## Matthew 25:38 in Context (Verses 35–41 KJV)
 
 [35 ](/kjv/matthew/25/35) For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
 
 [36 ](/kjv/matthew/25/36) Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
 
 [37 ](/kjv/matthew/25/37) Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed *thee*? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
 
 [38 ](/kjv/matthew/25/38) When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed *thee*?
 
 [39 ](/kjv/matthew/25/39) Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
 
 [40 ](/kjv/matthew/25/40) And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done *it* unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done *it* unto me.
 
 [41 ](/kjv/matthew/25/41) Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
 
[Matthew 24](/kjv/matthew/24) [Matthew 26](/kjv/matthew/26)
