32. Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, I also will confess him before my Father who is in the heavens.
33. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in the heavens.
34. Do not think that I have come to send peace upon the earth: I have not come to send peace, but a sword.
35. For I have come to set a man at variance with his father, and the daughter with her mother, and the daughter-in-law with her mother-in-law;
36. and they of his household shall be a man's enemies.
37. He who loves father or mother above me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter above me is not worthy of me.
38. And he who does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.
