy, let 
your peace return to you. 
\VS{14} And whoever does not receive you nor hear 
your words, when you come of that house or city, shake the dust off your 
feet. 
\VS{15} Truly I say to you, It will be more bearable for [the] land of 
Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment than for that city. 

\subsubsection{Persecution of Disciples}
\VS{16} Behold 
I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves. Become therefore shrewd as foxes 
and as innocent\footnote{``untouched,'' ``unharmed''} as doves. 
\VS{17} But be 
giving heed of men, for they will deliver you up to the council, and in 
their synagogues they will flog you, 
\VS{18} and before chiefs and kings you 
will be brought on account of me, as [a] witness to them and to the nations. 
\VS{19} Now whenever they deliver you up, do not be concerned about how or 
what you will speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you will 
say. 
\VS{20} For you are not the [ones] speaking, but the spirit of your father 
who speaks in you. 

\VS{21} For brother will deliver up brother to death and 
[a] father [his] son, and children will rise up against [their] parents and will cause them 
to die\footnote{``be put to death'' ?}. 
\VS{22} And you will be hated by all 
because of my name, but the [one] having born up to the end, this [one] shall be 
saved. 
\VS{23} But whenever they persecute you in this city, be fleeing to 
another, for truly I say to you, you will \negd{not} complete the 
cities of Israel until the son of man comes. 

\VS{24} [A] disciple is not above 
his teacher nor [a] slave above his Lord. 
\VS{25} [It is] sufficient to [a] disciple 
that he become as his teacher and the slave as his Lord. If they call the 
master of the house Beelzebub, how much more those of his household? 

\subsubsection{Fear God, Not Man}
\VS{26} Therefore do not fear them, for nothing is covered that will not be 
uncovered, and [nothing] secret that will not be known. 
\VS{27} What I say to you in 
darkness, you speak in the light, and what you hear in your ear, proclaim in 
the houses. 
\VS{28} And do not fear those killing the body but unable to 
kill the psyche-life\fnPsyche{}, but fear rather the [one] able to destroy both body and psyche-life\fnPsyche{} in Gehenna\fnGehenna{}. 
\VS{29} Are not two sparrows sold for [a] penny? And one of them will 
not fall on the ground\fnGe{} without your father. 
\VS{30} But the very hairs of 
your head are all numbered. 
\VS{31} Therefore do not fear; you are worth 
more than many sparrows. 

\VS{32} Therefore everyone who will profess me 
before men, I also will profess him before my father in the heavens. 
\VS{33} But whoever will deny\footnote{or ``refuse''} me before men, I also will 
deny\footnote{or ``refuse''} him before my father in the heavens. 

\subsubsection{Not Peace, but a Sword}
\VS{34} Do not think that I came to bring peace on the land. I did not come to 
bring peace but [a] sword. 
\VS{35} For I came to set [a] man against his father 
and [a] daughter against her mother, and [a] wife against her in-laws. 
\VS{36} And [a] man's enemies will be of his own house. 

\VS{37} The [one] philia-loving father 
or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and the [one] philia-loving son or 
daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 
\VS{38} And whoever does not receive\footnote{or ``take''} his cross 
and follow after me is not worthy of me. 
\VS{39} The [one] finding his psyche-life\fnPsyche{} shall lose\fnApollumi{} it, and the [one] losing\fnApollumi{} his psyche-life\fnPsyche{} because of me will find it. 

\subsubsection{Rewards}
\VS{40} Whoever receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives the one who sent me. 
\VS{41} The [one] receiving [a] 
prophet in the name of [a] prophet will receive [a] prophet's reward, and the 
[one] receiving [a] just [one] in the name of [a] just [one] will receive [a] just [one]'s reward. 
\VS{42} And whoever gives only [a] glass of cold water to one of these little [ones] in the name of [a] disciple, truly I say to you, he shall \negd{not} lose\fnApollumi{} his reward.
