← Matthew 25:42 [words of Jesus]	Matthew 25:43 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Matthew 25:44 [words of Jesus] →
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:	I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.	Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
