Matius 12:41

12:41 The people ¹  of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented when Jonah preached to them ²  – and now, ³  something greater than Jonah is here!

Matius 12:45

12:45 Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and live there, so ⁴  the last state of that person is worse than the first. It will be that way for this evil generation as well!”

[12:41]  ² tn Grk “at the preaching of Jonah.”

[12:41]  ³ tn Grk “behold.”

[12:45]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the concluding point of the story.
