Matthew 10: 16 - 23
|
16 | "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. |
17 | Beware of men; for they will deliver you up to councils, and flog you in their synagogues, |
18 | and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them and the Gentiles. |
19 | When they deliver you up, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour; |
20 | for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. |
21 | Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death; |
22 | and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. |
23 | When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next; for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel, before the Son of man comes. |
