For when thou go with thine opponent to the magistrate on the way give effort to be delivered from him, lest he may drag thee to the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and the officer would cast thee into prison.

And he spoke this parable. A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.

And he said to the vine workman, Behold, three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none. Cut it down, why also waste the ground?

And having answered, he says to him, Sir, allow it this year also until I may dig around it and cast manure.

And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.

And when Jesus saw her, he called out, and said to her, Woman, thou are loosed from thine infirmity.

And he laid his hands upon her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

And having responded, the synagogue-ruler, being indignant because Jesus healed on the Sabbath, answered and said to the multitude, There are six days in which he ought to work. Therefore coming in these, be healed, and not on the

And as he said these things all those opposing him were shamed, and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

And he said, What is the kingdom of God like, and to what will I compare it?

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

And he went through by cities and villages, teaching, and making a journey toward Jerusalem.

And a certain man said to him, Lord, are they few who are being saved? And he said to them,

From the time the house-ruler has risen up, and has closed the door, and ye begin to stand outside, and to knock the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us, and having answered, he will say to you, I know not where ye are from,

And he will say, I tell you, I know not where ye are from. Depart from me, all ye workmen of unrighteousness.

And he said to them, Having gone, say to this fox, Behold, I cast out demons and finish cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I am fully perfected.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather thy children together as a hen does her brood under her wings, and ye would not.

Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And I say to you, that ye will, no, not see me, until it will come when ye say, Blessed is he who comes in the name of Lord.

And it came to pass, when he went into the house of a certain man of the chiefs of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.

But they were silent. And having taken him, he healed him and released him.

And having responded, he said to them, Of which of you will a son or an ox fall into a pit, and he will not straightaway lift him out on the day of the Sabbath?

And he spoke a parable to those who were invited when he noticed how they chose out the chief places, saying to them,

And he who invited thee and him, having come, will say to thee, Give place to this man, and then thou will begin with embarrassment to take the last place.

But when thou are invited, having gone, sit down in the last place, so that when he who has invited thee comes, he will say to thee, Friend, go up higher, then it will be esteem to thee in the presence of those dining with thee.

Because every man who lifts himself up will be made lower, and he who makes himself lower will be lifted up.

And he also said to the man who invited him, When thou make a dinner or a supper, do not call thy friends, nor thy brothers, nor thy kinsmen, nor prosperous neighbors, lest they also invite thee in return, and a recompense be made

And a certain man of those dining together having heard these things, he said to him, Blessed is he who will eat dinner in the kingdom of God.

And he said to him, A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many.

And he sent forth his bondman at the hour of the meal to say to those who were invited, Come, because all things are now ready.

And that bondman, having come, he informed his lord these things. Then the house-ruler having become angry, he said to his bondman, Go out quickly into the thoroughfares and lanes of the city, and bring here the poor and maimed and

Now many multitudes went with him, and having turned, he said to them,

If any man comes to me, and does not regard as inferior his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and besides his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

For which of you wanting to build a tower, does not, having first sat down, count the cost whether he has the things for completion?

Or what king going to encounter another king in war, will not, having first sat down, consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

And if not, while he is still far off, having sent a delegation, he asks the things about peace.

It is fit neither for the land nor for manure; they cast it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

And he spoke this parable to them, saying,

What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go for that which was lost until he finds it?

And when he finds it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

And when he comes to the house, he calls together his men friends and his men neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost.

And he said, A certain man had two sons,

and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.

And not many days after, the younger son, having gathered all together, journeyed into a distant country, and there he squandered his wealth living recklessly.

And when he spent all, a mighty famine developed in that country, and he began to be in want.

And having gone, he was joined to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

And he longed to fill his belly from the husks that the swine ate, and no man gave to him.

But when he came to himself, he said, How many hired men of my father's have abundance of loaves, but I am perishing with hunger.

And having risen, he went to his father. But while he was still distant, afar off, his father saw him and felt compassion. And having ran, he fell on his neck, and kissed him much.

because this my son was dead, and became alive again. And he was lost, and is found. And they began to be cheerful.

