Matthew 10:28–36
28Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.↗
29“Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.↗
30But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.↗
31Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.↗
32Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.↗
33But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.↗
34“Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.↗
35For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.↗
36A man’s foes will be those of his own household.↗
