9:36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
9:37 Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.
9:38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field."
10:1 He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.
10:2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;
10:3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
10:4 Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
10:5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: "Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.
10:6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.
10:7 As you go, preach this message: 'The kingdom of heaven is near.'
10:8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
10:9 Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts;
10:10 take no bag for the journey, or extra tunic, or sandals or a staff; for the worker is worth his keep.
