## Matthew 10:21-25 in Context (Verses 18–28 KJV)
 
 [18 ](/kjv/matthew/10/18) And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/matthew/10/19) But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/matthew/10/20) For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
 
 [21 ](/kjv/matthew/10/21) And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against *their* parents, and cause them to be put to death.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/matthew/10/22) And ye shall be hated of all *men* for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/matthew/10/23) But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/matthew/10/24) The disciple is not above *his* master, nor the servant above his lord.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/matthew/10/25) It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more *shall they call* them of his household?
 
 [26 ](/kjv/matthew/10/26) Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/matthew/10/27) What I tell you in darkness, *that* speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, *that* preach ye upon the housetops.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/matthew/10/28) And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
 
[Matthew 9](/kjv/matthew/9) [Matthew 11](/kjv/matthew/11)
