Exegesis
The negative particle μὴ {μὴ | mē} governs προμελετᾶν {προμελετᾶν | pro-me-le-tân} to forbid advance rehearsal, and ἀπολογηθῆναι {ἀπολογηθῆναι | a-po-lo-gē-thê-nai} completes the thought by naming the defense speech that must not be precomposed. The syntax compresses the response into a single inner decision: place the matter firmly within the will, and do not prepare a speech in advance.
In context — Luke 21:14
Therefore, settle in your hearts not to plan beforehand how to answer .
