Luke Chapter 13, Verse 5
From BibleWiki
5: ουχι λεγω υμιν αλλ εαν μη μετανοητε παντες ομοιως απολεισθε
5: I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise
perish.
5: No, I say to you: but except you do penance, you shall all
likewise perish.
I tell you, Nay. It is improper to suppose that those on whom heavy
judgments fall in this world are the worst of men. This is not a world
of retribution. Often the most wicked are suffered to prosper here, and
their punishment is reserved for another world; while the righteous are
called to suffer much, and appear to be under the sore displeasure
of God, Ps 731, and following. This only we know, that the wicked
will not always escape; that God is just; and that none who do suffer
here or hereafter, suffer more than they deserve. In the future world,
all that seems to be un equal here will be made equal and plain.
