Matthew 25:35-45

35 For when I was hungry, you gave me food; when I was thirsty, you gave me drink; when I was homeless, you gave me a welcome;
36 when I was ill-clad, you clothed me; when I was sick, you visited me; when I was in prison, you came to see me.'
37 "`When, Lord,' the righteous will reply, `did we see Thee hungry, and feed Thee; or thirsty, and give Thee drink?
38 When did we see Thee homeless, and give Thee a welcome? or ill-clad, and clothe Thee?
39 When did we see Thee sick or in prison, and come to see Thee?'
40 "But the King will answer them, "`In solemn truth I tell you that in so far as you rendered such services to one of the humblest of these my brethren, you rendered them to myself.'
41 "Then will He say to those at His left, "`Begone from me, with the curse resting upon you, into the Fire of the Ages, which has been prepared for the Devil and his angels.
42 For when I was hungry, you gave me nothing to eat; when thirsty, you gave me nothing to drink;
43 when homeless, you gave me no welcome; ill-clad, you clothed me not; sick or in prison, you visited me not.'
44 "Then will they also answer, "`Lord, when did we see Thee hungry or thirsty or homeless or ill-clad or sick or in prison, and not come to serve Thee?'
45 "But he will reply, "`In solemn truth I tell you that in so far as you withheld such services from one of the humblest of these, you withheld them from me.'
