Luke 9:54-62
-
54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?
-
55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
-
56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.
-
57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
-
58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
-
59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
-
60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
-
61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
-
62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
