Matthew 10:28-33

NSB(i) 28 »Do not fear those who kill the body. They are not able to take away your [everlasting] life. Instead, fear him who is able to destroy both life and body in the ever-burning fires. (Greek: Gehenna: continuously burning trash fires in the valley of Hinnom.) 29 »Do two sparrows sell for a penny? Not one of them will fall on the ground without your Father knowing. 30 »Even the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 »Do not fear! You are more valuable than many sparrows. 32 »I will tell my heavenly Father about everyone who confesses me (witnesses to others about me) before men. 33 »I will deny, before my heavenly Father, anyone who denies me before men.
