Mark 13:11

Next

But when they shall lead [you], and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.

But {G1161} when {G3752} they shall lead {G71} you, and deliver {G3860} you {G5209} up {G3860}, take {G4305} no {G3361} thought beforehand {G4305} what {G5101} ye shall speak {G2980}, neither {G3366} do ye premeditate {G3191}: but {G235} whatsoever {G3739} shall be {G1437} given {G1325} you {G5213} in {G1722} that {G1565} hour {G5610}, that {G5124} speak {G2980} ye: for {G1063} it is {G2075} not {G3756} ye {G5210} that speak {G2980}, but {G235} the Holy {G40} Ghost {G4151}.

Now when they arrest you and bring you to trial, don't worry beforehand about what to say. Rather, say whatever is given you when the time comes; for it will not be just you speaking, but the Ruach HaKodesh.

But when they arrest you and hand you over, do not worry beforehand what to say. Instead, speak whatever you are given at that time, for it will not be you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.

And when they lead you to judgment, and deliver you up, be not anxious beforehand what ye shall speak: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye; for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Spirit.
