25 After the homeowner gets up and closes the door, ⌊it’s too late⌋. You can stand outside, knock at the door, and say, ‘Sir, open the door for us!’ But he will answer you, ‘I don’t know who you are.’
26 Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.’
27 But he will tell you, ‘I don’t know who you are. Get away from me, all you evil people.’
28 Then you will cry and be in extreme pain. That’s what you’ll do when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets. They’ll be in the kingdom of God, but you’ll be thrown out.
29 People will come from all over the world and will eat in the kingdom of God.
30 Some who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.”
31 At that time some Pharisees told Jesus, “Get out of here, and go somewhere else! Herod wants to kill you.”
