Luke 21:12

Jesus Foretells Wars And Persecution

¹¹ And great earthquakes will be in various places, and famines and plagues. And there will be fearful sights and great signs from the sky. ¹² But before all these things, they will throw their hands on you, and will persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake. ¹³ But it will go out from you for testimony.
