Matthew 10:21-31

21 "Brother will hand over brother to death; a father will hand over his child. Children will rebel against their parents and kill them.

22 Everyone will hate you because you are committed to me. But the person who patiently endures to the end will be saved.

23 So when they persecute you in one city, flee to another. I can guarantee this truth: Before you have gone through every city in Israel, the Son of Man will come.

24 "A student is not better than his teacher. Nor is a slave better than his owner.

25 It is enough for a student to become like his teacher and a slave like his owner. If they have called the owner of the house Beelzebul, they will certainly call the family members the same name.

26 So don't be afraid of them. Nothing has been covered that will not be exposed. Whatever is secret will be made known.

27 Tell in the daylight what I say to you in the dark. Shout from the housetops what you hear whispered.

28 Don't be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the one who can destroy both body and soul in hell.

29 "Aren't two sparrows sold for a penny? Not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's permission.

30 Every hair on your head has been counted.

31 Don't be afraid! You are worth more than many sparrows.
