New Testament

Luke 13:28-35 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

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, but yourselves thrown outside!

29. And they will come from east and west, and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.

30. And behold, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.”

31. At that same hour some Pharisees came up and said to him, “Go out and depart from here, because Herod wants to kill you!”

32. And he said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I am expelling demons and performing healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will complete my work.’

33. Nevertheless, it is necessary for me to be on the way today and tomorrow and on the next day, because it is not possible for a prophet to perish outside Jerusalem.

34. “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How many times I wanted to gather your children together the way a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you were not willing!

35. Behold, your house has been left to you! And I tell you, you will never see me until the time will come when you say, ‘Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!’ ”
