Matthew 10:26-33
Legacy Standard Bible
26 “Therefore do not (A)fear them, (B)for there is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known. 27 (C)What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim (D)upon the housetops. 28 And do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather (E)fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in [a](F)hell. 29 (G)Are not two sparrows sold for an [b]assarion? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. 30 But (H)the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So do not fear; (I)you are more valuable than many sparrows.
32 “Therefore (J)everyone who [c]confesses Me before men, I will also confess [d]him before My Father who is in heaven. 33 But (K)whoever [e]denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.

2 (A)But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known. 3 Accordingly, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have [a]whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon (B)the housetops.
4 “But I say to you, (C)My friends, do not fear those who kill the body and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will show you whom to fear: (D)fear the One who, after He has killed, has authority to cast into [b](E)hell; yes, I tell you, fear Him! 6 Are not (F)five sparrows sold for two [c]assaria? Yet not one of them is forgotten before God. 7 (G)Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows.
