³⁹ But He answered and said to them, “^(A)An evil and adulterous generation craves a ^[a]sign; and so no ^[b]sign will be given to it except the ^[c]sign of Jonah the prophet;

^4 (A)An evil and adulterous generation wants a ^[a]sign; and so a ^[b]sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah.” And He left them and went away.

³⁸ For ^(A)whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, ^(B)the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He ^(C)comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”
