The word And introduces the next major event in the story. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave And untranslated. Alternate translation: [After that,]

τοὺς δώδεκα μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί προσκαλεσάμενος τούς δώδεκα μαθητάς αὐτοῦ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν πνευμάτων ἀκαθάρτων ὥστε ἐκβάλλειν αὐτά καί θεραπεύειν πασᾶν νόσον καί πασᾶν μαλακίαν)

Since Matthew will list who these 12 disciples are in the following verse, you do not need to explain in this verse who they are. However, you could clarify that these are the 12 closest or most important disciples. Matthew does not mean that Jesus only had 12 disciples. Alternate translation: [his 12 closest disciples] or [his 12 most important disciples]

The phrase every disease and every sickness represents people with these diseases and sicknesses.

The terms every disease and every sickness mean similar things. Matthew is using the two terms together for emphasis.
