Luke 21:12-19

New King James Version

^12 (A)But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and ^(B)prisons. ^(C)You will be brought before kings and rulers ^(D)for My name’s sake. ¹³ But ^(E)it will turn out for you as an occasion for testimony. ^14 (F)Therefore settle it in your hearts not to meditate beforehand on what you will ^[a]answer; ¹⁵ for I will give you a mouth and wisdom ^(G)which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or ^[b]resist. ^16 (H)You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put ^(I)some of you to death. ¹⁷ And ^(J)you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. ^18 (K)But not a hair of your head shall be lost. ¹⁹ By your patience possess your souls.
