10 Then he said to them: "People will rise up against people, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and pestilences, and famines, and terrors from heaven; and there will be great signs.
12 But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, handing you over to synagogues and into custody, dragging you before kings and governors, because of my name.
13 And this will be an opportunity for you to give testimony.
14 Therefore, set this in your hearts: that you should not consider in advance how you might respond.
15 For I will give to you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries will not be able to resist or contradict.
16 And you will be handed over by your parents, and brothers, and relatives, and friends. And they will bring about the death of some of you.
