Mark 6:1–13

And going out from thence, he went into his own country; and his disciples followed him.

²And when the Sabbath was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were in admiration at his doctrine, saying: How came this man by all these things? and what wisdom is this that is given to him, and such mighty works as are wrought by his hands?

³Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joseph, and Jude, and Simon? are not also his sisters here with us? And they were scandalized in regard of him.

⁴And Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred.

⁵And he could not do any miracles there, only that he cured a few that were sick, laying his hands upon them.

⁶And he wondered because of their unbelief, and he went through the villages round about teaching.

⁷And he called the twelve; and began to send them two and two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.

⁸And he commanded them that they should take nothing for the way, but a staff only; no scrip, no bread, nor money in their purse,

⁹But to be shod with sandals, and that they should not put on two coats.

¹⁰And he said to them: Wheresoever you shall enter into an house, there abide till you depart from that place.

¹¹And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you; going forth from thence, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony to them.

¹²And going forth they preached men should do penance:

¹³And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.
