3 "Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.
4 Do not take a purse or bag or sandals. And don't greet anyone on the road.
5 "When you enter a house, first say, 'May this house be blessed with peace.'
6 If someone there loves peace, your blessing of peace will rest on him. If not, it will return to you.
7 Stay in that house. Eat and drink anything they give you. Workers are worthy of their pay. Do not move around from house to house.
8 "When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is set down in front of you.
9 Heal the sick people who are there. Tell them, 'God's kingdom is near you.'
