Matthew 10:26-33
New King James Version
26 Therefore do not fear them. (A)For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.
Jesus Teaches the Fear of God(B)
27 “Whatever I tell you in the dark, (C)speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. 28 (D)And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather (E)fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in [a]hell. 29 Are not two (F)sparrows sold for a [b]copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. 30 (G)But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
Confess Christ Before Men(H)
32 (I)“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, (J)him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. 33 (K)But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 10:26-33
American Standard Version
26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. 27 What I tell you in the darkness, speak ye in the light; and what ye hear in the ear, proclaim upon the house-tops. 28 And be not afraid of them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in [a]hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father: 30 but the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. 32 Every one therefore who shall confess [b]me before men, [c]him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. 33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 10:26-33
New International Version
26 “So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.(A) 27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. 28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One(B) who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[a] 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.(C) 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.(D)
32 “Whoever acknowledges me before others,(E) I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. 33 But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.(F)
