Matthew 25:44-46
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
44 Then they also [in their turn] will answer, 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 And He will reply to them, Solemnly I declare to you, in so far as you failed to do it for the least [[a]in the estimation of men] of these, you failed to do it for Me.(A)
46 Then they will go away into eternal punishment, but those who are just and upright and in right standing with God into eternal life.(B)
