Not Peace, but a Sword

³⁴^(A)“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. ^(B)I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. ³⁵^(C)For I have come ^(D)to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. ³⁶^(E)And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. ³⁷^(F)Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. ³⁸And ^(G)whoever does not take his cross and ^(H)follow me is not worthy of me. ³⁹^(I)Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
