Matthew 25:40-46

English Standard Version

⁴⁰ And ^(A)the King will answer them, ^(B)‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these ^(C)my brothers,^[a] you did it to me.’

⁴¹ “Then he will say to those on his left, ^(D)‘Depart from me, you ^(E)cursed, into ^(F)the eternal fire prepared for ^(G)the devil and his angels. ⁴² For ^(H)I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, ⁴³ I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ ⁴⁴ Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ ⁴⁵ Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, ^(I)you did not do it to me.’ ⁴⁶ And these will go away ^(J)into eternal punishment, but the righteous ^(K)into ^(L)eternal life.”
