Matthew 12:38 in Context — Matthew 12

36 Eu, porém, vos digo que de toda palavra imprudente que as pessoas falarem, dela prestarão contas no dia do juízo.

37 Porque por tuas palavras serás justificado, e por tuas palavras serás condenado.

38 Então responderam uns dos escribas e dos fariseus, dizendo: Mestre, queremos ver de ti algum sinal.

39 Mas ele lhes deu a seguinte resposta: Uma geração má e adúltera pede sinal; mas não lhe será dado, exceto o sinal do profeta Jonas.

40 Porque assim como Jonas esteve três dias e três noites no ventre da baleia, assim também o Filho do homem estará três dias e três noites no coração da terra.
