Luke 13:24-35

24“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.

25Once the Master of the household gets up and shuts the door, and you’re standing outside and begin knocking on the door, saying, ‘Master, open up for us,’ then He will say to you, ‘I don’t know where you come from.’

26Then you will start to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your company, and You taught in our streets.’

27But He will say, ‘I tell you, I don’t know where you come from. Get away from Me, all of you evildoers!’”

28“There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves thrown out.

29And they will come from the east and west and from the north and south, and they will recline at table in the kingdom of God.

30And indeed, some are last who shall be first, and some are first who shall be last.”

31In that hour, some Pharisees came up and said to Yeshua, “Get out and leave from here, because Herod wants to kill You!”

32But Yeshua said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Indeed, I’m driving out demons and performing healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach My goal.’

33But I must keep going today and tomorrow because it just can’t be that a prophet would perish outside Jerusalem.

34“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem who kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing.

35Look, your house is left to you desolate! For I tell you, you will never see Me until you say, ‘Baruch ha-ba b’shem Adonai. Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’”
