New Testament

Luke 13:20-27 American Standard Version (ASV)

20. And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?

21. It is like unto leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.

22. And he went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and journeying on unto Jerusalem.

23. And one said unto him, Lord, are they few that are saved? And he said unto them,

24. Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

25. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;

26. then shall ye begin to say, We did eat and drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets;

27. and he shall say, I tell you, I know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
