Luke 21:17 In-Context

15 for I will give you the right words and such wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to reply or refute you!

16 Even those closest to you—your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends—will betray you. They will even kill some of you.

17 And everyone will hate you because you are my followers.

18 But not a hair of your head will perish!

19 By standing firm, you will win your souls.
