11  Viel werden kommen von Morgen und von Abend
und mit Abraham und Isaac und Jakob im Himmelreich sitzen,
12  aber die Kinder des Reichs werden ausgestoßen in das Finsternis hinaus,
da wird sein Heulen und Zähnklappern.

11  Many shall come from the east and west,
and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
12  But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness:
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
