Luke 13
1 Just at that time people came to tell Him about the Galilaeans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
Aderant autem quidam ipso in tempore, nunciantes illi de Galilæis, quorum sanguinem Pilatus miscuit cum sacrificiis eorum.
2 "Do you suppose," He asked in reply, "that those Galilaeans were worse sinners than the mass of the Galilaeans, because this happened to them?
Et respondens dixit illis: Putatis quod hi Galilæi præ omnibus Galilæis peccatores fuerint, quia talia passi sunt?
3 I tell you, certainly not. On the contrary, if you are not penitent you will all perish as they did.
Non, dico vobis: sed nisi pœnitentiam habueritis, omnes similiter peribitis.
4 Or those eighteen on whom the tower at Siloam fell, do you suppose they had failed in their duty more than all the rest of the people who live in Jerusalem?
Sicut illi decem et octo, supra quos cecidit turris in Siloe, et occidit eos: putatis quia et ipsi debitores fuerint præter omnes homines habitantes in Ierusalem?
5 I tell you, certainly not. On the contrary, if you do not repent you will all perish just as they did."
Non, dico vobis: sed si pœnitentiam non egeritis, omnes similiter peribitis.
6 And He gave them the following parable. "A man," He said, "who had a fig-tree growing in his garden came to look for fruit on it and could find none.
Dicebat autem et hanc similitudinem: Arborem fici habebat quidam plantatam in vinea sua, et venit quærens fructum in illa, et non invenit.
7 So he said to the gardener, "'See, this is the third year I have come to look for fruit on this fig-tree and cannot find any. Cut it down. Why should so much ground be actually wasted?'
Dixit autem ad cultorem vineæ: Ecce anni tres sunt ex quo venio quærens fructum in ficulnea hac, et non invenio: succide ergo illam: ut quid etiam terram occupat?
8 "But the gardener pleaded, "'Leave it, Sir, this year also, till I have dug round it and manured it.
At ille respondens, dicit illi: Domine dimitte illam et hoc anno, usque dum fodiam circa illam, et mittam stercora:
9 If after that it bears fruit, well and good; if it does not, then you shall cut it down.'"
et siquidem fecerit fructum: sin autem, in futurum succides eam.
10 Once He was teaching on the Sabbath in one of the synagogues
Erat autem docens in synagoga eorum Sabbatis.
11 where a woman was present who for eighteen years had been a confirmed invalid: she was bent double, and was unable to lift herself to her full height.
Et ecce mulier, quæ habebat spiritum infirmitatis annis decem et octo: et erat inclinata, nec omnino poterat sursum respicere.
12 But Jesus saw her, and calling to her, He said to her, "Woman, you are free from your weakness."
Quam cum videret Iesus, vocavit eam ad se, et ait illi: Mulier, dimissa es ab infirmitate tua.
13 And He put His hands on her, and she immediately stood upright and began to give glory to God.
Et imposuit illi manus, et confestim erecta est, et glorificabat Deum.
14 Then the Warden of the Synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured her on a Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days in the week on which people ought to work. On those days therefore come and get yourselves cured, and not on the Sabbath day."
Respondens autem archisynagogus, indignans quia Sabbato curasset Iesus: dicebat turbæ: Sex dies sunt, in quibus oportet operari: in his ergo venite, et curamini, et non in die Sabbati.
15 But the Lord's reply to him was, "Hypocrites, does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his bullock or his ass from the stall and lead him to water?
Respondens autem ad illum Dominus dixit: Hypocritæ, unusquisque vestrum Sabbato non solvit bovem suum, aut asinum a præsepio, et ducit adaquare?
16 And this woman, daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan had bound for no less than eighteen years, was she not to be loosed from this chain because it is the Sabbath day?"
Hanc autem filiam Abrahæ, quam alligavit Satanas, ecce decem et octo annis non oportuit solvi a vinculo isto die Sabbati?
17 When He had said this, all His opponents were ashamed, while the whole multitude was delighted at the many glorious things continually done by Him.
Et cum hæc diceret, erubescebant omnes adversarii eius: et omnis populus gaudebat in universis, quæ gloriose fiebant ab eo.
