12 “But before all this, they shall lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the congregations and prisons, and be brought before sovereigns and rulers for My Name’s sake.
13 “And it shall turn out to you for a witness.
14 “Therefore, resolve in your hearts not to premeditate on what to answer.
15 “For I shall give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries shall not be able to refute or resist.
16 “And you shall also be betrayed by parents and brothers and relatives and friends. And some of you shall be put to death.
17 “And you shall be hated by all because of My Name.
18 “But not a hair of your head shall be lost at all.
