Matthew 10:10

Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

Nor {G3361} scrip {G4082} for {G1519} your journey {G3598}, neither {G3366} two {G1417} coats {G5509}, neither {G3366} shoes {G5266}, nor {G3366} yet staves {G4464}: for {G1063} the workman {G2040} is {G2076} worthy {G514} of his {G846} meat {G5160}.

and for the trip don't take a pack, an extra shirt, shoes or a walking stick -- a worker should be given what he needs.

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

no wallet for your journey, neither two coats, nor shoes, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
