若不悔改都要滅亡

13 就在那時候,有幾個在那裡的人,把加利利人的事告訴耶穌,就是彼拉多把他們的血和他們的祭物攙在一起的事。 他回答:“你們以為這些加利利人比其他的加利利人更有罪,才這樣受害嗎? 不是的,我告訴你們,你們若不悔改,都要這樣滅亡。 你們以為從前西羅亞樓倒塌的時候,壓死的那十八個人,比一切在耶路撒冷的居民更有罪嗎? 不是的,我告訴你們,你們若不悔改,也都要這樣滅亡。”

不結果的無花果樹

耶穌講了這樣一個比喻:“有一個人把一棵無花果樹栽在自己的葡萄園裡。他來到樹那裡找果子,卻找不到。 他對管園的說:‘你看,這三年,我來到這棵無花果樹那裡找果子,卻找不到,把它砍了吧!何必白佔地土呢?’ 管園的說:‘主人,今年且留著它,等我把周圍的泥土挖鬆,加上肥料; 以後結果子就罷,不然,再把它砍了。’”

在安息日治好病人

10 安息日的時候,耶穌在會堂裡教導人。 11 有一個女人被邪靈附著,病了十八年,彎腰曲背,完全直不起來。 12 耶穌看見了,就叫她過來,對她說:“婦人,你脫離這疾病了。” 13 耶穌用雙手按在她身上,她立刻直起腰來,頌讚 神。 14 會堂的主管,因為耶穌在安息日治病,就氣忿忿地對群眾說:“有六天是應當作工的,你們可以在這六天裡來求醫,但在安息日卻不可以。” 15 主說:“偽君子啊,你們哪一個人在安息日,不從槽那裡解開牛、驢,牽去喝水呢? 16 何況這個女人是亞伯拉罕的後裔,已經被撒但捆綁了十八年,不應當在安息日解開她的捆綁嗎?” 17 他說完了這些話,那些與他為敵的人都慚愧;群眾卻都因他所行一切榮耀的事歡喜。

芥菜種和麵酵的比喻(A)

18 耶穌說:“ 神的國好像甚麼呢?我要把它比作甚麼呢? 19 它好像一粒芥菜種,人拿去種在自己的園子裡。它長大了,成為一棵樹,甚至天空的飛鳥也在它的枝頭搭窩。” 20 他又說:“我要把 神的國比作甚麼呢? 21 它好像麵酵,女人拿去放在三斗麵裡,直到全團發起來。”

當進窄門(B)

22 耶穌經過各城各鄉,往耶路撒冷去,沿途教導人。 23 有一個人問他:“主啊,是不是只有很少的人得救呢?”他對眾人說: 24 “你們應當竭力進窄門!我告訴你們,將來許多人要進去,卻是不能。 25 等到家主起來關上門,你們站在門外叩門說:‘主啊,給我們開門!’他要回答你們:‘我不知道你們是從哪裡來的。’ 26 那時,你們要說:‘我們在你面前吃過喝過,你也在我們街上教導過人。’ 27 他要說:‘我告訴你們,我不曉得你們是從哪裡來的;你們所有作惡的人,離開我去吧!’ 28 當你們看見亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各和眾先知都在 神的國裡的時候,你們卻被趕到外面去,在那裡必要哀哭切齒。 29 從東從南,從西從北,將有人來,在 神的國裡吃飯。 30 在後的將要在前,在前的將要在後。”

為耶路撒冷歎息(C)

31 就在那時候,有幾個法利賽人來對耶穌說:“你離開這裡走吧!因為希律想要殺你。” 32 他說:“你們去告訴那個狐狸,今天明天我趕鬼醫病,第三天我的事就完成了。 33 然而,今天明天後天,我必須前行,因為先知不能在耶路撒冷以外喪命。 34 耶路撒冷啊,耶路撒冷,你殺害先知,又用石頭把奉派到你那裡的人打死。我多次想招聚你的兒女,好像母雞招聚小雞到翅膀底下,只是你們不願意。 35 你看,你們的家必成為荒場留給你們。我告訴你們,從今以後,你們一定見不到我,直等到你們說:‘奉主名來的,是應當稱頌的。’”

Repent or Perish

13 Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate(A) had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way?(B) I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam(C) fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? I tell you, no! But unless you repent,(D) you too will all perish.”

Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any.(E) So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down!(F) Why should it use up the soil?’

“‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.’”

Jesus Heals a Crippled Woman on the Sabbath

10 On a Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues,(G) 11 and a woman was there who had been crippled by a spirit for eighteen years.(H) She was bent over and could not straighten up at all. 12 When Jesus saw her, he called her forward and said to her, “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.” 13 Then he put his hands on her,(I) and immediately she straightened up and praised God.

14 Indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath,(J) the synagogue leader(K) said to the people, “There are six days for work.(L) So come and be healed on those days, not on the Sabbath.”

15 The Lord answered him, “You hypocrites! Doesn’t each of you on the Sabbath untie your ox or donkey from the stall and lead it out to give it water?(M) 16 Then should not this woman, a daughter of Abraham,(N) whom Satan(O) has kept bound for eighteen long years, be set free on the Sabbath day from what bound her?”

17 When he said this, all his opponents were humiliated,(P) but the people were delighted with all the wonderful things he was doing.

The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast(Q)(R)

18 Then Jesus asked, “What is the kingdom of God(S) like?(T) What shall I compare it to? 19 It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his garden. It grew and became a tree,(U) and the birds perched in its branches.”(V)

20 Again he asked, “What shall I compare the kingdom of God to? 21 It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds[a] of flour until it worked all through the dough.”(W)

The Narrow Door

22 Then Jesus went through the towns and villages, teaching as he made his way to Jerusalem.(X) 23 Someone asked him, “Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?”

He said to them, 24 “Make every effort to enter through the narrow door,(Y) because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. 25 Once the owner of the house gets up and closes the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, ‘Sir, open the door for us.’

“But he will answer, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from.’(Z)

26 “Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.’

27 “But he will reply, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!’(AA)

28 “There will be weeping there, and gnashing of teeth,(AB) when you see Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves thrown out. 29 People will come from east and west(AC) and north and south, and will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of God. 30 Indeed there are those who are last who will be first, and first who will be last.”(AD)

Jesus’ Sorrow for Jerusalem(AE)(AF)

31 At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus and said to him, “Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod(AG) wants to kill you.”

32 He replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘I will keep on driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.’(AH) 33 In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet(AI) can die outside Jerusalem!

34 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings,(AJ) and you were not willing. 35 Look, your house is left to you desolate.(AK) I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’[b](AL)

Repent or Perish

13 Now at that same time there were some present who were reporting to Him about the Galileans whose blood (A)Pilate had [a]mixed with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, (B)Do you think that these Galileans were greater sinners than all other Galileans because they suffered these things? I tell you, no, but unless you [b]repent, you will all likewise perish. Or do you think that those eighteen on whom the tower in (C)Siloam fell and killed them were worse [c](D)offenders than all the men who live in Jerusalem? I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”

The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree

And He was telling this parable: “A man had (E)a fig tree which had been planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit on it and did not find any. And he said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Behold, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree [d]without finding any. (F)Cut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?’ And he answered and said to him, ‘Let it alone, sir, for this year too, until I dig around it and put in manure, and if it bears fruit next year, fine, but if not, cut it down.’”

A Woman Healed on the Sabbath

10 And He was (G)teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. 11 And behold, there was a woman who for eighteen years had [e](H)a sickness caused by a spirit, and she was bent double, and could not straighten up at all. 12 But when Jesus saw her, He called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your sickness.” 13 And He (I)laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made erect again and began (J)glorifying God. 14 But (K)the synagogue official, indignant because Jesus (L)healed on the Sabbath, answered and was saying to the crowd, “(M)There are six days in which work should be done; so come during them and get healed, and not on the Sabbath day.” 15 But (N)the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites, (O)does not each of you on the Sabbath release his ox or his donkey from the stall and lead it away to water it? 16 And this woman, (P)being a daughter of Abraham, whom (Q)Satan has bound for—behold—eighteen years, should she not have been released from this bond on the Sabbath day?” 17 And as He said this, all His opponents were being put to shame; and (R)the entire crowd was rejoicing over all the glorious things being done by Him.

