\subsection{Luke 13}
\subsubsection{A Call to Repent}
\VS{1} Now there were at hand some in that opportune-time\fnKairos{} reporting to him
concerning the Galileans whose blood Pilate mingled with their sacrifice.
\VS{2} And answering he said to them: Do you suppose that these Galileans
were sinners more than all the Galileans because of these [things] that they
suffered?
\VS{3} No, I say to you, but if you do not repent, you will all
likewise perish.
\VS{4} Or those eighteen upon whom fell the tower in Siloam
and killed them, do you suppose them to have been debtors more than all the
men inhabiting Jerusalem?
\VS{5} No, I say to you, but if you do not repent,
you will all likewise perish.
\subsubsection{Warning to Israel to Bear Fruit}
\VS{6} But he was saying this parable: A
certain man has [a] fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit
on it and found none.
\VS{7} So he said to his vinedresser: Behold from
which three years I come seeking fruit on this tree and found none. Cut it
down, why also waste the land?
\VS{8} But answering he said to him: Lord,
leave it even this year, until I dig around it and throw dung,
\VS{9} and for result it may give fruit. Otherwise, cut it down.
\subsubsection{Healing on the Sabbath}
\VS{10} Now he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.
\VS{11} And behold [a] woman having [a] spirit of sickliness eighteen years; and she was bent over and unable to stand completely erect.
\VS{12} So Jesus seeing her
called out and said to her: Woman, you are released [of your] sickliness,
\VS{13} and laid upon her his hands, and immediately she became erect, and was
glorifying God.
\VS{14} But the chief of the synagogue answering, being
indignant that Jesus healed on the Sabbath, was saying to the crowd that:
There are six days in which one must work. In those coming therefore be
healing and not on the day of the Sabbath.
\VS{15} But the Lord answered him
and said: Hypocrites, don't each [of you] on the Sabbath loose your ox or ass from
the manger and leading give them to drink?
\VS{16} But this [one] being [a] daughter
of Abraham, who satan bound behold ten and eight years, wasn't it necessary
she be loosed from this bond on the day of the Sabbath?
\VS{17} And when he
said these [things] all his opponents were disgraced, and all the crowd rejoiced
upon all the splendid [things] that came to pass by him.
\subsubsection{On the Kingdom of God}
\VS{18} He was saying
therefore: To what is the kingdom of God like, and to what will I liken it?
\VS{19} It is like [a] mustard seed, which taking, [a] man placed in his garden,
and it grew and became [a] tree, and the birds of heaven nested in its
branches.
\VS{20} And again he said: To what will I liken the kingdom of
God?
\VS{21} It is like leaven, which taking, [a] woman hid in three measures
of meal, until the whole was leavened.
\subsubsection{The Narrow Door}
\VS{22} And he was going through by
city and town teaching and doing the journey to Jerusalem.
\VS{23} But
someone said to him: Lord, [are] few being saved? But he said to him:
\VS{24} Be
striving to enter through the narrow door, for many, I say to you, will seek
to enter and will not be strong enough.
\VS{25} When the master of the house
arises and closes the door, and you begin to stand outside and to be knocking
on the door saying: Lord, open to us, and answering he will say to you: I do
not know whence you are.
\VS{26} Then you will begin to be saying: We
ate before you and drank, and in our streets you taught.
\VS{27} And he will
say to them: I do not know whence you are. Depart from me all [who] do injustice.
\VS{28} There will there be weeping and gnashing\footnote{or ``grinding,''
``biting,'' ``snarling''} of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and
all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you cast out.
\VS{29} And they will come from the east and the west and from north and south, and banquet in the kingdom of God.
\VS{30} And behold the last will be first and the first will be last.
\subsubsection{Going to Jerusalem}
\VS{31} In that hour certain Pharisees came and said to him: Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you.
\VS{32} And he said to them: Go and tell that fox: Behold, I cast out demons and perform healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will be completed\footnote{or ``perfected''}.
\VS{33} Neverthess I must go [on my way] today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that [a] prophet should perish away from Jerusalem.
\VS{34} Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the [city] that kills the prophets and stones those sent to it.
How often would I have gathered your children together as [a] hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not!
\VS{35} Behold, your house is forsaken. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say: Blessed [is] the one coming in the name of the Lord!
