37 For just as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be when the Son of Man comes.

38 In those days before the flood, peoplewere eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage right up to the day when Noah went into the ark.

39 They were unaware of what was happeninguntil the flood came and swept all of them away. That's how it will be when the Son of Man comes.

40 At that time two people will be in the field. One will be taken, and the other will be left behind.

41 Two women will be grinding grain at the mill. One will be taken, and the other will be left behind.
