⁵⁵ In this region, when the wind blows from the south, you say, ‘It is going to be a very hot day!’ and that is what happens.

⁵⁶ You hypocrites! By observing the clouds and the wind, you are able to discern what is happening regarding the weather. It is disgusting that you are not able to discern what God is doing at this present time RHQ!

⁵⁵ And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, There will be heat; and so it is.

⁵⁶ O false ones! the face of the earth and the heaven is clear to you; how is it that the signs of these times are not as clear to you?

⁵⁴ And he said also to the crowds, When ye see a cloud rising out of the west, straightway ye say, A shower is coming; and so it happens.

⁵⁵ And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it happens.

⁵⁴ Then He also said to the crowds: “Whenever you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A rainstorm is coming,’ and so it does.

⁵⁵ And whenever a south wind blows, you say, ‘It will be hot,’ and it happens.

⁵⁶ Hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky and of the earth, so how can you not discern this time?

⁵⁴ Then Jesus spoke to the crowds. “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you immediately say, ‘a rain-shower's coming,’ and it happens.

⁵⁵ When a south wind blows, you say ‘it's going to be hot,’ and it is.

⁵⁶ You hypocrites, how is it that you know how to rightly interpret the weather but you don't know how to interpret the present time?

⁵⁴ Then said he to the people, When ye see a cloude rise out of the West, straightway ye say, A shower commeth: and so it is.

⁵⁵ And when ye see the South winde blowe, ye say, that it wilbe hoate: and it commeth to passe.

⁵⁴ And to the people Jesus said, “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once ‘There is a storm coming,’ and come it does.

⁵⁵ And when you see that the wind is in the south, you say ‘It will be burning hot,’ and so it proves.

⁵⁶ Hypocrites! You know how to judge of the earth and the sky; how is it, then, that you cannot judge of this time?

⁵⁴ And to the people Jesus said, “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once ‘There is a storm coming,’ and come it does.

⁵⁵ And sometimes the south wind blows, and you say, ‘Today will be really hot.’ And again, you are right.

⁵⁶ But you are fools. You look at the earth and the sky, and you know how to work out what the weather is doing, but whenever you look at the things that are happening right now, you don’t know how to work out what God is doing.”
