nkjv Matthew:10:13-42
nkjv@Matthew:10:13 @ If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.
nkjv@Matthew:10:14 @ And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.
nkjv@Matthew:10:15 @ Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!
nkjv@Matthew:10:16 @ "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
nkjv@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues.
nkjv@Matthew:10:18 @ You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
nkjv@Matthew:10:19 @ But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak;
nkjv@Matthew:10:20 @ for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
nkjv@Matthew:10:21 @ "Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
nkjv@Matthew:10:22 @ And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.
nkjv@Matthew:10:23 @ When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
nkjv@Matthew:10:24 @ "A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.
nkjv@Matthew:10:25 @ It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household!
nkjv@Matthew:10:26 @ Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.
nkjv@Matthew:10:27 @ "Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops.
nkjv@Matthew:10:28 @ And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
nkjv@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will.
nkjv@Matthew:10:30 @ But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
nkjv@Matthew:10:31 @ Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
nkjv@Matthew:10:32 @ "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.
nkjv@Matthew:10:33 @ But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.
nkjv@Matthew:10:34 @ "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.
nkjv@Matthew:10:35 @ For I have come to "set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law';
nkjv@Matthew:10:36 @ and "a man's enemies will be those of his own household.'
nkjv@Matthew:10:37 @ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
nkjv@Matthew:10:38 @ And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.
nkjv@Matthew:10:39 @ He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.
nkjv@Matthew:10:40 @ "He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.
nkjv@Matthew:10:41 @ He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.
nkjv@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward."
