Repent or Perish
13 There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood (A)Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And he answered them, (B)“Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? 3 No, I tell you; but unless you (C)repent, you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen on whom the tower in (D)Siloam fell and killed them: do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who lived in Jerusalem? 5 No, I tell you; but unless you (E)repent, you will all likewise perish.”
The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree
6 And he told this parable: “A man had (F)a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. 7 And he said to the vinedresser, ‘Look, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. (G)Cut it down. Why should it use up the ground?’ 8 And he answered him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. 9 Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.’”
A Woman with a Disabling Spirit
10 Now (H)he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. 11 And behold, there was a woman who had had (I)a disabling spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and could not fully straighten herself. 12 When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your disability.” 13 And he (J)laid his hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and she (K)glorified God. 14 But (L)the ruler of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus (M)had healed on the Sabbath, said to the people, (N)“There are six days in which work ought to be done. Come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.” 15 Then the Lord answered him, “You hypocrites! (O)Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger and lead it away to water it? 16 And ought not this woman, (P)a daughter of Abraham whom (Q)Satan bound for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?” 17 As he said these things, (R)all his adversaries were put to shame, and (S)all the people rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by him.
The Mustard Seed and the Leaven
18 (T)He said therefore, “What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it? 19 It is like (U)a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his garden, and it grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air made nests in its branches.”
20 And again he said, “To what shall I compare the kingdom of God? 21 (V)It is like leaven that a woman took and hid in (W)three measures of flour, until it was (X)all leavened.”
The Narrow Door
22 (Y)He went on his way through towns and villages, teaching and (Z)journeying toward Jerusalem. 23 And someone said to him, “Lord, (AA)will those who are saved be few?” And he said to them, 24 (AB)“Strive (AC)to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 (AD)When once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, (AE)‘Lord, open to us,’ then he will answer you, (AF)‘I do not know where you come from.’ 26 Then you will begin to say, (AG)‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’ 27 But he will say, ‘I tell you, (AH)I do not know where you come from. (AI)Depart from me, all you workers of evil!’ 28 (AJ)In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see (AK)Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but (AL)you yourselves cast out. 29 And (AM)people will come from east and west, and from north and south, and (AN)recline at table in the kingdom of God. 30 And behold, (AO)some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.”
Lament over Jerusalem
31 At that very hour some Pharisees came and said to him, “Get away from (AP)here, for (AQ)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 the third day (AR)I finish my course. 33 Nevertheless, (AS)I (AT)must go on my way today and tomorrow and the day following, for it cannot be that (AU)a prophet should perish away from Jerusalem.’ 34 (AV)O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that (AW)kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! (AX)How often would I have (AY)gathered (AZ)your children together (BA)as a hen gathers her brood (BB)under her wings, and (BC)you were not willing! 35 Behold, (BD)your house is forsaken. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, (BE)‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!’”

Worldwide English (New Testament)
13 Some people were there at that time who told Jesus what Pilate had done. He had killed some of the people of Galilee and put their blood with the blood of their sacrifices to God.
2 Jesus answered, `Do you think it was because they were worse than all the other people in Galilee?
3 I tell you, "No!" But if you do not stop doing wrong things, then you will all die as they did.
4 Eighteen men died when the high house in Siloam fell on them. Do you think they were worse than all the other men who lived in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, "No!" But if you do not stop doing wrong things, you will all die as they did.'
6 Then Jesus told this story: `A man had a fruit tree on his farm. He came to look for fruit on it, but did not find any.
7 He said to the man who cared for the trees, "For three years I have come to look for fruit on this tree, but I have not found any. Cut it down. Why should it spoil my farmland?"
8 The man who cared for the trees answered, "Sir, let it stay one more year. I will dig around it and put good soil around it.
9 If it has fruit on it next year, that will be good. But if it has no fruit, you can have it cut down." '
10 Jesus was teaching in one of the meeting houses on the Sabbath day.
11 A woman was there who had a spirit that had made her sick for eighteen years. She had to bend down all the time and could not stand up straight.
12 Jesus saw her and called her to come to him. Then he said, `Woman, you are healed. You are not sick any longer.'
13 Jesus put his hands on her, and right away she stood up straight. And she praised God.
14 The ruler of the meeting house was angry because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath day. He said to the people, `There are six days to work. You should come to be healed on those days, and not on the Sabbath day.'
15 The Lord said to him, `You are not true to yourselves! Every one of you unties his cow or horse and takes it to the water to drink on the Sabbath day. Do you not?
16 This woman belongs to Abraham's family. Satan has tied her for eighteen years. Is it not right that she should be set free on the Sabbath day?'
17 When he said that, all those who had talked against him were ashamed. All the other people were very glad for all the wonderful things Jesus did.
