Matthew 10:17-22

17But beware of people; for they will hand you over to councils, and in their synagogues they will flog you; 18and you will be brought before governors and kings because of me, as a testimony to them and to the nations. 19But when they hand you over, do not worry about how or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. 20For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you. 21And brother will hand over brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and put them to death. 22And you will be hated by all because of my name; but the one who endures to the end, this one will be saved.

Mark 13:9-13

9But watch yourselves; they will hand you over to councils, and in synagogues you will be beaten, and before governors and kings you will stand for the sake of me, as a testimony to them. 10And first the good news must be proclaimed to all the nations. 11And when they lead you away, handing you over, do not worry beforehand what you are to say, but whatever is given you in that hour, say that; for it is not you who are speaking, but the Holy Spirit. 12And brother will hand over brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and have them put to death. 13And you will be hated by all because of my name. But the one who endures to the end, this one will be saved.

Luke 21:12-19

12But before all these things they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, handing you over to the synagogues and prisons, you being led away before kings and governors for the sake of my name. 13It will turn out for you as an opportunity for testimony. 14So settle it in your hearts not to prepare beforehand how to defend yourselves; 15for I will give you a mouth and wisdom that all those who oppose you will not be able to resist or contradict. 16And you will be handed over even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and they will put to death some of you, 17and you will be hated by all because of my name. 18And a hair of your head will certainly not perish. 19By your endurance gain your lives.
