Luke 12:1-3

Contemporary English Version

Warnings

12 ^(A) As thousands of people crowded around Jesus and were stepping on each other, he told his disciples:

Be sure to guard against the dishonest teaching^[a] of the Pharisees! It is their way of fooling people. ²^(B) Everything that is hidden will be found out, and every secret will be known. ³Whatever you say in the dark will be heard when it is day. Whatever you whisper in a closed room will be shouted from the housetops.
