Exegesis
The verse begins with the emphatic subject egō {ἐγὼ | egṓ} ‘I’, placing the speaker in focus before the postpositive connector gar {γὰρ | gar} ‘for’, which ties the promise to the preceding context.
In context — Luke 21:15
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom , which all those opposing you will not be able to withstand or answer back.
