Matthew 10:18-26

English Standard Version

^18 (A)and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, ^(B)to bear witness before them and the Gentiles. ^19 (C)When ^(D)they deliver you over, ^(E)do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for ^(F)what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. ^20 (G)For it is not you who speak, but ^(H)the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. ^21 (I)Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death, ^22 (J)and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. ^(K)But the one who endures to the end will be saved. ²³ When they ^(L)persecute you in one town, ^(M)flee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel ^(N)before the Son of Man comes.

^24 (O)“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant^[a] above his master. ²⁵ It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. ^(P)If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign^[b] those of his household.

Have No Fear

²⁶ “So have no fear of them, ^(Q)for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
