¹When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him.

KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), as^G1722 he^G846 went^G2064^(G5629) into^G1519 the house^G3624 of one^G5100 of the chief^G758 Pharisees^G5330 to eat^G5315^(G5629) bread^G740 on the sabbath^G4521 day, that^G2532 they^G846 watched^G2258^(G5713)^G3906^(G5734) him^G846.

² Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), there was^G2258^(G5713) a certain^G5100 man^G444 before^G1715 him^G846 which had the dropsy^G5203.

³ Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answering^G611^(G5679) spake^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 the lawyers^G3544 and^G2532 Pharisees^G5330, saying^G3004^(G5723), Is it^G1487 lawful^G1832^(G5748) to heal^G2323^(G5721) on the sabbath day^G4521?

⁴ But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.

KJVAnd^G1161 they held their peace^G2270^(G5656). And^G2532 he took^G1949^(G5637) him, and healed^G2390^(G5662) him^G846, and^G2532 let him go^G630^(G5656);

⁵ He answered them, “Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”

KJVAnd^G2532 answered^G611^(G5679) them^G4314^G846, saying^G2036^(G5627), Which^G5101 of you^G5216 shall have an ass^G3688 or^G2228 an ox^G1016 fallen^G1706^(G5695) into^G1519 a pit^G5421, and^G2532 will^G385 not^G3756 straightway^G2112 pull^G385 him^G846 out^G385^(G5692) on^G1722 the sabbath^G4521 day^G2250?

⁶ They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.

KJVAnd^G2532 they could^G2480^(G5656) not^G3756 answer^G470 him^G846 again^G470^(G5677) to^G4314 these things^G5023.

⁷ He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,

KJVAnd^G1161 he put forth^G3004^(G5707) a parable^G3850 to^G4314 those which were bidden^G2564^(G5772), when he marked^G1907^(G5723) how^G4459 they chose out^G1586^(G5710) the chief rooms^G4411; saying^G3004^(G5723) unto^G4314 them^G846,

⁸ “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,

KJVWhen^G3752 thou art bidden^G2564^(G5686) of^G5259 any^G5100 man to^G1519 a wedding^G1062, sit^G2625 not^G3361 down^G2625^(G5686) in^G1519 the highest room^G4411; lest^G3379 a more honourable man^G1784 than thou^G4675 be^G5600^(G5753) bidden^G2564^(G5772) of^G5259 him^G846;

⁹ and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.

KJVAnd^G2532 he that bade^G2564^(G5660) thee^G4571 and^G2532 him^G846 come^G2064^(G5631) and say^G2046^(G5692) to thee^G4671, Give^G1325^(G5628) this man^G5129 place^G5117; and^G2532^G5119 thou begin^G756^(G5672) with^G3326 shame^G152 to take^G2722^(G5721) the lowest^G2078 room^G5117.

¹⁰ But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.

KJVBut^G235 when^G3752 thou art bidden^G2564^(G5686), go^G4198^(G5679) and sit down^G377^(G5657) in^G1519 the lowest^G2078 room^G5117; that^G2443 when^G3752 he that bade^G2564^(G5761) thee^G4571 cometh^G2064^(G5632), he may say^G2036^(G5632) unto thee^G4671, Friend^G5384, go up^G4320^(G5628) higher^G511: then^G5119 shalt thou^G4671 have^G2071^(G5704) worship^G1391 in the presence^G1799 of them that sit at meat^G4873^(G5740) with thee^G4671.

¹¹ For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”

KJVFor^G3754 whosoever^G3956 exalteth^G5312^(G5723) himself^G1438 shall be abased^G5013^(G5701); and^G2532 he that humbleth^G5013^(G5723) himself^G1438 shall be exalted^G5312^(G5701).

¹² He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.

KJVThen^G1161 said he^G3004^(G5707) also^G2532 to him that bade^G2564^(G5761) him^G846, When^G3752 thou makest^G4160^(G5725) a dinner^G712 or^G2228 a supper^G1173, call^G5455^(G5720) not^G3361 thy^G4675 friends^G5384, nor^G3366 thy^G4675 brethren^G80, neither^G3366 thy^G4675 kinsmen^G4773, nor^G3366 thy rich^G4145 neighbours^G1069; lest^G3379 they^G846 also^G2532 bid^G479 thee^G4571 again^G479^(G5661), and^G2532 a recompence^G468 be made^G1096^(G5638) thee^G4671.

