isv Matthew:12:38-45
isv@Matthew:12:38 @ Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to Jesus, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
isv@Matthew:12:39 @ But he replied to them,“An evil and adulterous generation craves a sign. Yet no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
isv@Matthew:12:40 @ For just as Jonah was in the stomach of the sea creature for three days and three nights,so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.
isv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah. But look—something greater than Jonah is here!
isv@Matthew:12:42 @ The queen of the south will stand up with this generation at the judgment and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. But look—something greater than Solomon is here!”
isv@Matthew:12:43 @ “Whenever an unclean spirit goes out of a person, it wanders through waterless places looking for a place to rest but finds none.
isv@Matthew:12:44 @ Then it says, ‘I will go back to my home that I left.’ When it arrives, it finds it empty, swept clean, and put in order.
isv@Matthew:12:45 @ Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and settle there. And so the final condition of that person becomes worse than the first. That's just what will happen to this evil generation!”
