13JUST AT that time there [arrived] some people who informed Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.G1161G3918G1722G846G2540G5100G518G846G4012G1057G3739G129G4091G3396G3326G846G23782And He replied by saying to them, Do you think that these Galileans were greater sinners than all the other Galileans because they have suffered in this way?G2532G2424G611G2036G846G1380G3754G3778G1057G1096G268G3844G3956G1057G3754G3958G51083I tell you, No; but unless you repent (change your mind for the better and heartily amend your ways, with abhorrence of your past sins), you will all likewise perish {and} be lost eternally.G3004G5213G3780G235G3362G3340G622G3956G5615G6224Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them--do you think that they were more guilty offenders (debtors) than all the others who dwelt in Jerusalem?G2228G1565G1176G2532G3638G1909G3739G4444G1722G4611G4098G2532G615G846G1380G3754G3778G1096G3781G3844G3956G444G2730G1722G24195I tell you, No; but unless you repent (change your mind for the better and heartily amend your ways, with abhorrence of your past sins), you will all likewise perish {and} be lost eternally.G3004G5213G3780G235G3362G3340G622G3956G3668G6226And He told them this parable: A certain man had a fig tree, planted in his vineyard, and he came looking for fruit on it, but did not find [any].G3004G1161G5026G3850G5100G2192G4808G5452G1722G846G290G2532G2064G2212G2590G1722G846G2532G2147G37567So he said to the vinedresser, See here! For these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree and I find none. Cut it down! Why should it continue also to use up the ground [to deplete the soil, intercept the sun, and take up room]?G1161G2036G4314G289G2400G5140G2094G2064G2212G2590G1722G5026G4808G2532G2147G3756G1581G846G1581G2444G2532G2673G846G10938But he replied to him, Leave it alone, sir, [just] this one more year, till I dig around it and put manure [on the soil].G1161G611G3004G846G2962G863G846G863G5124G2094G2532G2193G3755G4626G4012G846G2532G906G28749Then perhaps it will bear fruit after this; but if not, you can cut it down {and} out.G2579G3303G4160G2590G1490G1519G3195G1581G846G158110Now Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.G1161G2258G1321G1722G3391G4864G1722G452111And there was a woman there who for eighteen years had had an infirmity caused by a spirit (a demon of sickness). She was bent completely forward and utterly unable to straighten herself up {or} to look upward.G2532G2400G2258G1135G2192G4151G769G1176G2532G3638G2094G2532G2258G4794G2532G1410G1519G3361G3838G35212And when Jesus saw her, He called [her to Him] and said to her, Woman, you are released from your infirmity!G1161G2424G1492G846G4377G2532G2036G846G1135G630G4675G76913Then He laid [His] hands on her, and instantly she was made straight, and she recognized {and} thanked {and} praised God.G2532G2007G5495G2007G846G2532G3916G461G2532G1392G231614But the leader of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, There are six days on which work ought to be done; so come on those days and be cured, and not on the Sabbath day.G1161G752G611G23G3754G2424G2323G4521G3004G3793G1526G1803G2250G1722G3739G1163G2038G1722G5025G3767G2064G2323G2532G3361G4521G225015But the Lord replied to him, saying, You playactors (hypocrites)! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his donkey from the stall and lead it out to water it?G2962G3767G611G846G2532G2036G5273G3089G3756G1538G5216G4521G3089G846G1016G2228G3688G575G5336G2532G520G422216And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?G1161G1163G3756G5026G5607G2364G11G3739G4567G1210G2400G1176G2532G3638G2094G3089G575G5127G1199G4521G225017Even as He said this, all His opponents were put to shame, and all the people were rejoicing over all the glorious things that were being done by Him.G2532G846G3004G5023G3956G846G480G2617G2532G3956G3793G5463G1909G3956G1741G1096G5259G84618This led Him to say, What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?G1161G3004G5101G2076G932G2316G3664G2532G5101G3666G84619It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his