28 [a]It was the same as happened in (A)the days of Lot: they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, and they were building; 29 but on the day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and [b]brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 It will be [c]just the same on the day that the Son of Man (B)is revealed. 31 On that day, the one who will be (C)on the [d]housetop, [e]with his goods in the house, must not go down to take them out; and likewise the one in the field must not turn back. 32 (D)Remember Lot’s wife. 33 (E)Whoever strives to [f]save his [g]life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will keep it. 34 I tell you, on that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 (F)There will be two women grinding at the same place; one will be taken and the other will be left. 36 [[h](G)Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other will be left.”] 37 And responding, they *said to Him, “Where, Lord?” And He said to them, (H)Where the body is, there also the [i]vultures will be gathered.”
