Matthew 10:8

6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

7 As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’

Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

9 Do not carry any gold or silver or copper in your belts.

10 Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
