Mark 6:2–13

And don the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and emany who heard him were astonished, saying, Where did this man get these things? What is the wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done by his hands? fIs not this gthe carpenter, the son of Mary and hbrother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us? And ithey took offense at him. And Jesus said to them, jA prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household. And khe could do no mighty work there, except that lhe laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. And mhe marveled because of their unbelief.

nAnd he went about among the villages teaching.

oAnd he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staffno bread, no bag, no money in their belts but to pwear sandals and not put on two tunics.1 10 And he said to them, Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you depart from there. 11 And if any place will not receive you and they will not listen to you, when you leave, qshake off the dust that is on your feet ras a testimony against them. 12 sSo they went out and tproclaimed uthat people should repent. 13 tAnd they cast out many demons and vanointed with oil many who were sick and healed them.
