Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
The KJV’s Greek text (Textus Receptus) does not include “to the feet” (εἰς τοὺς πόδας) before we wipe here. The KJV’s Greek text (Textus Receptus) adds “upon you” (ἐφ᾽ ὑμᾶς) before the here.
