Yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's permission. ^{▼▼Lit. apart from your Father} 30 Indeed, even the hairs on your head have all been counted!1Sam 14:45; 2Sam 14:11; Luke 21:18; Acts 27:34 31 So stop being ^{▼▼Or don't be} afraid. You are worth more than a bunch of sparrows.”
