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

Now he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.

There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

But the ruler of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the people, "There are six days on which work ought to be done; come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."

Then the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites! Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it?

He went on his way through towns and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you! How often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing!

At that very time some Pharisees came, and said to him, "Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you."

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

When he said this, all his adversaries were put to shame; and all the people rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by him.

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

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

When once the owner of the house has risen up and shut the door, you will begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open for us.' He will answer you, 'I do not know where you come from.'

It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his garden; and it grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches."

But he will say, 'I tell you, I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity!'

Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'

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

Nevertheless I must journey today and tomorrow, and the day following; for it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.

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.

Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!'"

Then he said, "What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?

And men will come from east and west, and from north and south, and sit at table in the kingdom of God.

Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all the others who dwelt in Jerusalem?

And Jesus answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered this way?

He told this parable: "A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none.

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 I finish my course.'

And there was a woman who had had a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years; she was bent over and could not straighten up at all.

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

Then ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound for eighteen years, be loosed on the Sabbath day from this bond?"

Then one said to him, "Lord, will those who are saved be few?" And he said to them,

So 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 should it use up the ground?'

And he answered him, 'Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

And he laid his hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and praised God.

When Jesus saw her, he called her forward and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."

And if it bears fruit next year, fine; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
