Luke 17:20-37

Common English Bible CEB

20 Pharisees asked Jesus when God's kingdom was coming. He replied, "God's kingdom isn't coming with signs that are easily noticed.

21 Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is!' or ‘There it is!' Don't you see? God's kingdom is already among you."

22 Then Jesus said to the disciples, “The time will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Human One, and you won't see it.

23 People will say to you, ‘Look there!' or ‘Look here!' Don't leave or go chasing after them.

24 The Human One will appear on his day in the same way that a flash of lightning lights up the sky from one end to the other.

25 However, first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26 "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be during the days of the Human One.

27 People were eating, drinking, marrying, and being given in marriage until the day Noah entered the ark and the flood came and destroyed them all.

28 Likewise in the days of Lot, people were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, and building.

29 But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30 That's the way it will be on the day the Human One is revealed.

31 On that day, those on the roof, whose possessions are in the house, shouldn't come down to grab them. Likewise, those in the field shouldn't turn back.

32 Remember Lot's wife!

33 Whoever tries to preserve their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life will preserve it.

34 I tell you, on that night two people will be in the same bed: one will be taken and the other left.

35 Two women will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left."

37 The disciples asked, "Where, Lord?" Jesus said, "The vultures gather wherever there's a dead body."

New Revised Standard NRS

20 Once Jesus was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, and he answered, "The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed;

21 nor will they say, "Look, here it is!' or "There it is!' For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you."

22 Then he said to the disciples, "The days are coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

23 They will say to you, "Look there!' or "Look here!' Do not go, do not set off in pursuit.

24 For as the 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 endure much suffering and be rejected by this generation.

26 Just as it was in the days of Noah, so too it will be in the days of the Son of Man.

27 They were eating and drinking, and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed all of them.

28 Likewise, just as it was in the days of Lot: they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building,

29 but on the day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from heaven and destroyed all of them

30 —it will be like that on the day that the Son of Man is revealed.

31 On that day, anyone on the housetop who has belongings in the house must not come down to take them away; and likewise anyone in the field must not turn back.

32 Remember Lot's wife.

33 Those who try to make their life secure will lose it, but those who lose their life will keep it.

34 I tell you, on that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.

35 There will be two women grinding meal together; one will be taken and the other left."

37 Then they asked him, "Where, Lord?" He said to them, "Where the corpse is, there the vultures will gather."
