Matthew 10 : 16 - 23
16 | "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. |
17 | But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues. |
18 | You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. |
19 | But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; |
20 | for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you. |
21 | "Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be 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 this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes. |