¹³ But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;

KJVBut^G235 when^G3752 thou makest^G4160^(G5725) a feast^G1403, call^G2564^(G5720) the poor^G4434, the maimed^G376, the lame^G5560, the blind^G5185:

¹⁴ and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”

KJVAnd^G2532 thou shalt be^G2071^(G5704) blessed^G3107; for^G3754 they cannot^G3756^G2192^(G5719) recompense^G467^(G5629) thee^G4671: for^G1063 thou^G4671 shalt be recompensed^G467^(G5701) at^G1722 the resurrection^G386 of the just^G1342.

¹⁵ When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will feast in God’s Kingdom!”

KJVAnd^G1161 when one^G5100 of them that sat at meat with him^G4873^(G5740) heard^G191^(G5660) these things^G5023, he said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Blessed^G3107 is he^G3739 that shall eat^G5315^(G5695) bread^G740 in^G1722 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316.

¹⁶ But he said to him, “A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.

KJVThen^G1161 said he^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, A certain^G5100 man^G444 made^G4160^(G5656) a great^G3173 supper^G1173, and^G2532 bade^G2564^(G5656) many^G4183:

¹⁷ He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, for everything is ready now.’

KJVAnd^G2532 sent^G649^(G5656) his^G846 servant^G1401 at supper^G1173 time^G5610 to say^G2036^(G5629) to them that were bidden^G2564^(G5772), Come^G2064^(G5737); for^G3754 all things^G3956 are^G2076^(G5748) now^G2235 ready^G2092.

¹⁸ They all as one began to make excuses. “The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.’

KJVAnd^G2532 they all^G3956 with^G575 one^G3391 consent began^G756^(G5662) to make excuse^G3868^(G5738). The first^G4413 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, I have bought^G59^(G5656) a piece of ground^G68, and^G2532 I must^G2192^(G5719) needs^G318 go^G1831^(G5629) and^G2532 see^G1492^(G5629) it^G846: I pray^G2065^(G5719) thee^G4571 have^G2192^(G5720) me^G3165 excused^G3868^(G5772).

¹⁹ “Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.’

KJVAnd^G2532 another^G2087 said^G2036^(G5627), I have bought^G59^(G5656) five^G4002 yoke^G2201 of oxen^G1016, and^G2532 I go^G4198^(G5736) to prove^G1381^(G5658) them^G846: I pray^G2065^(G5719) thee^G4571 have^G2192^(G5720) me^G3165 excused^G3868^(G5772).

²⁰ “Another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’

KJVAnd^G2532 another^G2087 said^G2036^(G5627), I have married^G1060^(G5656) a wife^G1135, and^G2532 therefore^G1223^G5124 I cannot^G3756^G1410^(G5736) come^G2064^(G5629).

²¹ “That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.’

KJVSo^G2532 that^G1565 servant^G1401 came^G3854^(G5637), and shewed^G518^(G5656) his^G846 lord^G2962 these things^G5023. Then^G5119 the master of the house^G3617 being angry^G3710^(G5685) said^G2036^(G5627) to his^G846 servant^G1401, Go out^G1831^(G5628) quickly^G5030 into^G1519 the streets^G4113 and^G2532 lanes^G4505 of the city^G4172, and^G2532 bring in^G1521^(G5628) hither^G5602 the poor^G4434, and^G2532 the maimed^G376, and^G2532 the halt^G5560, and^G2532 the blind^G5185.

²² “The servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.’

KJVAnd^G2532 the servant^G1401 said^G2036^(G5627), Lord^G2962, it is done^G1096^(G5754) as^G5613 thou hast commanded^G2004^(G5656), and^G2532 yet^G2089 there is^G2076^(G5748) room^G5117.

²³ “The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

KJVAnd^G2532 the lord^G2962 said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 the servant^G1401, Go out^G1831^(G5628) into^G1519 the highways^G3598 and^G2532 hedges^G5418, and^G2532 compel^G315^(G5657) them to come in^G1525^(G5629), that^G2443 my^G3450 house^G3624 may be filled^G1072^(G5686).

²⁴ For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper. For many are called, but few are chosen.’”

KJVFor^G1063 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 none^G3762 of those^G1565 men^G435 which^G3588 were bidden^G2564^(G5772) shall taste^G1089^(G5695) of my^G3450 supper^G1173.

²⁵ Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them,

KJVAnd^G1161 there went^G4848^(G5711) great^G4183 multitudes^G3793 with him^G846: and^G2532 he turned^G4762^(G5651), and said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846,

²⁶ “If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.

