Rather fear him (B)who can destroy both soul and body in hell.[a] 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?[b] And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. 30 But (C)even the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Fear not, therefore; (D)you are of more value than many sparrows.
