10. “And into whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,

11. ‘Even the dust of your city which clings to us, we wipe off against you, but know this, that the reign of Elohim has come near to you.’

12. “And I say to you that it shall be more bearable for Seḏom in that Day, than for that city.

13. “Woe to you, Korazin! Woe to you, Bĕyth Tsaiḏa! For if the miracles which were done in you had been done in Tsor and Tsiḏon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

14. “But it shall be more bearable for Tsor and Tsiḏon at the judgment than for you.

15. “And you, Kephar Naḥum, who are exalted to the heaven, shall be brought down to the grave.