The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Leaven

18 Therefore, (S)He was saying, (T)What is the kingdom of God like, and to what shall I compare it? 19 It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and threw into his own garden, and it grew and became a tree, and (U)the birds of the [f]air nested in its branches.”

20 And again He said, (V)To what shall I compare the kingdom of God? 21 (W)It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in [g](X)three sata of flour until it was all leavened.”

The Narrow Door

22 And He was passing through from one city and village to another, teaching, and (Y)proceeding on His way to Jerusalem. 23 And someone said to Him, “Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?” And He said to them, 24 (Z)Strive to enter through the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 Once the head of the house gets up and (AA)shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘(AB)Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘(AC)I do not know where you are from.’ 26 Then you will (AD)begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ 27 And He will say, ‘I tell you, (AE)I do not know where you are from; (AF)depart from Me, all you workers of unrighteousness.’ 28 (AG)In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves being cast out. 29 And they (AH)will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God. 30 And behold, (AI)some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last.”

Lament over Jerusalem

31 Just at that time some Pharisees approached, saying to Him, “Leave and go from here, for (AJ)Herod wants to kill You.” 32 And He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and on the third day I [h](AK)finish.’ 33 Nevertheless (AL)I must journey on today and tomorrow and the next day, for it is not possible that a (AM)prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem. 34 (AN)O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, (AO)just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you did not want it! 35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate, and I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, ‘(AP)Blessed is He who comes in the name of the [i]Lord!’”

Repent or Perish

13 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had [a]mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”

The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree

He also spoke this parable: (A)“A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. Then he said to the keeper of his vineyard, ‘Look, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree and find none. Cut it down; why does it [b]use up the ground?’ But he answered and said to him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it. [c]And if it bears fruit, well. But if not, after that you can (B)cut it down.’ ”

A Spirit of Infirmity

10 Now He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. 11 And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way [d]raise herself up. 12 But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, “Woman, you are loosed from your (C)infirmity.” 13 (D)And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

14 But the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because Jesus had (E)healed on the Sabbath; and he said to the crowd, (F)“There are six days on which men ought to work; therefore come and be healed on them, and (G)not on the Sabbath day.”

15 The Lord then answered him and said, [e]“Hypocrite! (H)Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it? 16 So ought not this woman, (I)being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound—think of it—for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath?” 17 And when He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame; and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were (J)done by Him.

The Parable of the Mustard Seed(K)

18 (L)Then He said, “What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it? 19 It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and put in his garden; and it grew and became a [f]large tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”

The Parable of the Leaven(M)

20 And again He said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 It is like [g]leaven, which a woman took and hid in three (N)measures[h] of meal till it was all leavened.”

The Narrow Way(O)

22 (P)And He went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem. 23 Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there (Q)few who are saved?”

And He said to them, 24 (R)“Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for (S)many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 (T)When once the Master of the house has risen up and (U)shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, (V)‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, (W)‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ 26 then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ 27 (X)But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. (Y)Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’ 28 (Z)There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, (AA)when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out. 29 They will come from the east and the west, from the north and the south, and sit down in the kingdom of God. 30 (AB)And indeed there are last who will be first, and there are first who will be last.”

31 [i]On that very day some Pharisees came, saying to Him, “Get out and depart from here, for Herod wants to kill You.”

32 And He said to them, “Go, tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day (AC)I shall be [j]perfected.’ 33 Nevertheless I must journey today, tomorrow, and the day following; for it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.

Jesus Laments over Jerusalem(AD)

34 (AE)“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing! 35 See! (AF)Your house is left to you desolate; and [k]assuredly, I say to you, you shall not see Me until the time comes when you say, (AG)‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’
