26 “Just as it was in the days of Noah,(A) so it will be in the days of the Son of Man: 27 People went on eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage(B) until the day Noah boarded the ark,(C) and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 It will be the same as it was in the days of Lot:(D) People went on eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building. 29 But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained from heaven and destroyed(E) them all. 30 It(F) will be like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.(G) 31 On that day, a man on the housetop, whose belongings are in the house, must not come down to get them. Likewise the man who is in the field must not turn back. 32 Remember Lot’s wife!(H) 33 Whoever tries to make his life secure[a][b] will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it.(I)