KJVIf any^G1536 man come^G2064^(G5736) to^G4314 me^G3165, and^G2532 hate^G3404^(G5719) not^G3756 his^G1438 father^G3962, and^G2532 mother^G3384, and^G2532 wife^G1135, and^G2532 children^G5043, and^G2532 brethren^G80, and^G2532 sisters^G79, yea^G2089, and^G1161 his own^G1438 life^G5590 also^G2532, he cannot^G3756^G1410^(G5736) be^G1511^(G5750) my^G3450 disciple^G3101.

²⁷ Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple.

KJVAnd^G2532 whosoever^G3748 doth^G941 not^G3756 bear^G941^(G5719) his^G846 cross^G4716, and^G2532 come^G2064^(G5736) after^G3694 me^G3450, cannot^G3756^G1410^(G5736) be^G1511^(G5750) my^G3450 disciple^G3101.

²⁸ For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?

KJVFor^G1063 which^G5101 of^G1537 you^G5216, intending^G2309^(G5723) to build^G3618^(G5658) a tower^G4444, sitteth^G2523 not^G3780 down^G2523^(G5660) first^G4412, and counteth^G5585^(G5719) the cost^G1160, whether^G1487 he have^G2192^(G5719) sufficient to^G4314 finish^G535 it?

²⁹ Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,

KJVLest^G3363 haply^G3379, after he^G846 hath laid^G5087^(G5631) the foundation^G2310, and^G2532 is^G2480 not^G3361 able^G2480^(G5723) to finish^G1615^(G5658) it, all^G3956 that behold^G2334^(G5723) it begin^G756^(G5672) to mock^G1702^(G5721) him^G846,

³⁰ saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’

KJVSaying^G3004^(G5723), This^G3754^G3778 man^G444 began^G756^(G5662) to build^G3618^(G5721), and^G2532 was^G2480 not^G3756 able^G2480^(G5656) to finish^G1615^(G5658).

³¹ Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

KJVOr^G2228 what^G5101 king^G935, going^G4198^(G5740) to make^G4820^(G5629) war^G4171 against^G1519 another^G2087 king^G935, sitteth^G2523 not^G3780 down^G2523^(G5660) first^G4412, and consulteth^G1011^(G5736) whether^G1487 he be^G2076^(G5748) able^G1415 with^G1722 ten^G1176 thousand^G5505 to meet^G528^(G5658) him that cometh^G2064^(G5740) against^G1909 him^G846 with^G3326 twenty^G1501 thousand^G5505?

³² Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks for conditions of peace.

KJVOr else^G1490, while the other^G846 is^G5607^(G5752) yet^G2089 a great way off^G4206, he sendeth^G649^(G5660) an ambassage^G4242, and desireth^G2065^(G5719) conditions^G4314 of peace^G1515.

³³ So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.

KJVSo^G3779 likewise^G3767, whosoever^G3956 he be of^G1537 you^G5216 that^G3739 forsaketh^G657^(G5731) not^G3756 all^G3956 that he hath^G5224^(G5723)^G1438, he cannot^G3756^G1410^(G5736) be^G1511^(G5750) my^G3450 disciple^G3101.

³⁴ “Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?

KJVSalt^G217 is good^G2570: but^G1161 if^G1437 the salt^G217 have lost his savour^G3471^(G5686), wherewith^G1722^G5101 shall it be seasoned^G741^(G5701)?

³⁵ It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

KJVIt is^G2076^(G5748) neither^G3777 fit^G2111 for^G1519 the land^G1093, nor yet^G3777 for^G1519 the dunghill^G2874; but men cast^G906^(G5719) it^G846 out^G1854. He that hath^G2192^(G5723) ears^G3775 to hear^G191^(G5721), let him hear^G191^(G5720).

¹Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

KJV^G1161 There were present^G3918^(G5713) at^G1722 that season^G846^G2540 some^G5100 that told^G518^(G5723) him^G846 of^G4012 the Galilaeans^G1057, whose^G3739 blood^G129 Pilate^G4091 had mingled^G3396^(G5656) with^G3326 their^G846 sacrifices^G2378.

² Jesus answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things?

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answering^G611^(G5679) said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Suppose ye^G1380^(G5719) that^G3754 these^G3778 Galilaeans^G1057 were^G1096^(G5633) sinners^G268 above^G3844 all^G3956 the Galilaeans^G1057, because^G3754 they suffered^G3958^(G5754) such things^G5108?

³ I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.

