Luke 17:22-37

New Matthew Bible

²² And he said to the disciples, The days will come when you will desire to see one day of the Son of man, and you will not see it. ²³ And they will say to you, See here, see there! Do not go after them or follow them. ²⁴ For as the lightning that appears out of the one part of the heaven and shines to the other part of heaven, so shall the Son of man be in his days. ²⁵ But first he must suffer many things, and be refused by this nation.

²⁶ As it happened in the time of Noah, so shall it be in the time of the Son of man: ²⁷ they ate, they drank, they married wives, and were married, right up to the same day that Noah went into the ark; and the flood came and destroyed them all. ²⁸ Likewise also as it happened in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built. ²⁹ And even the same day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. ³⁰ After these examples shall it be in the day when the Son of man appears.

³¹ At that day, let him who is on the housetop, with his stuff in the house, not come down to take it out. And likewise, let not him who is in the fields turn back again to what he left behind. ³² Remember Lot’s wife. ³³ Whosoever would go about to save his life, shall lose it, and whosoever will lose his life, shall save it. ³⁴ I tell you, in that night there will be two in one bed; the one will be received, and the other will be left. ³⁵ Two will also be a-grinding together; the one will be received, and the other left.

³⁷ And they answered and said to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Wherever the body is, there will the eagles resort.
