Luke 17:23-24
Luke 17:22-25 The Message (MSG)
He went on to say to his disciples, “The days are coming when you are going to be desperately homesick for just a glimpse of one of the days of the Son of Man, and you won’t see a thing. And they’ll say to you, ‘Look over there!’ or, ‘Look here!’ Don’t fall for any of that nonsense. The arrival of the Son of Man is not something you go out to see. He simply comes. “You know how the whole sky lights up from a single flash of lightning? That’s how it will be on the Day of the Son of Man. But first it’s necessary that he suffer many things and be turned down by the people of today.
Luke 17:23-24 King James Version (KJV)
And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them. For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
Luke 17:23-24 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

Luke 17:23-24 New Century Version (NCV)
People will say to you, ‘Look, there he is!’ or, ‘Look, here he is!’ Stay where you are; don’t go away and search. “When the Son of Man comes again, he will shine like lightning, which flashes across the sky and lights it up from one side to the other.
Luke 17:23-24 American Standard Version (ASV)

Luke 17:23-24 New International Version (NIV)

The day of the Son of Man will burst forth with the brightness of a lightning strike that shines from one end of the sky to the other, illuminating the earth.
