9 but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of God’s angels.

10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

11 When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer or what you will say;

12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
