Matthew 10:21–25 · Berean Standard Bible
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.
23 When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
24 A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.
25 It is enough for a disciple to be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!
