Matthew 10:23-33

²³But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most assuredly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel, until the Son of Man has come.

²⁴"A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord. ²⁵It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more them of his household! ²⁶Therefore don`t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered, that will not be revealed; and hidden, that will not be known. <sup>27</sup>What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops. <sup>28</sup>Don`t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. ²⁹"Aren`t two sparrows sold for an assarion? Not one of them falls on the ground apart from your Father`s will, ³⁰but the very hairs of your head are all numbered. ³¹Therefore don`t be afraid, you are of more value than many sparrows. ³²Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. ³³But whoever denies me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven.