18 This prompted Him to say, "What is the Kingdom of God like? and to what shall I compare it?
Dicebat ergo: Cui simile est regnum Dei, et cui simile æstimabo illud?
19 It is like a mustard seed which a man drops into the soil in his garden, and it grows and becomes a tree in whose branches the birds roost."
Simile est grano sinapis, quod acceptum homo misit in hortum suum, et crevit, et factum est in arborem magnam: et volucres cæli requieverunt in ramis eius.
20 And again He said, "To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?
Et iterum dixit: Cui simile æstimabo regnum Dei?
21 It is like yeast which a woman takes and buries in a bushel of flour, to work there till the whole is leavened."
Simile est fermento, quod acceptum mulier abscondit in farinæ sata tria, donec fermentaretur totum.
22 He was passing through town after town and village after village, steadily proceeding towards Jerusalem,
Et ibat per civitates, et castella docens, et iter faciens in Ierusalem.
23 when some one asked Him, "Sir, are there but few who are to be saved?"
Ait autem illi quidam: Domine, si pauci sunt, qui salvantur? Ipse autem dixit ad illos:
24 "Strain every nerve to force your way in through the narrow gate," He answered; "for multitudes, I tell you, will endeavour to find a way in and will not succeed.
Contendite intrare per angustam portam: quia multi, dico vobis, quærent intrare, et non poterunt.
25 As soon as the Master of the house shall have risen and shut the door, and you have begun to stand outside and knock at the door and say, "'Sir, open the door for us' --"'I do not know you,' He answers; 'you are no friends of mine.'
Cum autem intraverit paterfamilias, et clauserit ostium, incipietis foris stare, et pulsare ostium, dicentes: Domine, aperi nobis: et respondens dicet vobis: Nescio vos unde sitis:
26 "Then you will plead, "'We have eaten and drunk in your company and you have taught in our streets.'
tunc incipietis dicere: Manducavimus coram te, et bibimus, et in plateis nostris docuisti.
27 "But He will reply, "'I tell you that you are no friends of mine. Begone from me, all of you, wrongdoers that you are.'
Et dicet vobis: Nescio vos unde sitis: discedite a me omnes operarii iniquitatis.
28 "There will be the weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the Prophets in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being driven far away.
Ibi erit fletus, et stridor dentium: cum videritis Abraham, et Isaac, et Iacob, et omnes Prophetas in regno Dei, vos autem expelli foras.
29 They will come from east and west, from north and south, and will sit down at the banquet in the Kingdom of God.
Et venient ab Oriente, et Occidente, et Aquilone, et Austro, et accumbent in regno Dei.
30 And I tell you that some now last will then be first, and some now first will then be last."
Et ecce sunt novissimi qui erunt primi, et sunt primi qui erunt novissimi.
31 Just at that time there came some Pharisees who warned Him, saying, "Leave this place and continue your journey; Herod means to kill you."
In ipsa die accesserunt quidam Pharisæorum, dicentes illi: Exi, et vade hinc: quia Herodes vult te occidere.
32 "Go," He replied, "and take this message to that fox: "'See, to-day and to-morrow I am driving out demons and effecting cures, and on the third day I finish my course.'
Et ait illis: Ite, et dicite vulpi illi: Ecce eiicio dæmonia, et sanitates perficio hodie, et cras, et tertia die consummor.
33 "Yet I must continue my journey to-day and to-morrow and the day following; for it is not conceivable that a Prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.
Verumtamen oportet me hodie et cras et sequenti die ambulare: quia non capit prophetam perire extra Ierusalem.
34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou who murderest the Prophets and stonest those who have been sent to thee, how often have I desired to gather thy children just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not come!
Ierusalem, Ierusalem, quæ occidis Prophetas, et lapidas eos, qui mittuntur ad te, quoties volui congregare filios tuos quemadmodum avis nidum suum sub pennis, et noluisti?
35 See, your house is left to you. But I tell you that you will never see me again until you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!'"
Ecce relinquetur vobis domus vestra deserta. Dico autem vobis, quia non videbitis me donec veniat cum dicetis: Benedictus, qui venit in nomine Domini.
