NOW at that time came some and told him of the Galiloyee, they whose blood Pilatos had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 tataH sa pratyuvAca tESAM lOkAnAm EtAdRzI durgati rghaTitA tatkAraNAd yUyaM kimanyEbhyO gAlIlIyEbhyOpyadhikapApinastAn bOdhadhvE?
Jeshu answered and said to them, Think you that these Galiloyee were sinners more than all the Galiloyee, that thus it was (with) them?
3 yuSmAnahaM vadAmi tathA na kintu manaHsu na parAvarttitESu yUyamapi tathA naMkSyatha|
No; but I tell you that all of you also, if you repent not, will thus perish.

Or those eighteen on whom fell the tower in Silucha, and killed them; think you that they were sinners above all men who dwell in Urishlem?
5 yuSmAnahaM vadAmi tathA na kintu manaHsu na parivarttitESu yUyamapi tathA naMkSyatha|
No; but I tell you that, if you repent not, all of you likewise shall perish.

And he spake this parable: A man had a fig-tree which was planted in his vinery: and he came and sought fruits on it, but did not find.
7 kintu phalAprAptEH kAraNAd udyAnakAraM bhRtyaM jagAda, pazya vatsaratrayaM yAvadAgatya EtasminnuPumbaratarau kSalAnyanvicchAmi, kintu naikamapi prapnOmi tarurayaM kutO vRthA sthAnaM vyApya tiSThati? EnaM chindhi|
And he said to the husbandman, Behold, three years come I seeking fruits from this fig-tree, but I have not found: cut it down; why maketh it the ground useless?
8 tatO bhRtyaH pratyuvAca, hE prabhO punarvarSamEkaM sthAtum Adiza; Etasya mUlasya caturdikSu khanitvAham AlavAlaM sthApayAmi|
The husbandman saith to him, My lord, suffer it also this year, until I tend it and manure it:
9 tataH phalituM zaknOti yadi na phalati tarhi pazcAt chEtsyasi|
and if it produce fruits, (well): but if not, then afterwards I will cut it down.
10 atha vizrAmavArE bhajanagEhE yIzurupadizati
AS Jeshu was teaching on a shabath in one of the synagogues,
11 tasmit samayE bhUtagrastatvAt kubjIbhUyASTAdazavarSANi yAvat kEnApyupAyEna Rju rbhavituM na zaknOti yA durbbalA strI,
a woman was there who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed down, and could not be straight at all.
12 tAM tatrOpasthitAM vilOkya yIzustAmAhUya kathitavAn hE nAri tava daurbbalyAt tvaM muktA bhava|
But Jeshu saw her, and called her, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
13 tataH paraM tasyA gAtrE hastArpaNamAtrAt sA RjurbhUtvEzvarasya dhanyavAdaM karttumArEbhE|
And he laid his hand upon her; and at once she was made straight, and glorified Aloha.
14 kintu vizrAmavArE yIzunA tasyAH svAsthyakaraNAd bhajanagEhasyAdhipatiH prakupya lOkAn uvAca, SaTsu dinESu lOkaiH karmma karttavyaM tasmAddhEtOH svAsthyArthaM tESu dinESu Agacchata, vizrAmavArE mAgacchata|
But the chief of the synagogue answered, being angry that Jeshu had healed on the shabath, and said to the congregation, Six days there are in which it is lawful to work: in them come and be healed, and not on the day of shabath.
15 tadA pabhuH pratyuvAca rE kapaTinO yuSmAkam EkaikO janO vizrAmavArE svIyaM svIyaM vRSabhaM gardabhaM vA bandhanAnmOcayitvA jalaM pAyayituM kiM na nayati?
But Jeshu answered and said to him, Hypocrite, doth not any one of you on the shabath loose his ox or his ass from the manger, and going giveth to drink?
16 tarhyASTAdazavatsarAn yAvat zaitAnA baddhA ibrAhImaH santatiriyaM nArI kiM vizrAmavArE na mOcayitavyA?
But this daughter of Abraham, whom, behold, the Accuser hath bound eighteen years, is it not lawful to loose from this binding on the day of shabath?
17 ESu vAkyESu kathitESu tasya vipakSAH salajjA jAtAH kintu tEna kRtasarvvamahAkarmmakAraNAt lOkanivahaH sAnandO'bhavat|
And as he said these things, ashamed were all they who had risen up against him; and all the people rejoiced in all these wonders that were done by his hand.
18 anantaraM sOvadad Izvarasya rAjyaM kasya sadRzaM? kEna tadupamAsyAmi?
Jeshu said, What doth the kingdom of Aloha resemble, and to what shall I compare it?
19 yat sarSapabIjaM gRhItvA kazcijjana udyAna uptavAn tad bIjamagkuritaM sat mahAvRkSO'jAyata, tatastasya zAkhAsu vihAyasIyavihagA Agatya nyUSuH, tadrAjyaM tAdRzEna sarSapabIjEna tulyaM|
It resembles a grain of mustard, which a man took (and) cast into his garden: and it grew, and became a great tree; and the fowl of the heaven built in its branches.
20 punaH kathayAmAsa, Izvarasya rAjyaM kasya sadRzaM vadiSyAmi? yat kiNvaM kAcit strI gRhItvA drONatrayaparimitagOdhUmacUrNESu sthApayAmAsa,
Jeshu said again, To what shall I compare the kingdom of Aloha?
21 tataH kramENa tat sarvvagOdhUmacUrNaM vyApnOti, tasya kiNvasya tulyam Izvarasya rAjyaM|
It is like leaven which a woman took; (and) hid in three satas of meal, until all had leavened.
22 tataH sa yirUzAlamnagaraM prati yAtrAM kRtvA nagarE nagarE grAmE grAmE samupadizan jagAma|
And he journeyed, teaching in the villages and in the cities, and going forwards to Urishlem.
23 tadA kazcijjanastaM papraccha, hE prabhO kiM kEvalam alpE lOkAH paritrAsyantE?
ONE had demanded (of) him if they are few who are saved. But Jeshu said to them,
24 tataH sa lOkAn uvAca, saMkIrNadvArENa pravESTuM yataghvaM, yatOhaM yuSmAn vadAmi, bahavaH pravESTuM cESTiSyantE kintu na zakSyanti|
Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for I say to you that many will seek to enter in, but shall not be able.
25 gRhapatinOtthAya dvArE ruddhE sati yadi yUyaM bahiH sthitvA dvAramAhatya vadatha, hE prabhO hE prabhO asmatkAraNAd dvAraM mOcayatu, tataH sa iti prativakSyati, yUyaM kutratyA lOkA ityahaM na jAnAmi|
From the hour that the Lord of the house shall have risen up and have shut the door, you may stand without, knocking at the door, and may begin to say, Our Lord, our Lord, open to us! But he will answer and say, I tell you that I know not whence you are.
26 tadA yUyaM vadiSyatha, tava sAkSAd vayaM bhEjanaM pAnanjca kRtavantaH, tvanjcAsmAkaM nagarasya pathi samupadiSTavAn|
And you shall begin to say, Before thee we have eaten and drunk, and in our streets thou hast taught.
27 kintu sa vakSyati, yuSmAnahaM vadAmi, yUyaM kutratyA lOkA ityahaM na jAnAmi; hE durAcAriNO yUyaM mattO dUrIbhavata|
And he shall say to you, I know you not whence you are: depart from me, workers of falsity.

