And when wasit that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you cloth-ing? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?’ Andthe king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the leastof these who are members of my family, you did it to me.’ Then he will say tothose at his left hand, ‘You that are accursed, depart from me into the eternal fireprepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food,I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did notwelcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and youdid not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw youhungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not takecare of you?’ Then he will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did not do itto one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ And these will go away intoeternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
