Luke 13:23

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

And a certain man said to him: Lord, are they few that are saved? But he said to them:

See the chapter Copy

How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it!

For many are called, but few are chosen.

So shall the last be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen.

And when they had heard this, the disciples wondered very much, saying: Who then can be saved?

And he went through the cities and towns teaching, and making his journey to Jerusalem.

Strive to enter by the narrow gate; for many, I say to you, shall seek to enter, and shall not be able.
