22 And (A)you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. (B)But he who endures to the end will be saved. 23 (C)When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have (D)gone through the cities of Israel (E)before the Son of Man comes.

24 (F)“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If (G)they have called the master of the house [a]Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household! 26 Therefore do not fear them. (H)For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.

Jesus Teaches the Fear of God(I)

27 “Whatever I tell you in the dark, (J)speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. 28 (K)And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather (L)fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in [b]hell.