18 He went on to say, `What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I say it is like?
19 It is like this. A man took a mustard seed and planted it in his field. It grew up big like a tree. The birds came and lived in its branches.'
20 Then Jesus said again, `What else is the kingdom of God like?
21 It is like this. A woman took yeast and mixed it with many cups of flour. The yeast went all through the flour.'
22 Jesus went through the towns and villages on the way to Jerusalem. He was teaching the people as he went.
23 A man asked him, `Sir, will only a few people be saved?'
24 Jesus answered, `Try hard to go in by the small gate. I tell you, many will want to go in but they will not be able.
25 The master of the house will get up and lock the door. Then you will be standing outside. You will begin to knock on the door and call, "Sir, open the door for us!" But he will answer, "I do not know where you belong."
26 Then you will say, "We ate and drank with you. You taught in our streets."
27 But he will say, "I tell you, I do not know where you belong. Go away from me all you who do wrong! "
28 `You will see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God. And you will see yourselves thrown out. Then you will cry and make a noise with your teeth.
29 People will come from the east, from the west, from the north, and from the south. They will sit down to eat in the kingdom of God.
30 Yes, some people who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.'
31 At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus. They said to him, `Go away from here. Herod wants to kill you.'
32 He said, `Go and tell that fox, "I drive bad spirits out of people and heal people. I do it today and tomorrow. On the third day I will finish what I am doing."
33 But I must go on my way today, tomorrow, and the next day. A prophet of God cannot be killed outside of Jerusalem.
34 `O Jerusalem, Jerusalem! You kill the prophets of God. You throw stones to kill men who are sent to you. How often I have wanted to gather your people together as a mother hen gathers her little ones under her wings. But you would not come!
35 Now you are left alone in your house. I tell you this. You will not see me again until the time when you say, "God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord." '

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. 2 Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way?(B) 3 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. 4 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? 5 I tell you, no! But unless you repent,(D) you too will all perish.”
6 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) 7 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?’
8 “‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. 9 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)

Magsisi o Mamatay
13 Nang oras na iyon, dumating ang ilan at nagbalita kay Jesus na may mga taga-Galilea na ipinapatay ni Pilato habang nag-aalay sila sa Diyos. 2 At sinabi niya sa kanila, “Inaakala ba ninyong higit na makasalanan ang mga taga-Galileang iyon kaysa ibang mga taga-Galilea dahil nagdusa sila nang ganoon? 3 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, hindi! Ngunit kung hindi kayo magsisisi, lahat kayo'y mapapahamak ding tulad nila. 4 Iyon namang labingwalong namatay nang nabagsakan ng tore sa Siloam, inaakala ba ninyong higit silang makasalanan kaysa ibang taga-Jerusalem? 5 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, hindi! Ngunit kung hindi kayo magsisisi, lahat kayo'y mapapahamak ding tulad nila.”
Talinghaga ng Punong Igos na Walang Bunga
6 Isinalaysay niya ang talinghagang ito: “Isang tao ang may puno ng igos na nakatanim sa kanyang ubasan. Pinuntahan niya ito upang maghanap ng bunga roon, ngunit wala siyang natagpuan. 7 Kaya sinabi niya sa tagapag-alaga ng ubasan, ‘Tingnan mo ito; tatlong taon na akong pumupunta rito upang maghanap ng bunga sa punong igos na ito ngunit wala pa akong matagpuan. Kaya putulin mo na ito! Sayang lang ang lupa sa kanya!’ 8 Sumagot ito sa kanya, ‘Panginoon, bigyan pa po ninyo ito ng isang taon at huhukayin ko ang paligid nito at lalagyan ko ng pataba. 9 Baka naman magbunga na ito sa darating na taon, ngunit kung hindi pa, puputulin na ninyo ito.’ ”
Ang Pagpapagaling sa Babaing Kuba
10 Isang araw ng Sabbath, nagtuturo si Jesus sa isang sinagoga. 11 Naroon ang isang babaing labingwalong taon nang may espiritu ng kapansanan. Hukot ang kanyang katawan at hindi na niya makayang makaunat. 12 Nang makita ni Jesus ang babae, tinawag niya ito at sinabi sa kanya, “Babae, kinalagan ka na sa iyong kapansanan.” 13 At ipinatong niya ang kanyang kamay sa babae at nakaunat ito at nagpuri sa Diyos. 14 Ngunit ikinagalit ng pinuno ng sinagoga ang pagpapagaling ni Jesus nang Sabbath kaya't sinabi niyon sa mga tao, “May anim na araw na dapat magtrabaho, kaya nga sa mga araw na iyon kayo magpunta upang magpagaling at hindi sa araw ng Sabbath.” 15 Sinabi sa kanya ng Panginoon, “Mga mapagkunwari! Hindi ba't kung Sabbath ay kinakalagan ng bawat isa sa inyo ang inyong baka o asno mula sa sabsaban at inilalabas ito upang painumin? 16 Iginapos ni Satanas nang labingwalong taon ang babaing ito na anak ni Abraham. Hindi ba dapat lang na makalagan siya sa pagkakagapos na iyon sa araw ng Sabbath?” 17 Pagkasabi niya noon, napahiya ang lahat ng kumakalaban sa kanya. Nagalak ang buong madla sa lahat ng kahanga-hangang ginawa niya.