KJVI tell^G3004^(G5719) you^G5213, Nay^G3780: but^G235, except^G3362 ye repent^G3340^(G5725), ye shall^G622 all^G3956 likewise^G5615 perish^G622^(G5698).

⁴ Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them—do you think that they were worse offenders than all the men who dwell in Jerusalem?

KJVOr^G2228 those^G1565 eighteen^G1176^G2532^G3638, upon^G1909 whom^G3739 the tower^G4444 in^G1722 Siloam^G4611 fell^G4098^(G5627), and^G2532 slew^G615^(G5656) them^G846, think ye^G1380^(G5719) that^G3754 they^G3778 were^G1096^(G5633) sinners^G3781 above^G3844 all^G3956 men^G444 that dwelt^G2730^(G5723) in^G1722 Jerusalem^G2419?

⁵ I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.”

KJVI tell^G3004^(G5719) you^G5213, Nay^G3780: but^G235, except^G3362 ye repent^G3340^(G5725), ye shall^G622 all^G3956 likewise^G3668 perish^G622^(G5698).

⁶ 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.

KJVHe spake^G3004^(G5707) also^G1161 this^G5026 parable^G3850; A certain^G5100 man had^G2192^(G5707) a fig tree^G4808 planted^G5452^(G5772) in^G1722 his^G846 vineyard^G290; and^G2532 he came^G2064^(G5627) and sought^G2212^(G5723) fruit^G2590 thereon^G1722^G846, and^G2532 found^G2147^(G5627) none^G3756.

⁷ He said to the vine dresser, ‘Behold, 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?’

KJVThen^G1161 said he^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 the dresser of his vineyard^G289, Behold^G2400^(G5628), these three^G5140 years^G2094 I come^G2064^(G5736) seeking^G2212^(G5723) fruit^G2590 on^G1722 this^G5026 fig tree^G4808, and^G2532 find^G2147^(G5719) none^G3756: cut^G1581 it^G846 down^G1581^(G5657); why^G2444^G2532 cumbereth^G2673^(G5719) it^G846 the ground^G1093?

⁸ He answered, ‘Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

KJVAnd^G1161 he answering^G611^(G5679) said^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962, let^G863 it^G846 alone^G863^(G5628) this^G5124 year^G2094 also^G2532, till^G2193^G3755 I shall dig^G4626^(G5661) about^G4012 it^G846, and^G2532 dung^G906^(G5632)^G2874 it:

⁹ If it bears fruit, fine; but if not, after that, you can cut it down.’”

KJVAnd if^G2579^G3303 it bear^G4160^(G5661) fruit^G2590, well: and if not^G1490, then after that^G1519^G3195^(G5723) thou shalt cut^G1581 it^G846 down^G1581^(G5692).

¹⁰ He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.

KJVAnd^G1161 he was^G2258^(G5713) teaching^G1321^(G5723) in^G1722 one^G3391 of the synagogues^G4864 on^G1722 the sabbath^G4521.

¹¹ Behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years. She was bent over and could in no way straighten herself up.

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), there was^G2258^(G5713) a woman^G1135 which had^G2192^(G5723) a spirit^G4151 of infirmity^G769 eighteen^G1176^G2532^G3638 years^G2094, and^G2532 was^G2258^(G5713) bowed together^G4794^(G5723), and^G2532 could^G1410^(G5740) in^G1519 no^G3361 wise^G3838 lift up^G352^(G5658) herself.

¹² When Jesus saw her, he called her and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your infirmity.”

KJVAnd^G1161 when Jesus^G2424 saw^G1492^(G5631) her^G846, he called^G4377^(G5656) her to him, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto her^G846, Woman^G1135, thou art loosed^G630^(G5769) from thine^G4675 infirmity^G769.

¹³ He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight and glorified God.

KJVAnd^G2532 he laid^G2007 his hands^G5495 on^G2007^(G5656) her^G846: and^G2532 immediately^G3916 she was made straight^G461^(G5681), and^G2532 glorified^G1392^(G5707) God^G2316.

¹⁴ The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the multitude, “There are six days in which men ought to work. Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day!”

KJVAnd^G1161 the ruler of the synagogue^G752 answered^G611^(G5679) with indignation^G23^(G5723), because^G3754 that Jesus^G2424 had healed^G2323^(G5656) on the sabbath^G4521 day, and said^G3004^(G5707) unto the people^G3793, There are^G1526^(G5748) six^G1803 days^G2250 in^G1722 which^G3739 men ought^G1163^(G5748) to work^G2038^(G5738): in^G1722 them^G5025 therefore^G3767 come^G2064^(G5740) and be healed^G2323^(G5744), and^G2532 not^G3361 on the sabbath^G4521 day^G2250.

