< Luke 13 >

1 Ther were present at the same season that shewed him of ye Galileas whose bloude Pylate mengled with their awne sacrifice.
Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
2 And Iesus answered and sayde vnto them: Suppose ye that these Galileans were greater synners then all the other Galileas because they suffred suche punisshmet?
And he answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered these things?
3 I tell you naye: but except ye repent ye shall all in lyke wyse perysshe.
I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
4 Or those. xviii. apon which ye toure in Syloe fell and slewe the thinke ye that they were synners above all men yt dwell in Ierusalem?
Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who dwell in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you naye: But excepte ye repent ye all shall lykewyse perisshe.
I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
6 He put forthe this similiiude A certayne man had a fygge tree planted in his veneyarde and he came and sought frute theron and founde none.
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.
7 Then sayde he to ye dresser of his vyneyarde: Beholde this thre yeare have I come and sought frute in this fygge tree and fynde none: cut it doune: why combreth it the grounde?
He said to the vine dresser, 'Look, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'
8 And he answered and sayde vnto him: lorde let it alone this yeare also till I digge rounde aboute it and doge it to se
He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.
9 whether it will beare frute: and if it beare not then after yt cut it doune
And if it bears fruit next time, [fine]; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
10 And he taught in one of their sinagoges on ye saboth dayes.
He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
11 And beholde ther was a woma which had a sprete of infirmite. xviii. yeares: and was bowed to gether and coulde not lifte vp hersilfe at all.
And look, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.
12 When Iesus sawe her he called her to him and sayde to her: woman thou arte delyvered from thy disease.
When Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."
13 And he layde his hondes on her and immediatly she was made strayght and glorified God.
He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.
14 And the ruler of the sinagoge answered with indignacion (be cause that Iesus had healed on the saboth daye) and sayde vnto the people. Ther are sixe dayes in which men ought to worke: in them come and be healed and not on the saboth daye.
The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days when work should be done Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."
15 Then answered him the Lorde and sayd: Ypocrite doth not eache one of you on the saboth daye lowse his oxe or his asse from the stall and leade him to the water?
Therefore the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites. Does not each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?
16 And ought not this doughter of Abraham whom Sathan hath bounde loo. xviii. yeares be lowsed from this bonde on the saboth daye?
Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, look, eighteen years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?"
17 And when he thus sayde all his adversaries were ashamed and all the people reioysed on all the excellent dedes that were done by him.
As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the crowd rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
18 Then sayde he: What is the kyngdome of God lyke? or wherto shall I compare it?
Then he said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? And to what can I compare it?
19 It is lyke a grayne of mustard seede which a man toke and sowed in his garden: and it grewe and wexed a greate tree and the foules of the ayer made nestes in the braunches of it.
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
20 And agayne he sayde: wher vnto shall I lyken ye kyngdome of god?
And again he said, "To what can I compare the Kingdom of God?
21 it is lyke leve which a woman toke and hidde in thre busshels of floure tyll all was thorow levended.
It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."
22 And he went thorow all maner of cities and tounes teachinge and iorneyinge towardes Ierusalem.
He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.
23 Then sayde one vnto him: Lorde are ther feawe that shalbe saved? And he sayde vnto them:
One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,
24 stryve with youre selves to enter in at ye strayte gate: For many I saye vnto you will seke to enter in and shall not be able.
"Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
25 When the good man of ye housse is rysen vp and hath shett to the dore ye shall beginne to stonde with out and to knocke at the dore sayinge: Lorde lorde open vnto vs: and he shall answer and saye vnto you: I knowe you not whence ye are.
When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' then he will answer and tell you, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
26 Then shall ye begin to saye. We have eaten in thy presence and dronke and thou hast taught in oure stretes.
Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'
27 And he shall saye: I tell you I knowe you not whence ye are: departe from me all ye workers of iniquite.
But he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'
28 There shalbe wepinge and gnasshinge of teth when ye shall se Abraham and Isaac and Iacob and all the prophetes in the kyngdom of God and youre selves thrust oute at dores.
There will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
29 And they shall come from the eest and from the weest and from the northe and from the southe and shall syt doune in the kyngdome of God.
They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.
30 And beholde ther are last which shalbe fyrst: And ther are fyrst which shalbe last.
And look, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
31 The same daye there came certayne of the pharises and sayd vnto him: Get the out of the waye and departe hence: for Herode will kyll ye.
In that same hour some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
32 And he sayd vnto them. Goo ye and tell that foxe beholde I cast oute devyls and heale the people to daye and to morowe and the third daye I make an ende.
And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
33 Neverthelesse I must walke todaye and tomorowe and the daye folowinge: For it cannot be that a Prophet perishe eny other where save at Ierusalem.
Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.'
34 O Ierusalem Ierusalem which kyllest prophetes and stonest them that are sent to ye: how often wolde I have gadered thy childre to gedder as the hen gathereth her nest vnder her wynges but ye wolde not.
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused.
35 Beholde youre habitacion shalbe left vnto you desolate. For I tell you ye shall not se me vntill the tyme come that ye shall saye blessed is he that commeth in the name of the Lorde.
Look, your house is abandoned to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
