Luke 12:54-56

New International Reader's Version

Understanding the Meaning of What Is Happening

⁵⁴ Jesus spoke to the crowd. He said, “You see a cloud rising in the west. Right away you say, ‘It’s going to rain.’ And it does. ⁵⁵ The south wind blows. So you say, ‘It’s going to be hot.’ And it is. ⁵⁶ You pretenders! You know how to understand the appearance of the earth and the sky. Why can’t you understand the meaning of what is happening right now?
