Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)

⁴ And I say to you My friends, do not fear anything from^[a] the ones killing the body, and after these things not having anything more to do. ⁵ But I will show you Whom you should fear— fear the One having the authority to throw into Gehenna^[b] after the killing. Yes, I say to you, fear this One. ⁶ Are not five sparrows sold for two assarion^[c]? And one of them has not been forgotten before God. ⁷ Yet even the hairs of your head have all been numbered. Do not be fearing; you are more valuable than many sparrows. ⁸ And I say to you, everyone who confesses Me in front of people, the Son of Man also will confess him in front of the angels of God. ⁹ But the one having denied Me before people will be denied before the angels of God. ¹⁰ And everyone who shall speak a word against the Son of Man— it will be forgiven to him. But to the one having blasphemed against the Holy Spirit— it will not be forgiven. ¹¹ And whenever they bring you in before the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, do not be anxious-about how or what you should speak-in-defense, or what you should say. ¹² For the Holy Spirit will teach you at the very hour the things which you ought-to say”.
