New Living Translation

Luke 12:55-59 New Living Translation (NLT)

55. When the south wind blows, you say, ‘Today will be a scorcher.’ And it is.

56. You fools! You know how to interpret the weather signs of the earth and sky, but you don’t know how to interpret the present times.

57. “Why can’t you decide for yourselves what is right?

58. When you are on the way to court with your accuser, try to settle the matter before you get there. Otherwise, your accuser may drag you before the judge, who will hand you over to an officer, who will throw you into prison.

59. And if that happens, you won’t be free again until you have paid the very last penny.”
