Luke 12:48-50

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁴⁸ But he who did not know and did things worthy of a beating shall be beaten with few [lashes]. For everyone to whom much is given, of him shall much be required; and of him to whom men entrust much, they will require and demand all the more.^(A)

⁴⁹ I have come to cast fire upon the earth, and how I wish that it were already kindled!

⁵⁰ I have a baptism with which to be baptized, and how greatly and sorely I am urged on (impelled, ^[a]constrained) until it is accomplished!
