Luke 21:12-18 But before all this takes place, people will arrest you and persecute you, and turn you over to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake.

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² But before all this takes place, people will arrest you and persecute you, and turn you over to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake. ¹³ It will furnish you an opportunity to testify. ¹⁴ So you must purpose in your hearts not to prepare beforehand how to make your defense, ¹⁵ for I will give you such wisdom of speech as all your opponents combined will not be able to resist and refute. ¹⁶ Yes, you will be betrayed even by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends, and they will put some of you to death, ¹⁷ and you will be continuously hated by everyone, because you bear my name. ¹⁸ And yet not a single hair on your head will perish.
