New Testament

Luke 13:25-33 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

25. Then, when the father of the family will have entered and shut the door, you will begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' And in response, he will say to you, 'I do not know where you are from.'

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

27. And he will say to you: 'I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity!'

28. In that place, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, yet you yourselves are expelled outside.

29. And they will arrive from the East, and the West, and the North, and the South; and they will recline at table in the kingdom of God.

30. And behold, those who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last."

31. On the same day, some of the Pharisees approached, saying to him: "Depart, and go away from here. For Herod wishes to kill you."

32. And he said to them: "Go and tell that fox: 'Behold, I cast out demons and accomplish healings, today and tomorrow. And on the third day I reach the end.'

33. Yet truly, it is necessary for me to walk today and tomorrow and the following day. For it does not fall to a prophet to perish beyond Jerusalem.