Talinghaga ng Butil ng Mustasa at ng Pampaalsa(A)
18 Sinabi niya, “Saan maihahalintulad ang paghahari ng Diyos at sa ano ko ito maihahambing? 19 Tulad ito ng isang butil ng mustasa na pagkakuha ng isang tao ay inihasik sa kanyang halamanan. Tumubo ito at naging puno at namugad sa mga sanga nito ang mga ibon sa langit.”
20 At muli ay sinabi niya, “Sa ano ko maihahalintulad ang paghahari ng Diyos? 21 Tulad ito ng pampaalsa na kinuha ng isang babae at inihalo sa tatlong takal ng harina hanggang sa mapaalsa nito ang buong masa.”
Ang Makipot na Pintuan(B)
22 Nagturo si Jesus sa mga bayan at nayon habang naglalakbay patungong Jerusalem. 23 Minsan ay may nagtanong sa kanya, “Panginoon, kakaunti ba ang maliligtas?” Kaya't sinabi niya sa kanila, 24 “Pagsikapan ninyong pumasok sa makipot na pintuan sapagkat, sinasabi ko sa inyo, marami ang magsisikap pumasok doon ngunit hindi makapapasok. 25 Sa sandaling tumayo na ang panginoon ng bahay at naisara na ang pinto, magsisimula na kayong tumayo sa labas at tumuktok sa pintuan at sasabihin ninyo, ‘Panginoon, pagbuksan po ninyo kami!’ Sasabihin niya sa inyo bilang sagot, ‘Hindi ko alam kung tagasaan kayo!’ 26 Kaya't sasabihin ninyo, ‘Kumain po kami at uminom na kasama ninyo at nagturo kayo sa aming mga lansangan.’ 27 Subalit sasabihin niya, ‘Hindi ko alam kung tagasaan kayo! Layuan ninyo ako, kayong lahat na gumagawa ng kasamaan!’ 28 Magkakaroon ng pagtangis at pagngangalit ng ngipin kapag nakita ninyo sa kaharian ng Diyos sina Abraham, Isaac, at Jacob at lahat ng mga propeta, habang kayo'y ipinagtatabuyan palabas. 29 May mga taong manggagaling sa silangan at kanluran, sa hilaga at sa timog, at kakain sa handaan sa kaharian ng Diyos. 30 Makinig kayo: May mga huling mauuna at may mga unang mahuhuli.”
Ang Pagtangis ni Jesus sa Jerusalem(C)
31 Nang mga oras na iyon ay dumating ang ilang Fariseo na nagsabi kay Jesus, “Umalis ka na at pumunta sa ibang lugar sapagkat gusto kang ipapatay ni Herodes.” 32 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Humayo kayo at sabihin ninyo sa asong-gubat na iyon, na tingnan mo, nagpapalayas ako ng mga demonyo at nagpapagaling ngayon at bukas. Sa ikatlong araw ay matatapos ko na ang aking gawain. 33 Gayunman, kailangan kong magpatuloy sa aking paglalakbay ngayon at bukas at sa makalawa. Sapagkat hindi maaaring ang isang propeta ay mamatay sa labas ng Jerusalem. 34 Jerusalem, Jerusalem! Ikaw na pumapatay sa mga propeta at bumabato sa mga isinugo sa iyo! Ilang ulit kong ninais kupkupin ang iyong mga anak tulad ng pagkupkop ng inahin sa kanyang mga sisiw sa ilalim ng kanyang pakpak, ngunit ayaw mo. 35 Tandaan ninyo: Pababayaan ng Diyos ang inyong bahay. At sinasabi ko sa inyong hinding-hindi ninyo ako makikita hanggang sa sumapit ang panahong sabihin ninyo, ‘Pinagpala ang dumarating sa ngalan ng Panginoon.’ ”

13 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 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?
5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
6 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.
7 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?
8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
9 And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.
10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.
11 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.
12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
14 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.
15 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?
16 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?
17 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.
18 Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?
19 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.
20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
22 And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.
23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,
24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
25 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:
26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
28 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.
29 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.
30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.
31 The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying unto him, Get thee out, and depart hence: for Herod will kill thee.
32 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.
33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
34 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!
35 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.
