When You will come to earth in glory, O God, *
all things will tremble and the river of fire shall flow before Your judgment
seat; * and the books will be opened and all hidden things revealed. *
Deliver me, frm the unquenchable fire * and make me wrthy to stand at your
right hand, O righteous Judge. |

Matthew
25:31-46 - "When the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the
angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him
will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate them one from
another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and he will
place the sheep at his right hand, but the goats at the left. Then the
King will say to those at his right hand, `Come, O blessed of my Father,
inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;
for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me
drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed
me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.'
Then the righteous will answer him, `Lord, when did we see thee hungry
and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink? And when did we see thee
a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee? And when did we
see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?' And the King will answer
them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these
my brethren, you did it to me.' Then he will say to those at his left
hand, `Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for
the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I
was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not
welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you
did not visit me.' Then they also will answer, `Lord, when did we see
thee hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and
did not minister to thee?' Then he will answer them, `Truly, I say to
you, as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to
me.' And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous
into eternal life." (RSV) |
