31 "When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels
with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. 32 All the
nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one
from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats,
33 and he will put the sheep at his right hand and the goats at the
left. 34 Then the king will say to those at his right hand, 'Come,
you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for
you from the foundation of the world; 35 for I was hungry and you
gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was
a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you gave me
clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you
visited me.' 37 Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when was
it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and
gave you something to drink? 38 And when was it that we saw you a
stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? 39 And
when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?'
40 And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did
it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did
it to me.' 41 Then he will say to those at his left hand, 'You that
are accursed, depart from me into the eternal fire prepared
for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry and you gave me
no food, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a
stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me
clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.' 44 Then they
also will answer, 'Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty
or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not take care of
you?' 45 Then he will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you
did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to
me.' 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the
righteous into eternal life."
