Luke 18
1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,
He was speaking then (and *ko) a parable to them about it needing always to pray (they *no) and not to lose heart
2 saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who didn’t fear God and didn’t respect man.
saying; A judge certain there was in a certain city God not fearing and man not respecting.
3 A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’
A widow then there was in the city that and she was coming to him saying; do avenge me of the adversary of mine.
4 He wouldn’t for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,
And not (he was desiring [to do] *N+kO) for a time. afterward however he said within himself; If even God not I fear (nor *N+kO) man respect,
5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”
because yet it occasioning me trouble widow this I will avenge her, so that not to end coming she may exhaust me.
6 The Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
Said then the Lord; do hear what the judge unrighteous says;
7 Won’t God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
And God certainly not (may do *N+kO) the avenging of the elect of Him the [ones] crying out (to *k) (to Him *N+kO) day and night, and (be patient *N+kO) in regard to them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
I say to you that He will carry out the avenging of them with speed. Nevertheless the Son of Man having come surely not will He find faith on the earth?
9 He also spoke this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others:
He spoke now also to some having trusted in themselves that they are righteous and (despising *NK+o) the others parable this.
10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
Men two went up into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of men: extortionists, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
The Pharisee having stood toward himself these things was praying; O God, I thank You that not I am (like *NK+o) the rest of the men — swindlers, unrighteous, adulterers — or even like this tax collector.
12 I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.’
I fast twice in the week, I tithe all things as much as I gain.
13 But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn’t even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
(and *ko) (but *no) the tax collector afar off having stood not was willing not even the eyes to lift up to heaven but was striking (into *k) the breast (of him *NK+o) saying: O God, do be merciful to me to the sinner!
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
I say to you; went down this one justified to the house of him (rather than *k) (compared with *n+o) (that [one]. *N+kO) For everyone who is exalting himself will be humbled, the [one] however humbling himself will be exalted.

16 Jesus summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and don’t hinder them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
But Jesus (called *N+kO) them (speaking; *N+kO) do permit the little children to come to Me and not do forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Most certainly, I tell you, whoever doesn’t receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
Amen I say to you; who[ever] (maybe *N+kO) not shall receive the kingdom of God as a child, certainly not shall enter into it.

23 But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
And having heard these things very sorrowful (he became; *N+kO) he was for rich extremely.

Having seen then him Jesus sorrowful became saying; How difficult [for] those riches having [when] into the kingdom of God (they enter. *N+kO)
25 For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Easier for it is a camel through (an eye of a needle *N+kO) to go than a rich man into the kingdom of God to enter.
26 Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”

But He said; The [things] impossible with men possible with God are.

And He said to them; Amen I say to you that no [one] there is who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,

Having taken aside then the Twelve He said to them; Behold we go up to (Jerusalem, *N+kO) and will be accomplished all things which written through the prophets about the Son of Man;
32 For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
He will be betrayed for to the Gentiles and will be mocked and will be insulted and will be spit upon,
33 They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”
And having flogged [Him] they will kill Him, and on the day third He will rise again.

It came to pass then in the drawing near by Him to Jericho a blind [man] certain was sitting beside the road (begging. *N+kO)

(saying *ko) What to you desire you I may do? And he said; Lord, that I may receive sight.
42 Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”
And Jesus said to him; do receive sight: The faith of you has healed you.
