Posses not golde nor silver nor brassse yn youre gerdels

nor yet scrip towardes your iorney: nether two cotes nether shues nor yet a staffe. For the workman is worthy to have his meate.

In to whatsoever cite or toune ye shall come enquyre who ys worthy yn it and there abyde till ye goo thence.

And when ye come in to an housse salute the same.

And yf the housse be worthy youre peace shall come apon it. But yf it be not worthy youre peace shall retourne to you agayne.

And whosoever shall not receave you nor will heare youre preachynge: when ye departe oute of that housse or that cite shake of the duste of youre fete.

Truly I say vnto you: it shalbe easier for the londe of zodoma and Gomorra in the daye of iudgement then for that cite.

The disciple ys not above hys master: nor yet the servaut above his lorde.

It is ynough for the disciple to be as hys master ys and that the servaunt be as his lorde ys. yf they have called the lorde of the housse beelzebub: how moche more shall they call them of his housholde so?

Feare the not therfore. There is no thinge so close that shall not be openned and no thinge so hyd that shall not be knowen.

What I tell you in dercknes that speake ye in lyght. And what ye heare in the eare that preache the on the housse toppes.
