7And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end.
8Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles.
9But take care: for they will give you up to the Sanhedrins; and in Synagogues you will be whipped; and you will be taken before rulers and kings because of me, for a sign to them.
10And the good news has first to be given to all the nations.
11And when you are taken and given up to be judged, do not be troubled about what to say: but whatever is given to you in that hour, say: because it is not you who say it, but the Holy Spirit.
12And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child; and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death.
13And you will be hated by all men, because of my name; but he who goes through to the end will have salvation.
