Matthew 10:17 ASV

¹⁵  Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.

¹⁶  Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

¹⁷  But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to councils, and in theirs synagogues they will scourge you;

¹⁸  yea and before governors and kings shall ye be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.

¹⁹  But when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak.
