Matthew 10:40-42
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!”
