Mattityahu 10:1-10 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. And summoning his Shneym Asar (Twelve) Talmidim, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach gave to them samchut (authority) over shedim (unclean spirits), so as to cast them out, and samchut (authority) to call forth refuah for every machla and every illness.

2. Now of the Shneym Asar Shlichim, the names are these: first, Shimon, the one being called Kefa, and Andrew his brother, Yaakov Ben Zavdai and Yochanan his brother,

3. Philippos and Bar-Talmai, Toma and Mattityahu the moches, Yaakov Bar-Chalfai and Taddai,

4. Shimon the Zealot and Yehudah from Kriot, who betrayed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

5. These Shneym Asar (Twelve) did Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach send out with the following directives, saying: In the Derech HaGoyim (Way of the Gentiles, Gentile territory) do not go, and do not enter into any Shomron town,

6. but go rather to the Seh Oveid Beis Yisroel (the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel).

7. And, while going, preach that the Malchut HaShomayim is imminent and miyad.

8. Heal the cholim, raise the mesim, cleanse the metzoraim (lepers), cast out the shedim; freely you received, freely give.

9. Take neither gold nor silver nor copper for your money belts,

10. nor a schnorrer's (beggar's) bag for the road, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff, for the oseh hamelachah (the one doing the work) is worthy of his lechem.
