Matthew 12:39-50
39But he answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto them, An evilG4190 and adulterousG3428 generationG1074 seeketh after a signG4592; and there shall no signG4592 be givenG1325 to it but the signG4592 of JonahG2495 the prophetG4396: 40for as JonahG2495 wasG1510 threeG5140 daysG2250 and threeG5140 nightsG3571 in the bellyG2836 of the whale; so shall the SonG5207 of manG444 beG1510 threeG5140 daysG2250 and threeG5140 nightsG3571 in the heartG2588 of the earthG1093. 41The menG435 of Nineveh shall standG450 up in the judgmentG2920 with this generationG1074, and shall condemnG2632 it: for they repentedG3340 at the preachingG2782 of JonahG2495; and beholdG2400, a greaterG4183 than JonahG2495 is hereG5602. 42The queenG938 of the southG3558 shall riseG1453 up in the judgmentG2920 with this generationG1074, and shall condemnG2632 it: for she cameG2064 from the endsG4009 of the earthG1093 to hearG191 the wisdomG4678 of SolomonG4672; and beholdG2400, a greaterG4183 than SolomonG4672 is hereG5602. 43But the uncleanG169 spiritG4151, whenG3752 he is goneG1831 out of the manG444, passeth through waterlessG504 placesG5117, seekingG2212 restG372, and findeth it not. 44Then he saith, I will returnG1994 into my houseG3624 whence I cameG2064 out; and when he is comeG2064, he findeth it empty, sweptG4563, and garnished. 45Then goeth he, and taketh with himself sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 moreG4190 evilG4190 than himself, and they enterG1525 in and dwellG2730 there: and the lastG2078 state of that manG444 becometh worse than the firstG4413. EvenG2532 so shall it beG1510 alsoG2532 unto this evilG4190 generationG1074.
46While he was yet speakingG2980 to the multitudesG3793, beholdG2400, his motherG3384 and his brethren stoodG2476 without, seekingG2212 to speakG2980 to him. 47And oneG5100 saidG3004 unto him, BeholdG2400, thy motherG3384 and thy brethren standG2476 without, seekingG2212 to speakG2980 to thee. 48But he answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto him that toldG3004 him, Who isG1510 my motherG3384? and who areG1510 my brethren? 49And he stretchedG1614 forth his handG5495 towards his disciplesG3101, and saidG3004, BeholdG2400, my motherG3384 and my brethren! 50For whosoever shall do the will of my FatherG3962 who isG1510 in heavenG3772, he isG1510 my brotherG80, and sisterG79, and motherG3384.
