2 Expulsarão a vós das sinagogas; mas a hora vem, quando qualquer que vos matar, pensará fazer serviço a Deus.

3 E estas coisas vos farão, porque nem ao Pai, nem a mim me conheceram.

5 E agora vou para aquele que me enviou; e nenhum de vós me pergunta: Para onde vais?

6 Porém, porque vos disse estas coisas, a tristeza encheu vosso coração.
