Luke 5:35

But those days are coming, and when the bridegroom is taken from them, ¹  at that time ²  they will fast.”

But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; in those days they will fast."

"But the days will come; and when the bridegroom is taken away from them, then they will fast in those days."

Someday he will be taken away from them, and then they will fast."

When the groom is gone, the fasting can begin. No one throws cold water on a friendly bonfire. This is Kingdom Come!

But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.

The days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast in those days."

"But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days."

But those days are coming, and when the bridegroom is taken from them, ¹  at that time ²  they will fast.”

¹ sn The statement when the bridegroom is taken from them is a veiled allusion by Jesus to his death, which he did not make explicit until the incident at Caesarea Philippi in 9:18ff.

² tn Grk “then in those days.”
