Luke 12:54-59

54And He was alsoG2532 sayingG3004 to the crowdsG3793, “1WhenG3752 you seeG3708 a cloudG3507 risingG393 in the westG1424, immediatelyG2112 you sayG3004, ‘A showerG3655 is comingG2064,’ and soG3779 it turnsG1096 out. 55And whenG3752 you see a southG3558 windG3558 blowingG4154, you sayG3004, ‘It will be a 2hotG2742 day,’ and it turnsG1096 out that way. 56You hypocritesG5273! 3You knowG3609 howG3609 to analyzeG1381 the appearanceG4383 of the earthG1093 and the skyG3772, but 4whyG4459 do you not analyzeG1381 thisG3778 present timeG2540?

57“And 5whyG5101 do you not evenG2532 on your ownG1438 initiativeG575 judgeG2919 whatG1342 is rightG1342? 58For 6whileG5613 you are goingG5217 with your opponentG476 to appear beforeG1909 the magistrateG758, on your wayG3598 there makeG1325 an effortG2039 to 7settleG525 with him, soG3379 that he may not dragG2694 you beforeG4314 the judgeG2923, and the judgeG2923 turnG3860 you overG3860 to the officerG4233, and the officerG4233 throwG906 you into prisonG5438. 59I sayG3004 to you, you will not getG1831 out of thereG1564 untilG2193 you have paidG591 the veryG2532 lastG2078 89centG3016.”
