Matthew 12:39-50

39But he, answeringG611, saidG3004 to them, A wickedG4190 and adulterousG3428 generationG1074 seeksG1934 after a signG4592, and a signG4592 shall not be givenG1325 to it save the signG4592 of Jonas the prophetG4396. 40For evenG2532 as Jonas wasG1510 in the bellyG2836 of the great fish threeG5140 daysG2250 and threeG5140 nightsG3571, thusG3779 shall the SonG5207 of manG444 beG1510 in the heartG2588 of the earthG1093 threeG5140 daysG2250 and threeG5140 nightsG3571. 41NinevitesG3536 shall standG450 up in the judgmentG2920 with this generationG1074, and shall condemnG2632 it: for they repentedG3340 at the preachingG2782 of Jonas; and beholdG2400, moreG4183 than Jonas [is] hereG5602. 42A 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, moreG4183 than SolomonG4672 [is] hereG5602. 43But whenG3752 the uncleanG169 spiritG4151 has goneG1831 out of the manG444, he goesG1831 through dry placesG5117, seekingG2212 restG372, and does not findG2147 [it]. 44Then he saysG3004, I will returnG1994 to my houseG3624 whence I cameG2064 out; and having comeG2064, he findsG2147 [it] unoccupied, sweptG4563, and adornedG2885. 45Then he goesG4198 and takesG3880 with himself sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 worse than himself, and enteringG1525 in, they dwellG2730 there; and the lastG2078 condition of that manG444 becomesG1096 worse than the firstG4413. ThusG3779 shall it beG1510 to this wickedG4190 generationG1074 alsoG2532. 46But while he was yet speakingG2980 to the crowdsG3793, beholdG2400, his motherG3384 and his brethren stoodG2476 without, seekingG2212 to speakG2980 to him. 47Then oneG5100 saidG3004 unto him, BeholdG2400, thy motherG3384 and thy brethren are standingG2476 without, seekingG2212 to speakG2980 to thee. 48But he answeringG611 saidG3004 to him that spokeG3004 to him, Who isG1510 my motherG3384, and who areG1510 my brethren? 49And, stretchingG1614 out his handG5495 to his disciplesG3101, he saidG3004, BeholdG2400 my motherG3384 and my brethren; 50for whosoever shall do the will of my FatherG3962 who isG1510 in [the] heavensG3772, he isG1510 my brotherG80, and sisterG79, and motherG3384.
