Luke 13:26-35

26 "Then you will 1begin to say, 'We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets ';
27 and He will say, 'I tell you, 2I do not know where you are from; 3DEPART FROM ME, ALL YOU EVILDOERS.'
28 "4In 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 being thrown out.
29 "And they 5will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.
30 "And behold, 6some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last."
31 Just at that time some Pharisees approached, saying to Him, "Go away, leave here, for 7Herod wants to kill You."
32 And He said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I 8reach My goal.'
33 "Nevertheless 9I must journey on today and tomorrow and the next day; for it cannot * be that a 10prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.
34 "11O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, 12just * as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not have it!
35 "Behold, your house is left to you desolate; and I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, '13BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD!' "
