24 ^p“Strive ^qto enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 ^rWhen once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ^s‘Lord, open to us,’ then he will answer you, ^t‘I do not know where you come from.’ 26 Then you will begin to say, ^u‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’ 27 But he will say, ‘I tell you, ^tI do not know where you come from. ^vDepart from me, all you workers of evil!’ 28 ^wIn that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see ^wAbraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but ^wyou yourselves cast out.

24 For I tell you,^{1 m}none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.’”
