But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

Ihr aber, sehet euch vor! Denn sie werden euch überantworten vor die Rathäuser und Schulen; und ihr müßt gestäupt werden, und vor Fürsten und Könige geführt werden um meinetwillen, zu einem Zeugnis über sie.
Mas vosotros mirad por vosotros: porque os entregarán en los concilios, y en sinagogas seréis azotados: y delante de presidentes y de reyes seréis llamados por causa de mí, en testimonio a ellos.
Prenez garde à vous-mêmes. On vous livrera aux tribunaux, et vous serez battus de verges dans les synagogues; vous comparaîtrez devant des gouverneurs et devant des rois, à cause de moi, pour leur servir de témoignage.
Queste cose saranno solo principii di dolori; or prendete guardia a voi stessi; perciocchè sarete messi in man de’ concistori, e sarete battuti nelle raunanze; e sarete fatti comparire davanti a’ rettori, ed ai re, per cagion mia, in testimonianza a loro.
Mas olhai por vós mesmos, porque vos entregarão aos concílios e às sinagogas; e sereis açoitados, e sereis apresentados perante presidentes e reis, por amor de mim, para lhes servir de testemunho.
但你們自己要謹慎;因為有人要把你們交給議會,並且你們在會堂裏要受鞭打,又為我的緣故站在統治者和君王面前,對他們作見證。
