16 “ Behold idou, I egō am sending apostellō you hymeis out as hōs sheep probaton in en the midst mesos of wolves lykos; so oun be ginomai shrewd phronimos as hōs · ho serpents ophis and kai innocent akeraios as hōs · ho doves peristera. 17 And de beware prosechō of apo · ho men anthrōpos, for gar they will hand paradidōmi you hymeis over to eis the courts synedrion, and kai they will flog mastigoō you hymeis in en · ho their autos synagogues synagōgē; 18 and kai you will be brought agō before epi governors hēgemōn · de and kai kings basileus for my egō sake, as eis a testimony martyrion to them autos and kai to the ho Gentiles ethnos. 19 But de when hotan they hand paradidōmi you hymeis over , do not mē worry merimnaō about how pōs you are to speak or ē what tis you are to say laleō; for gar what tis you are to say laleō will be given didōmi to you hymeis at en that ekeinos · ho time hōra. 20 For gar it will eimi not ou be eimi you hymeis · ho speaking laleō but alla the ho Spirit pneuma of ho your hymeis Father patēr · ho speaking laleō through en you hymeis.
21 “ Brother adelphos will hand paradidōmi over · de brother adelphos to eis death thanatos, and kai a father patēr his child teknon, and kai children teknon will rise epanistēmi up against epi parents goneus and kai have them autos put to death thanatoō. 22 And kai you will be eimi hated miseō by hypo all pas on dia account of · ho my egō name onoma.

Amplified Bible
A Hard Road before Them
16 “Listen carefully: I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; so be wise as serpents, and innocent as doves [have no self-serving agenda].(A) 17 Beware of men [whose nature is to act in opposition to God], for they will hand you over to the courts and flog you in their synagogues; 18 and you will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. 19 But when they hand you over, do not worry about how or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given you within that [very] hour;(B) 20 for it is not you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
21 “Brother will betray brother to death, and the father his child; and children will rise up and rebel against their parents and cause them to be put death. 22 And you will be hated by everyone because of [your association with] My name, but it is the one who has patiently persevered and endured to the end who will be saved.
23 “When they persecute you in one city [because of your faith in Me], flee to the next; for I assure you and most solemnly say to you, you will not finish going through all the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
The Meaning of Discipleship
24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor is a bond-servant above his master. 25 It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the bond-servant like his master. If they have called the head of the house [a]Beelzebul (Satan), how much more [will they speak evil of] the members of his household.(C)
