Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit
8 “And I say to you, everyone who (A)confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will confess him also before the angels of God, 9 but (B)he who denies Me before men will be denied (C)before the angels of God. 10 (D)And everyone who [a]speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him, but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him. 11 Now when they bring you before (E)the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, do not (F)worry about how or what you are to speak in your defense, or what you are to say, 12 for (G)the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.”
