Bible verse
It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.
Luke 17:28 · BSB
The verses around it, from Luke 17.
24 For just as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other, so will be the Son of Man in His day.
25 But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
26 Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man:
27 People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.
29 But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
30 It will be just like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.
31 On that day, let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve his possessions. Likewise, let no one in the field return for anything he has left behind.
32 Remember Lot’s wife!
