Luke 13:28–35
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.’↗
34“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused!↗
35Behold, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!’”↗
