Matthew 10:28-31
International Standard Version
28 Stop being[a] afraid of those who kill the body but can’t kill the soul. Instead, be afraid of the one who can destroy both body and soul in hell.[b]
29 “Two sparrows are sold for a penny, aren’t they? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father’s permission.[c] 30 Indeed, even the hairs on your head have all been counted! 31 So stop being[d] afraid. You are worth more than a bunch of sparrows.”

28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One(A) who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[a] 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.(B) 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.(C)
