My kingdom is not of this world

In Russian, the phrase Царство Мое не от мира сего (Tsarstvo Moye ne ot mira sego) or “My kingdom is not of this world” is widely used as an idiom to refer to people who are unpractical or who live in a fantasy world. The wording of the quote originated in the Russian Synodal Bible (publ. 1876). (Source: Reznikov 2020, p. 79)
