`And whoever may not receive you nor hear your words, coming forth from that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet,
15

17
And, take ye heed of men, for they will give you up to sanhedrims, and in their synagogues they will scourge you,
18
and before governors and kings ye shall be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
19
`And whenever they may deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye may speak, for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak;
20
for ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father that is speaking in you.
21
`And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,
22
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end, he shall be saved.
23
`And whenever they may persecute you in this city, flee to the other, for verily I say to you, ye may not have completed the cities of Israel till the Son of Man may come.
