Mark 13:9-13
Contemporary English Version
9 (A) Be on your guard! You will be taken to courts and beaten with whips in their synagogues. And because of me, you will have to stand before rulers and kings to tell about your faith. 10 But before the end comes, the good news must be preached to all nations.
11 When you are arrested, don't worry about what you will say. You will be given the right words when the time comes. But you will not really be the ones speaking. Your words will come from the Holy Spirit.
12 Brothers and sisters will betray each other and have each other put to death. Parents will betray their own children, and children will turn against their parents and have them killed. 13 (B) Everyone will hate you because of me. But if you keep on being faithful right to the end, you will be saved.

English Standard Version
9 (A)“But (B)be on your guard. For they will deliver you over to councils, and you will be beaten (C)in synagogues, and you will stand before (D)governors and (E)kings for my sake, (F)to bear witness before them. 10 And the gospel must first be proclaimed (G)to all nations. 11 And when they bring you to trial and deliver you over, (H)do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say, but say (I)whatever is given you in that hour, (J)for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. 12 (K)And brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death. 13 (L)And you will be hated by all for my name's sake. (M)But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
