Matt. 25:31‑40• 31But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit down upon his throne of glory,
 32and all the nations shall be gathered before him; and he shall separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;
 33and he will set the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
 34Then shall the King say to those on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the world's foundation:
 35for I hungered, and ye gave me to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in;
 36naked, and ye clothed me; I was ill, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came to me.
 37Then shall the righteous answer him saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, and nourished thee; or thirsting, and gave thee to drink?
 38and when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in; or naked, and clothed thee?
 39and when saw we thee ill, or in prison, and came to thee?
