1 “I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away. 2 They will ^gput you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you ^hwill think he is offering service to God. 3 And ⁱthey will do these things because they have not ^jknown the Father, nor me. 4 But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may ^kremember that I told them to you.

“I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.
