²⁵ Imagine you want to enter someone’s home, but you wait until after the homeowner has shut the door. Then you stand outside and bang on the door, and you say, “Sir, please open the door for us!” But he will answer, “I don’t know where you’re from.”

²⁶ Then you’ll say, “Just a minute. We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.” ²⁷ But he’ll say, “Sorry, I have no idea where you’re from. Leave me, all of you evildoers.”
