26And just as it was in the days of Noah, so also it will be in the days of the Son of Man—27they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage, until the day Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28Likewise, just as it was in the days of Lot—they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building. 29But on the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from heaven and destroyed them all. 30It will be just the sameh on the day that the Son of Man is revealed. 31On that day, whoever is on the housetop and his goods are in the house must not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field must not turn back. 32Remember Lot’s wife! 33Whoever seeks to preserve his life will lose it, but whoever loses it* will keep it. 34I tell you that in that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other will be left. 35There will be two women* grinding at the same place; one will be taken and the other will be left.”i

37And they answered and* said to him, “Where, Lord?” So he said to them, “Where the dead body is, there also the vultures will be gathered.”
