Mark 6:10

8 He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9 and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that place, as a testimony against them.”

12 So they set out and preached that the people should repent.
