Luke 17:25-37
17:25 But first he must
suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
17:26 Just
as it was
in the days of Noah,
so too it will be in the days of the Son of Man.
17:27 People
were eating,
they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage – right up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then
the flood came and destroyed them all.
17:28 Likewise, just as it was
in the days of Lot, people
were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building;
17:29 but on the day Lot went out from Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
17:30 It will be the same on the day the Son of Man is revealed.
17:31 On that day, anyone who is on the roof,
with his goods in the house, must not come down
to take them away, and likewise the person in the field must not turn back.
17:32 Remember Lot’s wife!
17:33 Whoever tries to keep
his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life
will preserve it.
17:34 I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.
17:35 There will be two women grinding grain together;
one will be taken and the other left.”

17:37 Then the disciples said to him, “Where, Lord?” He replied to them, “Where the dead body is, there the vultures will gather.”
