International Children’s Bible

Matthew 10:9-14 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

9. Don’t carry any money with you—gold or silver or copper.

10. Don’t carry a bag. Take for your trip only the clothes and sandals you are wearing. Don’t take a walking stick. A worker should be given the things he needs.

11. “When you enter a city or town, find some worthy person there and stay in his home until you leave.

12. When you enter that home, say, ‘Peace be with you.’

13. If the people there welcome you, let your peace stay there. But if they don’t welcome you, take back the peace you wished for them.

14. And if a home or town refuses to welcome you or listen to you, then leave that place. Shake its dust off your feet.
