AUV(i)
7 Then Jesus called to Him the twelve apostles and sent them out two by two. He gave them authority over evil spirits
8 and ordered them not to take anything with them during their travels, except a walking stick. They were to take no food, no traveling bag [for personal belongings], and no money in their money belts,
9 but were to wear sandals and take only one coat.
10 And He said to them, “Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that place.
11 And the people from whatever place that does not welcome you or listen to you, when you leave there, shake the dust off from under your shoes as evidence against them.” [Note: This was a Jewish custom showing disdain and intended to suggest their unworthiness].
12 Then they went out and preached that people should repent [i.e., change their hearts and lives].
13 And they drove out many evil spirits and applied [olive] oil to [the heads of] many sick people and healed them.
