Matthew 10:27-33

27 1What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim 2upon the housetops. 28Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather 3fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in 4 5hell. 29 6Are not two sparrows sold for a 7cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. 30But 8the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31So do not fear; 9you are more valuable than many sparrows.

32“Therefore 10everyone who 11confesses Me before men, I will also confess 12him before My Father who is in heaven. 33But 13whoever 14denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.
