But when they put you up take no thought, how, or what ye shall speak,
for it shall be given you even in that same hour, what ye shall say.
For it is not ye that speak, but the spirit of your father which
speaketh in you. The brother shall betray the brother to death, and the
father the son. And the children shall arise against their fathers, and
mothers, and shall put them to death, and ye shall be hated of all men,
for my name. But whosoever shall continue unto the end, shall be saved.
When they persecute you in one city, fly into another. I tell you for a
truth, ye shall not finish all the cities of Israhel, till the son of
man be come. The disciple is not above his master: Nor yet the servant
above his lord. It is enough for the disciple to be as his master is,
and that the servant be as his lord is. If they have called the lord of
the house beelzebub: how much more shall they call them of his
household so? Fear them not therefore.
There is nothing so close, that shall not be opened, and nothing so
hid, that shall not be known.
What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light. And what ye hear
in the ear that preach ye on the house tops.
And fear ye not them which kill the body, and be not able to kill the
soul. But rather fear him, which is able to destroy both soul and body
in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? And none of them
doth light on the ground, without your father. And now are all the
hairs of your heads numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more
value, than many sparrows.
Whosoever therefore knowledgeth me before men, him will I knowledge
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.
Think not, that I am come to send peace into the earth. I came not to
send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against
his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in
law against her mother in law: And a man's foes shall be, they of his
own household.
He that loveth his father, or mother more than me, is not worthy of me.
And he that loveth his son, or daughter more than me, is not meet for
me. And he that taketh not his cross and followeth me, is not meet for
me. He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that loseth his
life for my sake, shall find it.
He that receiveth you, receiveth me: and he that receiveth me,
receiveth him that sent me. He that receiveth a prophet in the name of
a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward. And he that receiveth a
righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive the reward
of a righteous man. And whosoever shall give unto one of these little
ones to, drink a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple: I
tell you of a truth, he shall not lose his reward.
The .xj. Chapter.
And it came to pass when Iesus had ended his precepts unto his
disciples, he departed thence, to preach and teach in their cities.
