Luke 11:29


← Luke 11:28 [words of Jesus] Luke 11:29 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Luke 11:30 [words of Jesus] →
But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.
