If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it; but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.

Matthew 10:11–15 · Berean Standard Bible

11 Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.

12 As you enter the home, greet its occupants.

13 If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it; but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

14 And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.

15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.