¹⁵ Therefore the Lord answered him, “You hypocrites! Doesn’t each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath and lead him away to water?

KJVThe Lord^G2962 then^G3767 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), Thou hypocrite^G5273, doth^G3089 not^G3756 each one^G1538 of you^G5216 on the sabbath^G4521 loose^G3089^(G5719) his^G846 ox^G1016 or^G2228 his ass^G3688 from^G575 the stall^G5336, and^G2532 lead him away^G520^(G5631) to watering^G4222^(G5719)?

¹⁶ Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan had bound eighteen long years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?”

KJVAnd^G1161 ought^G1163^(G5713) not^G3756 this woman^G5026, being^G5607^(G5752) a daughter^G2364 of Abraham^G11, whom^G3739 Satan^G4567 hath bound^G1210^(G5656), lo^G2400^(G5628), these eighteen^G1176^G2532^G3638 years^G2094, be loosed^G3089^(G5683) from^G575 this^G5127 bond^G1199 on the sabbath^G4521 day^G2250?

¹⁷ As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed; and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

KJVAnd^G2532 when he^G846 had said^G3004^(G5723) these things^G5023, all^G3956 his^G846 adversaries^G480^(G5740) were ashamed^G2617^(G5712): and^G2532 all^G3956 the people^G3793 rejoiced^G5463^(G5707) for^G1909 all^G3956 the glorious things^G1741 that were done^G1096^(G5740) by^G5259 him^G846.

¹⁸ He said, “What is God’s Kingdom like? To what shall I compare it?

KJVThen^G1161 said he^G3004^(G5707), Unto what^G5101 is^G2076^(G5748) the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 like^G3664? and^G2532 whereunto^G5101 shall I resemble^G3666^(G5692) it^G846?

¹⁹ It is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his own garden. It grew and became a large tree, and the birds of the sky live in its branches.”

KJVIt is^G2076^(G5748) like^G3664 a grain^G2848 of mustard seed^G4615, which^G3739 a man^G444 took^G2983^(G5631), and cast^G906^(G5627) into^G1519 his^G1438 garden^G2779; and^G2532 it grew^G837^(G5656), and^G2532 waxed^G1096^(G5633)^G1519 a great^G3173 tree^G1186; and^G2532 the fowls^G4071 of the air^G3772 lodged^G2681^(G5656) in^G1722 the branches^G2798 of it^G846.

²⁰ Again he said, “To what shall I compare God’s Kingdom?

KJVAnd^G2532 again^G3825 he said^G2036^(G5627), Whereunto^G5101 shall I liken^G3666^(G5692) the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316?

²¹ It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened.”

KJVIt is^G2076^(G5748) like^G3664 leaven^G2219, which^G3739 a woman^G1135 took^G2983^(G5631) and hid^G1470^(G5656) in^G1519 three^G5140 measures^G4568 of meal^G224, till^G2193^G3739 the whole^G3650 was leavened^G2220^(G5681).

²² He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.

KJVAnd^G2532 he went^G1279^(G5711) through^G2596 the cities^G4172 and^G2532 villages^G2968, teaching^G1321^(G5723), and^G2532 journeying^G4160^(G5734)^G4197 toward^G1519 Jerusalem^G2419.

²³ One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,

KJVThen^G1161 said^G2036^(G5627) one^G5100 unto^G4314 him^G846, Lord^G2962, are there few^G1487^G3641 that be saved^G4982^(G5746)? And^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846,

²⁴ “Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in and will not be able.

KJVStrive^G75^(G5737) to enter in^G1525^(G5629) at^G1223 the strait^G4728 gate^G4439: for^G3754 many^G4183, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, will seek^G2212^(G5692) to enter in^G1525^(G5629), and^G2532 shall^G2480 not^G3756 be able^G2480^(G5692).

²⁵ 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, Lord, open to us!’ then he will answer and tell you, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from.’

