31“But whenG3752 1the SonG5207 of ManG444 comesG2064 in His gloryG1391, and allG3956 the angelsG32 with Him, thenG5119 2He will sitG2523 on His gloriousG1391 throneG2362. 32And allG3956 the nationsG1484 will be 3gatheredG4863 beforeG1715 Him; and He will separateG873 them from oneG240 anotherG240, 4justG5618 as the shepherdG4166 separatesG873 the sheepG4263 from the goatsG2056; 33and He will putG2476 the sheepG4263 5on His rightG1188, but the goatsG2055 6on the leftG2176.

34“ThenG5119 the KingG935 will sayG3004 to thoseG3588 on His rightG1188, ‘ComeG1205, you who are blessedG2127 of My FatherG3962, 7inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 preparedG2090 for you 8from the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889. 35For 9I was hungryG3983, and you gaveG1325 Me something to eatG2068; I was thirstyG1372, and you gaveG4222 Me something toG4222 drinkG4222; 10I was a strangerG3581, and you invitedG4863 Me in; 3611nakedG1131, and you clothedG4016 Me; I was sickG770, and you 12visitedG1980 Me; 13I was in prisonG5438, and you cameG2064 to Me.’ 37ThenG5119 the righteousG1342 will answerG611 Him, ‘LordG2962, whenG4219 did we seeG3708 You hungryG3983, and feedG5142 You, orG2228 thirstyG1372, and giveG4222 You something toG4222 drinkG4222? 38And whenG4219 did we seeG3708 You as a strangerG3581, and inviteG4863 You in, orG2228 nakedG1131, and clotheG4016 You? 39And whenG4219 did we seeG3708 You sickG770, orG2228 in prisonG5438, and comeG2064 to You?’ 40And 14the KingG935 will answerG611 and sayG3004 to them, ‘TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 15to the extentG1909G3745 that you didG4160 it for oneG1520 of the leastG1646 of theseG3778 brothersG80 or sisters of MineG1473, you didG4160 it for Me.’

41“ThenG5119 He will alsoG2532 sayG3004 to thoseG3588 on His leftG2176, ‘16DepartG4198 from Me, you accursedG2672 peopleG2672, into the 17eternalG166 fireG4442 which has been preparedG2090 for 18the devilG1228 and his angelsG32;
