²⁴ For I say unto you, that none of those men that were bidden shall taste of my supper.

⁴⁶ And Paul and Barnabas spake out boldly, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you. Seeing ye thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

⁴³ Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

²⁵ See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned `them' on earth, much more `shall not' we `escape' who turn away from him that `warneth' from heaven:

²⁶ whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.

²⁴ I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am `he', ye shall die in your sins.

²¹ He said therefore again unto them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: whither I go, ye cannot come.

³⁶ He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life; but he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.

¹⁹ And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.

³⁸ Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.

³⁹ For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed `is' he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

⁸ Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they that were bidden were not worthy.

²⁴ Because I have called, and ye have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man hath regarded;

²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, And would none of my reproof:

²⁶ I also will laugh in `the day of' your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

²⁷ When your fear cometh as a storm, And your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; When distress and anguish come upon you.

²⁸ Then will they call upon me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they shall not find me:

²⁹ For that they hated knowledge, And did not choose the fear of Jehovah:

³⁰ They would none of my counsel; They despised all my reproof.

³¹ Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, And be filled with their own devices.

³² For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them, And the careless ease of fools shall destroy them.
