He will swallow up death forever! And the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from all faces. And He shall turn aside the reproach of His people from all the earth; for Jehovah has spoken.
Hear Me, those knowing righteousness, the people of My Law in their heart; do not fear the reproach of man, and do not be bowed from their blasphemings.
Hear the Word of Jehovah, those who tremble at His Word. Your brothers who hate you, who drive you out for My name’s sake, have said, Jehovah is glorified. But He shall appear in your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
It is enough for the disciple to become as his teacher, and the slave as his lord. If they called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more they of his household?
And everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for the sake of My name, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
But you watch yourselves, for they will give you over to sanhedrins and to synagogues. You will be beaten, and you will stand before governors and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them.
But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you, and will persecute you, giving you over into the synagogues and prisons, being led away before kings and governors on account of My name.
Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they cut you off, and will reproach you, and will cast out your name as evil, on account of the Son of Man;
If you are reviled in the name of Christ, you are blessed, because “the Spirit of God and of glory rests on you.” Truly, according to them, He is blasphemed; but according to you, He is glorified. Isa. 11:2