own garden; and it grew and became a tree, and the wild birds found shelter {and} roosted {and} nested in its branches.G2076G3664G2848G4615G3739G444G2983G906G1519G1438G2779G2532G837G2532G1096G1519G3173G1186G2532G4071G3772G2681G1722G2798G84620And again He said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?G2532G3825G2036G5101G3666G932G231621It is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of wheat flour {or} meal until it was all leavened (fermented).G2076G3664G2219G3739G1135G2983G1470G1519G5140G4568G224G2193G3739G3650G222022[Jesus] journeyed on through towns and villages, teaching, and making His way toward Jerusalem.G2532G1279G2596G4172G2532G2968G1321G2532G4160G4197G1519G241923And someone asked Him, Lord, will only a few be saved (rescued, delivered from the penalties of the last judgment, and made partakers of the salvation by Christ)? And He said to them,G1161G2036G5100G4314G846G2962G1487G3641G4982G1161G2036G84624Strive to enter by the narrow door [force yourselves through it], for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.G75G1525G1223G4728G4439G3754G4183G3004G5213G2212G1525G2532G2480G3756G248025When once the Master of the house gets up and closes the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door [again and again], saying, Lord, open to us! He will answer you, I do not know where [what household--certainly not Mine] you come from.G575G3739G302G3617G1453G2532G608G2374G2532G756G2476G1854G2532G2925G2374G3004G2962G2962G455G2254G2532G611G2046G5213G1492G5209G3756G4159G207526Then you will begin to say, We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.G5119G756G3004G5315G2532G4095G4675G1799G2532G1321G1722G2257G411327But He will say, I tell you, I do not know where [what household--certainly not Mine] you come from; depart from Me, all you wrongdoers!G2532G2046G3004G5213G1492G5209G3756G4159G2075G868G575G1700G3956G2040G9328There will be weeping and grinding of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves being cast forth (banished, driven away).G1563G2071G2805G2532G1030G3599G3752G3700G11G2532G2464G2532G2384G2532G3956G4396G1722G932G2316G1161G5209G1544G185429And [people] will come from east and west, and from north and south, and sit down (feast at table) in the kingdom of God.G2532G2240G575G395G2532G1424G2532G575G1005G2532G3558G2532G347G1722G932G231630And behold, there are some [now] last who will be first [then], and there are some [now] first who will be last [then].G2532G2400G1526G2078G3739G2071G4413G2532G1526G4413G3739G2071G207831At that very hour some Pharisees came up and said to Him, Go away from here, for Herod is determined to kill You.G1722G846G2250G4334G5100G5330G3004G846G1831G2532G4198G1782G3754G2264G2309G615G457132And He said to them, Go and tell that fox [sly and crafty, skulking and cowardly], Behold, I drive out demons and perform healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I finish (complete) My course.G2532G2036G846G4198G2036G5026G258G2400G1544G1140G2532G2005G2392G4594G2532G839G2532G5154G504833Nevertheless, I must continue on My way today and tomorrow and the day after that--for it will never do for a prophet to be destroyed away from Jerusalem!G4133G3165G1163G4198G4594G2532G839G2532G2192G3754G3756G1735G4396G622G1854G241934O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who continue to kill the prophets and to stone those who are sent to you! How often I have desired {and} yearned to gather your children together [around Me], as a hen [gathers] her young under her wings, but you would not!G2419G2419G3588G615G4396G2532G3036G649G4314G846G4212G2309G1996G4675G5043G1996G3739G5158G3733G1438G3555G5259G4420G2532G2309G375635Behold, your house is forsaken (abandoned, left to you destitute of God's help)! And I tell you, you will not see Me again until the time comes when you shall say, Blessed (to be celebrated with praises) is He Who comes in the name of the Lord!G2400G5216G3624G863G5213G2048G1161G281G3004G5213G3754G1492G3364G1492G3165G2193G302G2240G3753G2036G2127G2064G1722G3686G2962
