Luke 12:4-7
Christian Standard Bible
Fear God
4 “I say to you, my friends,(A) don’t fear(B) those who kill the body, and after that can do nothing more. 5 But I will show you the one to fear: Fear(C) him who has authority to throw people into hell(D) after death. Yes, I say to you, this is the one to fear! 6 Aren’t five sparrows sold for two pennies?[a] Yet not one of them is forgotten in God’s sight.(E) 7 Indeed, the hairs of your head are all counted. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Fear God Rather Than People
4 “And I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after these things do not have anything more to do. 5 But I will show you whom you should fear: fear the one who has authority, after the killing, to throw you[a] into hell! Yes, I tell you, fear this one! 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten in the sight of God. 7 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered! Do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
