Luke 13:29

Verse 29 of 35. The 13th of 24 chapters in Luke, in The Gospels.

25When once the master of the house has risen up and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ then he will answer and tell you, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from.’

26Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’

27He will say, ‘I tell you, I don’t know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.’

28There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in God’s Kingdom, and yourselves being thrown outside.

29They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in God’s Kingdom.

30Behold, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last.”

31On that same day, some Pharisees came, saying to him, “Get out of here and go away, for Herod wants to kill you.”

32He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.

33Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can’t be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.’
