Luke 11:29-32
New American Standard Bible
The Sign of Jonah
29 Now as the crowds were increasing, He began to say, “(A)This generation is a wicked generation; it (B)demands a [a]sign, and so no [b]sign will be given to it except the [c]sign of Jonah. 30 For just as (C)Jonah became a [d]sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. 31 The (D)Queen of the South will rise up with the men of this generation at the judgment and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment and condemn it, because (E)they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

American Standard Version
29 And when the multitudes were gathering together unto him, he began to say, This generation is an evil generation: it seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it but the sign of Jonah. 30 For even as Jonah became a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation. 31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, [a]a greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, [b]a greater than Jonah is here.
