Matthew 10:40-42
Holman Christian Standard Bible
A Cup of Cold Water
40 “The one who welcomes you welcomes Me,(A) and the one who welcomes Me welcomes Him who sent Me.(B) 41 Anyone who[a] welcomes a prophet(C) because he is a prophet[b] will receive a prophet’s reward. And anyone who[c] welcomes a righteous person because he’s righteous[d] will receive a righteous person’s reward. 42 And whoever gives(D) just a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple[e](E)—I assure you: He will never lose his reward!”
