Luke 13 (TRV)

From Textus Receptus

Revision as of 17:42, 29 June 2014

• 1 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

• 2 And Jesus replied and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things?

• 3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.

• 4 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?

• 5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”

• 6 He also spoke this parable: “A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none.

• 7 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 use up the ground?’

• 8 But he answered and said to him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

• 9 And if it bears fruit, well. But if not, then after that you can cut it down.’”

• 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 lift herself up.

• 12 But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.”

• 13 And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

• 14 But the ruler of the synagogue responded with indignation, because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath day; and he said to the people, “There are six days on which men ought to work; therefore come and be healed on them, and not on the Sabbath day.”

• 15 The Lord then replied to him and said, “You hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it?

• 16 So ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound, behold, for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?”

• 17 And when He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame; and all the people rejoiced for of all the glorious things that were done by Him.

• 18 Then He said, “What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?

• 19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and threw in his garden; and it grew and became a large tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”

• 20 And again He said, “To what will I liken the kingdom of God?

• 21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until it was all leavened.”

• 22 And He went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

• 23 Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to them,

• 24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, because many, I say to you, will seek to enter in and will not be able.

• 25 When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will reply and say to you, ‘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 have taught in our streets.’

• 27 But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’

• 28 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, and you yourselves thrust out.

• 29 And they will come from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south, and will sit down in the kingdom of God.

• 30 And behold there are last who will be first, and there are first who will be last.”

• 31 On the same day some Pharisees came, saying to Him, “Get out and depart from here, because Herod will kill You.”

• 32 And He said to them,

“You go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I will be perfected.’

• 33 Nevertheless I must walk today, tomorrow, and the day following; because, it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.

• 34 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to you! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing!

• 35 Behold! Your house is left to you desolate; and truly, I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you will say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!’”
