Luke 13:18-30

18Then said he, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I compare it? 19It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and became a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in its branches. 20And again he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. 22And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

23Then said one to him, Lord, are there few that are saved? And he said to them, 24Strive to enter in at the narrow gate: for many, I say to you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. 25When once the master of the house hath risen up, and hath shut the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not where ye are from: 26Then ye shall begin to say, We ate and drank in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. 27But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not where ye are from; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. 28There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. 29And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. 30And, behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.
