24Do your best to go in by the narrow door, for I say to you, A number will make the attempt to go in, but will not be able to do so.
25When the master of the house has got up, and the door has been shut, and you, still outside, give blows on the door, saying, Lord, let us in; he will make answer and say, I have no knowledge of where you come from.
26Then you will say, We have taken food and drink with you, and you were teaching in our streets.
27But he will say, Truly, I have no knowledge of you or where you come from; go away from me, you workers of evil.
28There will be weeping and cries of sorrow when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are shut outside.
29And they will come from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south, and take their places in the kingdom of God.
30And the last will be first, and the first will be last.
