Luke 12:8-12
New International Version
8 “I tell you, whoever publicly acknowledges me before others, the Son of Man will also acknowledge before the angels of God.(A) 9 But whoever disowns me before others will be disowned(B) before the angels of God. 10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man(C) will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.(D)
11 “When you are brought before synagogues, rulers and authorities, do not worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say,(E) 12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.”(F)
Luke 12:8-12
International Standard Version
Acknowledging the Messiah(A)
8 “But I tell you, the Son of Man will acknowledge before God’s angels everyone who acknowledges me before people. 9 But whoever denies me before people will be denied before God’s angels. 10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but the person who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit won’t be forgiven. 11 When people[a] bring you before synagogue leaders,[b] rulers, or authorities, don’t worry about how you will defend yourselves or what[c] you will say, 12 because at that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you are to say.”
