## Matthew 25:42-43 in Context (Verses 39–46 KJV)
 
 [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:
 
 [42 ](/kjv/matthew/25/42) For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
 
 [43 ](/kjv/matthew/25/43) 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.
 
 [44 ](/kjv/matthew/25/44) 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?
 
 [45 ](/kjv/matthew/25/45) Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did *it* not to one of the least of these, ye did *it* not to me.
 
 [46 ](/kjv/matthew/25/46) And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
