49I am come to cast fire on the earth. And what will I, but that it be kindled?

50And I have a baptism wherewith I am to be baptized. And how am I straitened until it be accomplished?

51Think ye, that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, no; but separation.

52For there shall be from henceforth five in one house divided: three against two, and two against three.

53The father shall be divided against the son and the son against his father: the mother against the daughter and the daughter against her mother: the mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

54And he said also to the multitudes: When you see a cloud rising from the west, presently you say: A shower is coming. And so it happeneth.

55And when ye see the south wind blow, you say: There will be heat. And it cometh to pass.

56You hypocrites, you know how to discern the face of the heaven and of the earth: but how is it that you do not discern this time?

57And why, even of yourselves, do you not judge that which is just?
