¹He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness. ²Now the names of the twelve apostles are these.

⁵Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go among the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.

²³The thing pleased me well. I took twelve of your men, one man for every tribe.

¹⁸You shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land for inheritance.
