Read in context

Matthew 10:18–22 · Berean Standard Bible

18 On My account, you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.

19 But when they hand you over, do not worry about how to respond or what to say. In that hour you will be given what to say.

20 For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

21 Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

22 You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.