KJVWhen once^G575^G3739^G302 the master of the house^G3617 is risen up^G1453^(G5686), and^G2532 hath shut^G608^(G5661) to the door^G2374, and^G2532 ye begin^G756^(G5672) to stand^G2476^(G5760) without^G1854, and^G2532 to knock^G2925^(G5721) at the door^G2374, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, Lord^G2962, open^G455^(G5657) unto us^G2254; and^G2532 he shall answer^G611^(G5679) and say^G2046^(G5692) unto you^G5213, I know^G1492^(G5758) you^G5209 not^G3756 whence^G4159 ye are^G2075^(G5748):

²⁶ Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’

KJVThen^G5119 shall ye begin^G756^(G5698) to say^G3004^(G5721), We have eaten^G5315^(G5627) and^G2532 drunk^G4095^(G5627) in thy^G4675 presence^G1799, and^G2532 thou hast taught^G1321^(G5656) in^G1722 our^G2257 streets^G4113.

²⁷ He will say, ‘I tell you, I don’t know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.’

KJVBut^G2532 he shall say^G2046^(G5692), I tell^G3004^(G5719) you^G5213, I know^G1492^(G5758) you^G5209 not^G3756 whence^G4159 ye are^G2075^(G5748); depart^G868^(G5628) from^G575 me^G1700, all^G3956 ye workers^G2040 of iniquity^G93.

²⁸ There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in God’s Kingdom, and yourselves being thrown outside.

KJVThere^G1563 shall be^G2071^(G5704) weeping^G2805 and^G2532 gnashing^G1030 of teeth^G3599, when^G3752 ye shall see^G3700^(G5667) Abraham^G11, and^G2532 Isaac^G2464, and^G2532 Jacob^G2384, and^G2532 all^G3956 the prophets^G4396, in^G1722 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316, and^G1161 you^G5209 yourselves thrust^G1544^(G5746) out^G1854.

²⁹ They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in God’s Kingdom.

KJVAnd^G2532 they shall come^G2240^(G5692) from^G575 the east^G395, and^G2532 from the west^G1424, and^G2532 from^G575 the north^G1005, and^G2532 from the south^G3558, and^G2532 shall sit down^G347^(G5701) in^G1722 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316.

³⁰ Behold, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last.”

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), there are^G1526^(G5748) last^G2078 which^G3739 shall be^G2071^(G5704) first^G4413, and^G2532 there are^G1526^(G5748) first^G4413 which^G3739 shall be^G2071^(G5704) last^G2078.

³¹ On that same day, some Pharisees came, saying to him, “Get out of here and go away, for Herod wants to kill you.”

KJVThe same^G1722^G846 day^G2250 there came^G4334^(G5656) certain^G5100 of the Pharisees^G5330, saying^G3004^(G5723) unto him^G846, Get thee out^G1831^(G5628), and^G2532 depart^G4198^(G5737) hence^G1782: for^G3754 Herod^G2264 will^G2309^(G5719) kill^G615^(G5658) thee^G4571.

³² He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Go ye^G4198^(G5679), and tell^G2036^(G5628) that^G5026 fox^G258, Behold^G2400^(G5628), I cast out^G1544^(G5719) devils^G1140, and^G2532 I do^G2005^(G5719) cures^G2392 to day^G4594 and^G2532 to morrow^G839, and^G2532 the third^G5154 day I shall be perfected^G5048^(G5743).

³³ Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can’t be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.’

KJVNevertheless^G4133 I^G3165 must^G1163^(G5748) walk^G4198^(G5738) to day^G4594, and^G2532 to morrow^G839, and^G2532 the day following^G2192^(G5746): for^G3754 it cannot be^G3756^G1735^(G5736) that a prophet^G4396 perish^G622^(G5641) out of^G1854 Jerusalem^G2419.

³⁴ “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who 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!

KJVO Jerusalem^G2419, Jerusalem^G2419, which^G3588 killest^G615^(G5723) the prophets^G4396, and^G2532 stonest^G3036^(G5723) them that are sent^G649^(G5772) unto^G4314 thee^G846; how often^G4212 would^G2309^(G5656) I have gathered^G1996 thy^G4675 children^G5043 together^G1996^(G5658), as^G3739^G5158 a hen^G3733 doth gather her^G1438 brood^G3555 under^G5259 her wings^G4420, and^G2532 ye would^G2309^(G5656) not^G3756!

³⁵ Behold, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!’”

KJVBehold^G2400^(G5628), your^G5216 house^G3624 is left^G863^(G5743) unto you^G5213 desolate^G2048: and^G1161 verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213,^G3754 Ye shall^G1492 not^G3364 see^G1492^(G5632) me^G3165, until^G2193^G302 the time come^G2240^(G5661) when^G3753 ye shall say^G2036^(G5632), Blessed^G2127^(G5772) is he that cometh^G2064^(G5740) in^G1722 the name^G3686 of the Lord^G2962.
