1. And having called together the Shneym Asar, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach gave to them koach (power) and samchut (authority) over all the shedim and to give refuah (healing) to their illnesses.
2. Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach sent them out as his Shlichim to preach the Malchut Hashem and to give refuah to the cholim,
3. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Take nothing for the journey, neither walking stick nor a schnorrer's (beggar's) sack nor lechem nor kesef, nor an extra kaftan.
4. And into whatever bais you may enter, remain there, and from there go out.
5. And as many as do not receive you, going out from that shtetl, shake off the dust from your feet for an edut against them.
6. And they departed and were itinerating throughout the shtetlach, preaching the Besuras HaGeulah and healing everywhere.
7. Now Herod the Tetrarch heard all the things happening and he was perplexed because it was said by some that Yochanan had experienced his Techiyah from HaMesim and come back;
8. by some also that Eliyahu Hanavi had appeared; but by others that some navi of the ancients arose.
9. But Herod said, Yochanan I beheaded. Who then is this about whom I hear such things? And he was seeking to see him.
