17
But beware of men. For they will deliver you up in councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.
18
And you shall be brought before governors, and before kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles:
19
But when they shall deliver you up, take no thought how or what to speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what to speak:
20
For it is not you that speak, but the spirit of your Father that speaketh in you.
21
The brother also shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the son; and the children shall rise up against their parents, and shall put them to death.
22
And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved.
23
And when they shall persecute you in this city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you shall not finish all the cities of Israel, till the Son of man come.
24
The disciple is not above the master, nor the servant above his lord.
25
It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the good man of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household?
26
Therefore fear them not. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed: nor hid, that shall not be known.
27
That which I tell you in the dark, speak ye in the light: and that which you hear in the ear, preach ye upon the housetops.
