A, disciple, is not above, the teacher, nor, a servant, above, his lord:

30 but the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
But, even the hairs of, your, head, have all been numbered.

34 "Do not think that I came to send peace on the earth. I did not come to send peace, but a sword.
Do not think, that I came to thrust peace upon the earth, —I came not to thrust, peace, but, a sword;
35 For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
For I came to set at variance—a man, against, his father, and, a daughter, against, her mother, and, a bride, against, her mother-in-law;
36 And a person's foes will be those of his own household.
And, a man foes, are, they of his own house.

He that loveth father or mother above me, is not, worthy, of me, —and, he that loveth son or daughter above me, is not, worthy, of me;
38 And whoever does not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.
And, he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not, worthy, of me.

He that hath found his life, shall lose it, —and, he that hath lost his life, for my sake, shall find it.
40 Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me.
He that giveth welcome unto you, unto me, giveth welcome, and, he that, unto me, giveth welcome, giveth welcome—unto him that sent me forth.
41 The one who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and the one who receives a righteous person because he is a righteous person will receive a righteous person's reward.

42 And whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink because he is a disciple, truly I tell you he will in no way lose his reward."
And, whosoever shall give to drink—unto one of these little ones—a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, Verily, I say unto you, in nowise, shall lose his reward!
