Matius 19:30

19:30 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

Matius 20:16

20:16 So the last will be first, and the first last.”

Lukas 13:30

13:30 But ¹  indeed, ²  some are last ³  who will be first, and some are first who will be last.”

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

² tn Grk “behold.”

³ sn Some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last. Jesus’ answer is that some who are expected to be there (many from Israel) will not be there, while others not expected to be present (from other nations) will be present. The question is not, “Will the saved be few?” (see v. 23), but “Will it be you?”
