of men: for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their 18 synagogues they will scourge you; yea and before governors and kings shall ye be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and 19 to the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour 20 what ye shall speak. For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit 21 of your Father that speaketh in you. And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and the father his child: and children shall 22 rise up against parents, and [6]cause them to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that 23 endureth to the end, the same shall be saved. But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone through the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come. 24 A disciple is not above his [7]master, nor a [8]servant above his 25 lord. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his [7]master, and the [8]servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house [9]Beelzebub, how much more _shall they call_ them of 26 his household! Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be 27 known. What I tell you in the darkness, speak ye in the light: and 28 what ye hear in the ear, proclaim upon the housetops. And be not afraid of them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and 29 body in [10]hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and 30 not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father: but 31 the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore; 32 ye are of more value than many sparrows. Every one therefore who shall confess [11]me before men, [12]him will I also confess 33 before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. 34 Think not that I came to [13]send peace on the earth: I came not 35 to [13]send peace, but a sword. For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, 36 and the daughter in law against her mother in law: and a man's 37 foes _shall be_ they of his own household [_see Micah 7:6_]. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not 39 worthy of me. He that [14]findeth his [15]life shall lose it; and he that [16]loseth his [15]life for my sake shall find it [_see John 12:25_]. 40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me 41 receiveth him that sent me [_see John 13:20_]. He that receiveth a
