New Testament

Luke 17:22-29 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

22. Then he said to his disciples, “The days will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.

23. There will be those who will say to you, ‘Look, there he is,’ [or] ‘Look, here he is.’ Do not go off, do not run in pursuit.

24. For just as lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be [in his day].

25. But first he must suffer greatly and be rejected by this generation.

26. As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man;

27. they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage up to the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

28. Similarly, as it was in the days of Lot: they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building;

29. on the day when Lot left Sodom, fire and brimstone rained from the sky to destroy them all.
