49 Eu vim para lançar fogo na terra; e o que mais posso querer, se já está aceso?

50 Porém há um batismo que tenho que ser batizado; e como me angustio até que se venha a cumprir!

51 Vós pensais que vim para dar paz à terra? Não, eu vos digo; mas antes [vim para trazer] divisão.

52 Porque daqui em diante cinco estarão divididos em uma casa; três contra dois, e dois contra três.

53 O pai estará dividido contra o filho, e o filho contra o pai; a mãe contra a filha, e a filha contra a mãe; a sogra contra sua nora, e a nora contra sua sogra.
