Matthew 25:31-46
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the
angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory.
32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will
separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the
goats.
33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his
left.
34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you
who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for
you since the creation of the world.
35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was
thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me
in,
36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you
looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we
see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?
38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or
needing clothes and clothe you?
39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit
you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you
did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’
41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me,
you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his
angels.
42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was
thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink,
43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed
clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not
look after me.’
44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry
or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not
help you?’
45 “He will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did
not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the
righteous to eternal life.”
John 5:27-29
27 And he has given him authority to judge because he is the
Son of Man.
28 “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all
who are in their graves will hear his voice
29 and come out—those who have done good will rise to live,
and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.
