Luke 12:54-56
New American Standard Bible
54 And He was also saying to the crowds, “(A)Whenever you see a cloud rising [a]in the west, you immediately say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it turns out. 55 And whenever you feel a [b]south wind blowing, you say, ‘It will be a (B)hot day,’ and it turns out that way. 56 You hypocrites! (C)You know how to analyze the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you do not know how to analyze this present time?

Interpreting the Time(A)
54 Then Jesus[a] told the crowds, “When you see a cloud coming in from the west, you immediately say, ‘There’s going to be a storm,’ and that’s what happens. 55 When you see a south wind blowing, you say, ‘It’s going to be hot,’ and so it is. 56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, yet you don’t know how to interpret the present time?”
