8 “I say to you, everyone who acknowledges me before men,+ the Son of man will also acknowledge him before the angels of God.+ 9 But whoever disowns me before men will be disowned before the angels of God.+

5 The one who conquers+ will thus be dressed in white garments,+ and I will by no means blot out* his name from the book of life,+ but I will acknowledge his name before my Father and before his angels.+
