35 The good person from his good treasury brings out good things, and the evil person from his evil treasury brings out evil things.

37 For by your words you will be vindicated, and by your words you will be condemned.”

40 For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish three days and three nights, so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
