Luke 9:1–10

¹And having called together his twelve disciples, he gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to cure sicknesses, ²and he sent them to proclaim the reign of God, and to heal the ailing. ³And he said unto them, ‘Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats each; ⁴and into whatever house ye may enter, there remain, and thence depart; ⁵and as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, even the dust from your feet shake off, for a testimony against them.’ ⁶And going forth they were going through the several villages, proclaiming good news, and healing everywhere. ⁷And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things being done by him, and was perplexed, because it was said by certain, that John hath been raised out of the dead; ⁸and by certain, that Elijah did appear, and by others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen; ⁹and Herod said, ‘John I did behead, but who is this concerning whom I hear such things?’ and he was seeking to see him.
