Ecclesiastes 10:4b Calmness can lay great errors to rest.
Matthew 10:18-20 On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say for it will not be you speaking but the spirit of your Father speaking through you.
