There were present
at
that season
some
that told
him
of
the Galilaeans
, whose
blood
Pilate
had mingled
with
their
sacrifices
.
And Jesus
answering
said
unto them
, Suppose ye
that
these
Galilaeans
were
sinners
above
all
the Galilaeans
, because
they suffered
such things
?
I tell you
, Nay
: but
, except
ye repent
, ye shall
all
likewise
perish
.
Or those
eighteen
, upon
whom
the tower
in
Siloam
fell
, and
slew
them
, think ye
that
they
were
sinners
above
all
men
that dwelt
in
Jerusalem
?
I tell you
, Nay
: but
, except
ye repent
, ye shall
all
likewise
perish
.
He spake also
this
parable
; A certain
man had
a fig tree
planted
in
his
vineyard
; and
he came
and sought
fruit
thereon
, and
found
none
.
Then said he
unto
the dresser of his vineyard
, Behold
, these three
years
I come
seeking
fruit
on
this
fig tree
, and
find
none
: cut
it
down
; why
cumbereth
it
the ground
?
And he answering
said
unto him
, Lord
, let
it
alone
this
year
also
, till
I shall dig
about
it
, and
dung
it :
And if it bear
fruit
, well : and if not
, then after that
thou shalt cut
it
down
.
And he was
teaching
in
one
of the synagogues
on
the sabbath
.
And, behold
, there was
a woman
which had
a spirit
of infirmity
eighteen
years
, and
was
bowed together
, and
could
in
no
wise
lift up
herself .
And when Jesus
saw
her
, he called
her to him , and
said
unto her
, Woman
, thou art loosed
from thine
infirmity
.
And he laid
his hands
on
her
: and
immediately
she was made straight
, and
glorified
God
.
And the ruler of the synagogue
answered
with indignation
, because
that Jesus
had healed
on the sabbath
day, and said
unto the people
, There are
six
days
in
which
men ought
to work
: in
them
therefore
come
and be healed
, and
not
on the sabbath
day
.
The Lord then
answered
him
, and
said
, Thou hypocrite
, doth
not
each one
of you
on the sabbath
loose
his
ox
or
his ass
from
the stall
, and
lead him away
to watering
?
And ought
not
this woman
, being
a daughter
of Abraham
, whom
Satan
hath bound
, lo
, these eighteen
years
, be loosed
from
this
bond
on the sabbath
day
?
And when he
had said
these things
, all
his
adversaries
were ashamed
: and
all
the people
rejoiced
for
all
the glorious things
that were done
by
him
.
Then said he
, Unto what
is
the kingdom
of God
like
? and
whereunto
shall I resemble
it
?
It is like
a grain
of mustard seed
, which
a man
took
, and cast
into
his
garden
; and
it grew
, and
waxed
a great
tree
; and
the fowls
of the air
lodged
in
the branches
of it
.
And again
he said
, Whereunto
shall I liken
the kingdom
of God
?
It is like
leaven
, which
a woman
took
and hid
in
three
measures
of meal
, till
the whole
was leavened
.
And he went
through
the cities
and
villages
, teaching
, and
journeying
toward
Jerusalem
.
Then said
one
unto
him
, Lord
, are there few
that be saved
? And
he said
unto them
,
Strive to enter in
at
the strait
gate
: for
many
, I say
unto you
, will seek
to enter in
, and
shall
not
be able
.
When once the master of the house
is risen up
, and
hath shut
to the door
, and
ye begin
to stand
without
, and
to knock
at the door
, saying
, Lord
, Lord
, open
unto us
; and
he shall answer
and say
unto you
, I know
you
not
whence
ye are
:
Then shall ye begin
to say
, We have eaten
and
drunk
in thy
presence
, and
thou hast taught
in
our
streets
.
But he shall say
, I tell
you
, I know
you
not
whence
ye are
; depart
from
me
, all
ye workers
of iniquity
.
There shall be
weeping
and
gnashing
of teeth
, when
ye shall see
Abraham
, and
Isaac
, and
Jacob
, and
all
the prophets
, in
the kingdom
of God
, and
you
yourselves thrust
out
.
And they shall come
from
the east
, and
from the west
, and
from
the north
, and
from the south
, and
shall sit down
in
the kingdom
of God
.
And, behold
, there are
last
which
shall be
first
, and
there are
first
which
shall be
last
.
The same day
there came
certain
of the Pharisees
, saying
unto him
, Get thee out
, and
depart
hence
: for
Herod
will
kill
thee
.
And he said
unto them
, Go ye
, and tell
that
fox
, Behold
, I cast out
devils
, and
I do
cures
to day
and
to morrow
, and
the third
day I shall be perfected
.
Nevertheless I
must
walk
to day
, and
to morrow
, and
the day following
: for
it cannot be
that a prophet
perish
out of
Jerusalem
.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem
, which
killest
the prophets
, and
stonest
them that are sent
unto
thee
; how often
would
I have gathered
thy
children
together
, as
a hen
doth gather her
brood
under
her wings
, and
ye would
not
!
Behold, your
house
is left
unto you
desolate
: and
verily
I say
unto you
,
Ye shall
not
see
me
, until
the time come
when
ye shall say
, Blessed
is he that cometh
in
the name
of the Lord
.
