¹ The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tried to test him by asking for a sign from heaven. ² He told them: If the sky is red in the evening, you say the weather will be good. ³ But if the sky is red and gloomy in the morning, you say it is going to rain. You can tell what the weather will be like by looking at the sky. But you don't understand what is happening now. ⁴ You want a sign because you are evil and won't believe! But the only sign you will be given is what happened to Jonah. Then Jesus left.
