Ministry of the Twelve

1 aAnd He called° the twelve° together°, and gave° them power° and authority° over° all° the demons° and to heal° diseases°. 2 And He sent° them out to aproclaim° the kingdom° of God° and to perform° healing°. 3 And He said° to them, aTake° nothing° for [your] journey°, bneither° a staff°, nor° a Ibag°, nor° bread°, nor° money°; and do not [even] have° IItwo° tunics° apiece°. 4 Whatever° house° you enter°, stay° there° Iuntil° you leave° that city°. 5 And as for those who do not receive° you, as you go° out from that city°, ashake° the dust° off° your feet° as a testimony° against° them.” 6 Departing°, they [began] going° Ithroughout° the villages°, apreaching° the gospel° and healing° everywhere°.

12 ¶ Now the day° Iwas ending°, and the twelve° came° and said° to Him, “Send° the crowd° away°, that they may go° into the surrounding° villages° and countryside° and find° lodging° and get° IIsomething° to eat°; for here° we are in a desolate° place°.” 13 But He said° to them, “You give° them [something] to eat°!” And they said°, “We have no° more° than° five° loaves° and two° fish°, unless°° perhaps° we go° and buy° food° for all° these° people°.” 14 (For there were about° five° thousand° men°.)