There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham and Ishok and Jakub and all the prophets in the kingdom of Aloha, but you be cast forth without.
29 aparanjca pUrvvapazcimadakSiNOttaradigbhyO lOkA Agatya Izvarasya rAjyE nivatsyanti|
And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the south, and from the north, and shall recline in the kingdom of Aloha.
30 pazyatEtthaM zESIyA lOkA agrA bhaviSyanti, agrIyA lOkAzca zESA bhaviSyanti|
And, behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.
31 aparanjca tasmin dinE kiyantaH phirUzina Agatya yIzuM prOcuH, bahirgaccha, sthAnAdasmAt prasthAnaM kuru, hErOd tvAM jighAMsati|
In that day came men from the Pharishee, saying to him, Remove, go from hence, because Herodes desireth to kill thee.
32 tataH sa pratyavOcat pazyatAdya zvazca bhUtAn vihApya rOgiNO'rOgiNaH kRtvA tRtIyEhni sEtsyAmi, kathAmEtAM yUyamitvA taM bhUrimAyaM vadata|
Jeshu saith to them, Go, tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils and perform cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third day I am perfected.
33 tatrApyadya zvaH parazvazca mayA gamanAgamanE karttavyE, yatO hEtO ryirUzAlamO bahiH kutrApi kOpi bhaviSyadvAdI na ghAniSyatE|
Nevertheless it behoveth me to-day and to-morrow to work and the (day) after I shall go; because it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Urishlem.
34 hE yirUzAlam hE yirUzAlam tvaM bhaviSyadvAdinO haMsi tavAntikE prEritAn prastarairmArayasi ca, yathA kukkuTI nijapakSAdhaH svazAvakAn saMgRhlAti, tathAhamapi tava zizUn saMgrahItuM kativArAn aicchaM kintu tvaM naicchaH|
Urishlem, Urishlem! killing the prophets, and stoning them that are sent to her, what times would I have gathered thy sons as the hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and you willed not!
35 pazyata yuSmAkaM vAsasthAnAni prOcchidyamAnAni parityaktAni ca bhaviSyanti; yuSmAnahaM yathArthaM vadAmi, yaH prabhO rnAmnAgacchati sa dhanya iti vAcaM yAvatkAlaM na vadiSyatha, tAvatkAlaM yUyaM mAM na drakSyatha|
Behold, left to you is your house a desert; for I say to you, that you will not see me until you shall say, Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord.
