Luke 17:22-30

English Standard Version

²² And he said to the disciples, ^(A)“The days are coming when you will desire ^(B)to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. ^23 (C)And they will say to you, ‘Look, there!’ or ‘Look, here!’ Do not go out or follow them. ^24 (D)For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be ^(E)in his day.^{[a] 25} But first ^(F)he must suffer many things and ^(G)be rejected by this generation. ^26 (H)Just as it was in the days of ^(I)Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man. ^27 (J)They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. ²⁸ Likewise, just as it was in the days of ^(K)Lot—they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building, ^29 (L)but on the day when Lot went out from Sodom, fire and sulfur rained from heaven and destroyed them all— ³⁰ so will it be ^(M)on the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
