In context
36 Nawaambia kuwa katika siku ya hukumu watu watatoa hesabu ya kila neno lisilo na maana walilosema.
37 Kwa kuwa kwa maneno yako utahesabiwa haki na kwa maneno yako utahukumiwa.”
38 Kisha baadhi ya waandishi na Mafarisayo walimjibu Yesu wakisema” Mwalimu, tungependa kuona ishara kutoka kwako.”
39 Lakini Yesu alijibu na kuwaambia, “Kizazi kiovu na cha zinaa kinatafuta ishara. Lakini hakuna ishara itakayotolewa kwao isipokuwa ile ishara ya Yona nabii.
40 Kama vile nabii Yona alivyokuwa ndani ya tumbo la samaki mkubwa kwa siku tatu mchana na usiku, hivyo ndivyo Mwana wa Adam atakavyo kuwa ndani ya moyo wa nchi kwa siku tatu mchana na usiku.
41 Watu wa Ninawi watasimama mbele ya hukumu pamoja na kizazi cha watu hawa na watakihukumu. Kwa kuwa walitubu kwa mahubiri ya Yona, na tazama, mtu fulani mkuu kuliko Yona yuko hapa.
42 Malkia wa kusini atainuka kwenye hukumu pamoja na watu wa kizazi hiki na kukihukumu. Alikuja toka miisho ya dunia kuja kusikia hekima ya Selemani, na tazama, mtu fulani mkuu kuliko Selemani yupo hapa.
