LUKE 13:1-12

¹Now there were some present at that very season which told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

²And he answered and said unto them, Think ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they have suffered these things?

³I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all in like manner perish.

⁴Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were offenders above all the men that dwell in Jerusalem?

⁵I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

⁶And he spake this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none.

⁷And he said unto the vinedresser, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it also cumber the ground?

⁸And he answering saith unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:

⁹and if it bear fruit thenceforth, well; but if not, thou shalt cut it down.

¹⁰And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath day.

¹¹And behold, a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed together, and could in no wise lift herself up.

¹²And when Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
