## When I sent you out ##

Jesus was talking to his apostles. So languages that have different forms of "you" should use the plural form. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])

## purse ##

A purse is a bag for holding money. Here it is used to refer to "money." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])

## a bag of provisions ##

This can be translated as "travelers' bag"  or "food," which would have been in the bag if they had taken one.

## did you lack anything? ##

"did you need anything that you did not have?" This is a rhetorical question to help the apostles remember how well the people they went to provided for them. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

## Nothing ##

"We did not lack anything"

## The one who does not have a sword should sell his cloak ##

Jesus was not referring to a specific person who did not have a sword. It can also be translated as "If anyone does not have a sword, he should sell his cloak."

## cloak ##

"coat" or "outer garment"
