[2]The names of the twelue Apostles are these. The first, Simon, whiche is called Peter, and Andrewe his brother, Iames, the [sonne] of Zebedee, & Iohn his brother [2]Now the names of the twelve Apostles are these. The first is Simon, called Peter, and Andrew his brother: James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother.

[5]Iesus sent foorth these twelue, who he comaunded, saying. Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into the citie of the Samaritanes enter ye not [5]These twelve did Jesus send forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into the cities of the Samaritans enter ye not:
[6]But go rather to the lost sheepe of the house of Israel [6]But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
[7]As ye go, preache, saying: The kyngdome of heauen is at hande [7]And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

[9]Possesse not golde, nor syluer, nor brasse in your purses [9]Possess not gold, nor silver, nor money in your girdles,
[10]Nor yet scrippe, towardes your iourney, neither two coates, neither shoes, nor yet a staffe. For the workman is worthy of his meate [10]Nor a script for the journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor a staff: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
[11]But to whatsoeuer citie or towne ye shall come, inquire who is worthy in it, and there abyde, tyll ye go thence [11]And into whatsoever city or town ye shall come, inquire who is worthy in it, and there abide till ye go thence.
[12]And when ye come into an house, salute the same [12]And when ye come into a house, salute the same.
[13]And if the house be worthy, let your peace come vpon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace returne to you again [13]And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
[14]And whosoeuer shal not receaue you, nor wyll heare your preachyng: when ye depart out of that house, or that citie, shake of the dust of your feete [14]And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house, or that city, shake off the dust of your feet.
[15]Ueryly I say vnto you, it shalbe easier for the lande of the Sodomites and Gomorreans, in the day of iudgement, then for that citie [15]Truly I say unto you, it shall be easier for them of the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Day of Judgment, then for that city.
[16]Beholde, I sende you foorth, as sheepe in the middest of woolfes. Be ye therfore wyse as serpentes, and harmelesse as doues [16]Behold, I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and innocent as doves.

[19]But whe they delyuer you vp, take ye no thought, how or what ye shal speake. For it shalbe geuen you, euen in that same houre, what ye shall speake [19]But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour, what ye shall say.
[20]For it is not ye that speake, but ye spirite of your father, which speaketh in you [20]For it is not ye that speak, but the spirit of your father which speaketh in you.
[21]The brother shall delyuer vp the brother to death, and the father the sonne, & the chyldren shall ryse agaynst their fathers, and mothers, and shall put them to death [21]And the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son, and the children shall rise against their parents, and shall cause them to die.

[24]The disciple is not aboue the maister, nor the seruaunt aboue his lorde [24]The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his Lord.
[25]It is enough for the disciple, that he be as his maister is: and that the seruaunt, be as his lorde is. If they haue called the lorde of the house Beelzebub: howe much more shall they call them of his householde so [25]It is enough for the disciple to be as his master is, and the servant as his Lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household?
[26]Feare them not therfore. For there is nothing close, that shal not be opened: & nothing hyd, that shall not be knowen [26]Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be disclosed, nor hid, that shall not be known.
[27]What I tell you in darknesse, that speake ye in lyght: And what ye heare in the eare, that preach ye on the houses [27]What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye on the houses.
[28]And feare ye not them, which kyll the body, but are not able to kyll the soule. But rather feare hym, which is able to destroy both soule and body in hell [28]And fear ye not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him, which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
[29]Are not two litle sparowes solde for a farthyng? And one of the shall not light on the grounde, without your father [29]Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing, and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father?
[30]Yea, euen all the heeres of your head are numbred [30]Yea, and all the hairs of your head are numbered.
[31]Feare ye not therefore, ye are of more value then many sparowes [31]Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
[32]Euery one therfore, that shall confesse me before men, hym wyll I confesse also, before my father, which is in heaues [32]Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father, which is in heaven.
[33]But whosoeuer shall denye me before men, hym wyll I also denye, before my father, which is in heauens [33]But whosoever shall deny me before me, him will I also deny before my Father, which is in heaven.

[39]He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that loseth his lyfe, for my sake, shall fynde it [39]He that will save his life, shall lose it, and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall save it.
[40]He that receaueth you, receaueth me: & he that receaueth me, receaueth hym that sent me [40]He that receiveth you, receiveth me: and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that hath sent me.
[41]He that receaueth a prophete, in the name of a prophete, shall receaue a prophetes rewarde.
