Luke 9:60-62

New International Reader's Version

⁶⁰ Jesus said to him, “Let dead people bury their own dead. You go and tell others about God’s kingdom.”

⁶¹ Still another person said, “I will follow you, Lord. But first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”

⁶² Jesus replied, “Suppose someone starts to plow and then looks back. That person is not fit for service in God’s kingdom.”
