Do not depart from house to house. ⁸ And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you. ⁹ And heal the weak in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near to you. ¹⁰ But into whatever city ye enter, and they will not receive you, after departing into the thoroughfares of it, say, ¹¹ Even the dust that clings on us from your city, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know ye this, that the kingdom of God has come near to you.

²⁶ Then all the sons of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before LORD, and fasted that day until evening, and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before LORD. ²⁷ And the sons of Israel asked of LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days, ²⁸ and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), saying, Shall I yet again go out to battle against the sons of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease? And LORD said, Go up, for tomorrow I will deliver him into thy hand.
