Matthew 10:18-19

10:18 And you will be brought before governors and kings ¹  because of me, as a witness to them and the Gentiles. 10:19 Whenever ²  they hand you over for trial, do not worry about how to speak or what to say, ³  for what you should say will be given to you at that time. ⁴ 

[10:18]  ¹ sn These statements look at persecution both from a Jewish context as the mention of courts and synagogues suggests, and from a Gentile one as the reference to governors and kings suggests. Some fulfillment of Jewish persecution can be seen in Acts.

[10:19]  ² tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[10:19]  ³ tn Grk “how or what you might speak.”

[10:19]  ⁴ tn Grk “in that hour.”
