3 You can go now. But listen! I am sending you, and you will be like sheep among wolves.
4 Don’t carry a purse, a bag, or sandals. Don’t stop to talk with people on the road.
5 Before you go into a house, say, ‘Peace be with this house.’
6 If a peaceful man lives there, your blessing of peace will stay with him. If the man is not peaceful, then your blessing of peace will come back to you.
7 Stay in the same house. Eat and drink what the people there give you. A worker should be given his pay. Don’t move from house to house.
8 If you go into a town and the people welcome you, eat what they give you.
9 Heal the sick who live there. Tell them, ‘The kingdom of God is soon coming to you!’
