Matthew 10:27-33

27 1WhatG3739 I tellG3004 you in the darknessG4653, tellG3004 in the lightG5457; and whatG3739 you hearG191 whispered in your earG3775, proclaimG2784 2on the housetopsG1430 G1909. 28And do not beG5399 afraidG5399 of thoseG3588 who killG615 the bodyG4983 but are unableG3361 G1410 to killG615 the soulG5590; but ratherG3123 3fearG5399 Him who is ableG1410 to destroyG622 bothG2532 soulG5590 and bodyG4983 in 4 5hellG1067. 29 6Are twoG1417 sparrowsG4765 not soldG4453 for an 7assarionG787? And yet not oneG1520 of them will fallG4098 to the groundG1093 apartG427 from your FatherG3962. 30But 8evenG2532 the hairsG2359 of your headG2776 are allG3956 countedG705. 31SoG3767 do not fearG5399; 9you are moreG1308 valuableG1308 than a greatG4183 numberG4183 of sparrowsG4765.

32“ThereforeG3767, 10everyoneG3956 whoG3748 11confessesG3670 Me beforeG1715 peopleG444, I will alsoG2532 confessG3670 12him beforeG1715 My FatherG3962 who is in heavenG3772. 33But 13whoeverG3748 G302 deniesG720 Me beforeG1715 peopleG444, I will alsoG2532 denyG720 him beforeG1715 My FatherG3962 who is in heavenG3772.
