Psalms 35:19
35:19 Do not let those who are my enemies for no reason gloat over me!
Do not let those who hate me without cause carry out their wicked schemes!
Psalms 69:4
69:4 Those who hate me without cause are more numerous than the hairs of my head.
Those who want to destroy me, my enemies for no reason, outnumber me.
They make me repay what I did not steal!
Matthew 10:22
10:22 And you will be hated by everyone because of my name. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
John 15:18-25
The World’s Hatred
15:18 “If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me first.
15:19 If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you do not belong to the world, but I chose you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you.
15:20 Remember what I told you, ‘A slave is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they obeyed my word, they will obey yours too.
15:21 But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know the one who sent me.
15:22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. But they no longer have any excuse for their sin.
15:23 The one who hates me hates my Father too.
15:24 If I had not performed among them the miraculous deeds that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have seen the deeds and have hated both me and my Father.
15:25 Now this happened to fulfill the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without reason.’
Acts 4:25-28
4:25 who said by the Holy Spirit through
your servant David our forefather,
‘Why do the nations rage,
and the peoples plot foolish things?
4:26 The kings of the earth stood together,
and the rulers assembled together,
against the Lord and against his Christ.’
4:27 “For indeed both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, assembled together in this city against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed,
4:28 to do as much as your power and your plan had decided beforehand would happen.