But his elder son was in a field. And while coming, having approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

And he said to him, Thy brother arrived, and thy father has killed the fatted calf, because he received him back healthy.

But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore, his father having come out, he called him.

But having answered, he said to his father, Lo, so many years do I serve thee, and I never passed by a commandment of thine, and yet thou never gave me a goat that I might be merry with my friends.

And he said to him, Child, thou are always with me, and all my things are yours.

And he also said to his disciples, There was a certain rich man who had a manager, and this man was accused to him as squandering things possessed by him.

And having called him, he said to him, What is this I hear about thee? Render the account of thy management, for thou can no longer manage.

And having summoned each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much do thou owe to my lord?

And he said, A hundred measures of olive oil. And he said to him, Receive thy document, and having sat down, quickly write fifty.

Next he said to another, And how much do thou owe? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. And he says to him, Receive thy document, and write eighty.

And his lord commended the unrighteous manager because he did shrewdly. Because the sons of this age are shrewder in their own generation than the sons of the light.

No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

And he said to them, Ye are those who declare yourselves righteous in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts. Because what is lofty among men is an abomination in the sight of God.

Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously daily.

And having lifted up his eyes in Hades, being in torments, he sees Abraham from afar and Lazarus by his bosom.

And having cried out, he said, Father Abraham, be merciful to me, and send Lazarus, so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this flame.

But Abraham said, Child, remember that thou in thy lifetime received thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things. But now here he is comforted and thou are in agony.

And he said, I beg thee therefore, father, that thou would send him to my father's house,

for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

And he said, No, father Abraham, but if some man would go to them from the dead they will repent.

And he said to him, If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if some man would rise from the dead.

And he said to his disciples, It is impossible for the stumbling-blocks not to come, but woe to him through whom they come!

It is better for him if a donkey-powered millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.

Take heed to yourselves. And if thy brother should sin against thee, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.

And if he should sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times in the day turn back, saying, I repent, thou will forgive him.

But which of you having a bondman plowing or feeding livestock, who, when he comes in from the field, will straightaway say, After coming near, sit down?

Will he not rather say to him, Prepare what I may dine, and having gird thyself, serve me until I eat and drink, and after these things thou will eat and drink?

Does he have a favor for that bondman because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.

And it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem, that he was passing through the middle of Samaria and Galilee.

And as he entered into a certain village, ten leprous men who stood from afar met him.

And when he saw them, he said to them, After departing, display yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, during their going they were cleansed.

And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back with a great voice glorifying God.

And he fell upon his face beside his feet giving him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.

And he said to him, After rising, go. Thy faith has healed thee.

And questioned by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God comes, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation,

And he said to the disciples, The days will come when ye will long to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye will not see it.

But in that day Lot went out from Sodom he rained fire and brimstone from the sky, and destroyed them all.

In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his vessels in the house, let him not go down to take them up. And let him who is in the field likewise not return for the things behind.

And having answered, they say to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there the vultures will be gathered together.

And he also spoke a parable to them about it being necessary to always pray, and not to give up,

And for a time he would not, but after these things he said within himself, Although I fear not God, and regard not man,

And God, will he, no, not do the vengeance of his chosen who cry out to him day and night, and yet being patient toward them?

I say to you, that he will do their vengeance speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, will he then find faith on the earth?

And he also spoke this parable to some of those who were persuaded in themselves that they were righteous, and disdained other men.

I say to you, this man went down to his house justified rather than that man. Because every man who lifts himself up will be made lower, and he who makes himself lower will be lifted up.

And they were also bringing the infants to him, so that he would touch them, but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

And he said, All these things I have kept from my youth.

And when he heard these things, Jesus said to him, Yet one thing is lacking from thee. Sell all things, as many as thou have, and distribute to the poor, and thou will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.

But when he heard these things, he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich.

And having seen him become very sorrowful, Jesus said, How difficultly those who have riches will enter into the kingdom of God.

And he said, The things impossible with men are possible with God.
