23:31-46 When the Son of Man comes in his glory and all
the angels with him he will sit on a throne of glory. Assembled before him will be all the
nations. He will separate them from
one another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats and he will
set the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. Then the
king will say to those on his right.
“Come blessed ones of my Father.
Inherit the kingdom which has been prepared for you since the
foundation of the world. For I
hungered and you gave me to eat. I
thirsted and you gave me to drink. I
was a stranger and you entertained me.
I was naked and you clothed me.
I was sick and you visited me, in prison and you came to visit
me.” Then the righteous will answer
him saying “Lord when did we see you
hungry and feed you or see you thirsting and give you drink? When did we see you as a stranger and
welcome you or naked and clothed you? and when did we see you ailing or in
prison and
|
come
to you?”And answering the king will say to them. “Truly tell you inasmuch as you did this
to one of these the least of my brothers you did it to me. Then he will say
to those on the left. "Go from
me cursed ones into eternal fire which was prepared for the devil and his
angels. For I was hungry and you did
not give me to eat. I was thirsty
and you did not give me to drink. I
was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not cloth me,
ill and in prison and you did not visit me." Then they also will answer saying. Lord when did we see you hungry or
thirsting or a stranger or naked or ill or in prison and did not minister
to you?" Then he will answer
them saying “Truly I tell you,
inasmuch as you did not do these to one these least ones neither did you do
it to me. These will go away into
eternal punishment but the righteous
will go into life eternal”.
