“The one who receives you,” he says, “who preach the truth, receives that divinity itself — that is, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. For this is what he means: the one who receives you receives me, and the one who receives me receives the Father himself.” (Matthew 10:40)

Greek

Ὁ δεχόμενος, φησίν, ὑμᾶς τοὺς τὴν ἀλήθειαν κηρύσσοντας αὐτὴν ἐκείνην δέχεται τὴν θεότητα, τοῦτ' ἔστιν τὸν πατέρα καὶ τὸν υἱὸν καὶ τὸ ἅγιον πνεῦμα· τοῦτο γάρ ἐστιν, ὅ φησιν· ὁ δεχόμενος ὑμᾶς ἐμὲ δέχεται, καὶ ὁ ἐμὲ δεχόμενος αὐτὸν τὸν πατέρα δέχεται.
