Matthew 10:16-23

LITV(i) 16 Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore, be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. 17 But beware of men. For they will betray you to sanhedrins, and they will flog you in their synagogues. 18 And also you will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations. 19 But when they deliver you up, do not be anxious how or what you should say, for it is given to you in that hour what you should say. 20 For you are not the ones speaking, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you. 21 But brother will betray brother to death, and the father his child. And children will rise up against parents and will put them to death. 22 And you will be hated by all on account of My name, but the one enduring to the end shall be kept safe. 23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For truly I say to you, In no way will you have finished the cities of Israel until the Son of man comes.
