Luke 21:12

Jesus Foretells Wars And Persecution

¹¹ great shakings also in every place, and famines, and pestilences, there shall be; fearful things also, and great signs from heaven there shall be; ¹² and before all these, they shall lay on you their hands, and persecute, delivering up to synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and governors for my name's sake; ¹³ and it shall become to you for a testimony.
