59 Jesus said to another, |Follow me.| But he replied, |Lord, first let me go and bury my father.| 60 But Jesus said to him, |Let the dead bury their own dead, but as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.| 61 Yet another said, |I will follow you, Lord, but first let me say goodbye to my family.| 62 Jesus said to him, |No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.| Luke 9:59-62, New English Translation.
