New Living Translation

1Now on the same occasion there were some present who reported to Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

1About this time Jesus was informed that Pilate had murdered some people from Galilee as they were offering sacrifices at the Temple.

2And Jesus said to them, "Do you suppose that these Galileans were greater sinners than all other Galileans because they suffered this fate?

2 “Do you think those Galileans were worse sinners than all the other people from Galilee?” Jesus asked. “Is that why they suffered?

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

3 Not at all! And you will perish, too, unless you repent of your sins and turn to God.

4"Or do you suppose that those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them were worse culprits than all the men who live in Jerusalem?

4 And what about the eighteen people who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them? Were they the worst sinners in Jerusalem?

5"I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish."

5 No, and I tell you again that unless you repent, you will perish, too.” Parable of the Barren Fig Tree

6And He began telling this parable: "A man had a fig tree which had been planted in his vineyard; and he came looking for fruit on it and did not find any.

6Then Jesus told this story: “A man planted a fig tree in his garden and came again and again to see if there was any fruit on it, but he was always disappointed.

7"And he said to the vineyard-keeper, 'Behold, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree without finding any. Cut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?'

7 Finally, he said to his gardener, ‘I’ve waited three years, and there hasn’t been a single fig! Cut it down. It’s just taking up space in the garden.’

8"And he answered and said to him, 'Let it alone, sir, for this year too, until I dig around it and put in fertilizer;

8 “The gardener answered, ‘Sir, give it one more chance. Leave it another year, and I’ll give it special attention and plenty of fertilizer.

9and if it bears fruit next year, fine; but if not, cut it down.'"

9 If we get figs next year, fine. If not, then you can cut it down.’” Jesus Heals on the Sabbath

10And He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.

10One Sabbath day as Jesus was teaching in a synagogue,

11And there was a woman who for eighteen years had had a sickness caused by a spirit; and she was bent double, and could not straighten up at all.

11he saw a woman who had been crippled by an evil spirit. She had been bent double for eighteen years and was unable to stand up straight.

12When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your sickness."

12When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said, “Dear woman, you are healed of your sickness!”

13And He laid His hands on her; and immediately she was made erect again and began glorifying God.

13Then he touched her, and instantly she could stand straight. How she praised God!

14But the synagogue official, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, began saying to the crowd in response, "There are six days in which work should be done; so come during them and get healed, and not on the Sabbath day."

14But the leader in charge of the synagogue was indignant that Jesus had healed her on the Sabbath day. “There are six days of the week for working,” he said to the crowd. “Come on those days to be healed, not on the Sabbath.”

15But the Lord answered him and said, "You hypocrites, does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the stall and lead him away to water him?

15But the Lord replied, “You hypocrites! Each of you works on the Sabbath day! Don’t you untie your ox or your donkey from its stall on the Sabbath and lead it out for water?

16"And this woman, a daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan has bound for eighteen long years, should she not have been released from this bond on the Sabbath day?"

16 This dear woman, a daughter of Abraham, has been held in bondage by Satan for eighteen years. Isn’t it right that she be released, even on the Sabbath?”

17As He said this, all His opponents were being humiliated; and the entire crowd was rejoicing over all the glorious things being done by Him.

17This shamed his enemies, but all the people rejoiced at the wonderful things he did. Parable of the Mustard Seed

18So He was saying, "What is the kingdom of God like, and to what shall I compare it?

18Then Jesus said, “What is the Kingdom of God like? How can I illustrate 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 THE BIRDS OF THE AIR NESTED IN ITS BRANCHES."

19 It is like a tiny mustard seed that a man planted in a garden; it grows and becomes a tree, and the birds make nests in its branches.” Parable of the Yeast

20And again He said, "To what shall I compare the kingdom of God?

20He also asked, “What else is the Kingdom of God like?

21"It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three pecks of flour until it was all leavened."

21 It is like the yeast a woman used in making bread. Even though she put only a little yeast in three measures of flour, it permeated every part of the dough.” The Narrow Door

22And He was passing through from one city and village to another, teaching, and proceeding on His way to Jerusalem.

22Jesus went through the towns and villages, teaching as he went, always pressing on toward Jerusalem.

23And someone said to Him, "Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?" And He said to them,

23Someone asked him, “Lord, will only a few be saved?” He replied,

24"Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

24 “Work hard to enter the narrow door to God’s Kingdom, for many will try to enter but will fail.

25"Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, 'Lord, open up to us!' then He will answer and say to you, 'I do not know where you are from.'

25 When the master of the house has locked the door, it will be too late. You will stand outside knocking and pleading, ‘Lord, open the door for us!’ But he will reply, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from.’

26"Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets';

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

27and He will say, 'I tell you, I do not know where you are from; DEPART FROM ME, ALL YOU EVILDOERS.'

27 And he will reply, ‘I tell you, I don’t know you or where you come from. Get away from me, all you who do evil.’

28"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 thrown out.

28 “There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, for you will see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the Kingdom of God, but you will be thrown out.

29"And they will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.

29 And people will come from all over the world—from east and west, north and south—to take their places in the Kingdom of God.

30"And behold, some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last."

30 And note this: Some who seem least important now will be the greatest then, and some who are the greatest now will be least important then. ” Jesus Grieves over Jerusalem

31Just at that time some Pharisees approached, saying to Him, "Go away, leave here, for Herod wants to kill You."

31At that time some Pharisees said to him, “Get away from here if you want to live! Herod Antipas wants to kill you!”

32And He said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I reach My goal.'

32Jesus replied, “Go tell that fox that I will keep on casting out demons and healing people today and tomorrow; and the third day I will accomplish my purpose.

33"Nevertheless I must journey on today and tomorrow and the next day; for it cannot be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.

33 Yes, today, tomorrow, and the next day I must proceed on my way. For it wouldn’t do for a prophet of God to be killed except in Jerusalem!

34"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not have it!

34 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God’s messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her chicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn’t let me.

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, 'BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD!'"

35 And now, look, your house is abandoned. And you will never see me again until you say, ‘Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the LORD !’ ”
