Luke 13:14-31

¹⁴And the prince of the synagogue answered, having disdain for Jesus had healed in the sabbath; and he said to the people, There be six days, in which it behooveth to work; therefore come ye in these, and be ye healed, and not in the day of sabbath. (And the leader of the synagogue spoke, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath; and he said to the people, There be six days, on which it behooveth to work; and so come here on them, and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.)

¹⁵But the Lord answered to him, and said, Hypocrite, whether each of you untieth not in (or on) the sabbath his ox, or ass, from the cratch (or from the feed-trough), and leadeth (it) to water? +Forsooth the Lord answering to him said, Hypocrite, whether each of you in the sabbath untieth not his ox, or his ass, from the cratch, or the stall, and leadeth (it) to water?

¹⁶Behooved it not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo! eighteen years, to be unbound of this bond in the day of sabbath? (or on the Sabbath day?)

¹⁷And when he said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed, and all the people joyed in all (the) things, that were gloriously done of him (or that were wonderfully done by him).

¹⁸Therefore he said, To what thing is the kingdom of God like? and to what thing shall I guess it to be like?

¹⁹It is like to a corn of sinapi, which a man took, and cast into his garden or into his yard; and it waxed, and was made into a great tree, and fowls of the air rested in the branches thereof. (It is like a kernel, or a grain, of mustard seed, which a man took, and threw into his garden; and it grew, and was made into a great tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.)

²⁰And again he said, To what thing shall I guess the kingdom of God like?

²¹It is like to sourdough that a woman took, and hid it in three measures of meal, till all were soured. (It is like the yeast, or the leaven, which a woman took, and put it in three measures of meal, until all of it was leavened.)

²²And he went by cities and castles (or towns and villages), teaching and making journey into Jerusalem.

²³And a man said to him, Lord, if there be few, that be saved? And he said to them,

²⁴Strive ye to enter by the strait gate (or Strive to enter by the narrow gate); for I say to you, many seek to enter in, and they shall not be able (to).

²⁵For when the husbandman is entered, and the door is closed, or For when the husbandman hath entered, and closed the door, ye shall begin to stand withoutforth, and knock at the door, and say, Lord, open to us. And he shall answer, and say to you, I know you not, of whence ye be.

²⁶Then ye shall begin to say, We have eaten before thee and drunk or We have eaten and drunk before thee, and in our streets thou hast taught.

²⁷And he shall say to you, I know you not, of whence ye be; go away from me, all ye workers of wickedness.

²⁸There shall be weeping and grinding of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God; and you to be put out.

²⁹And they shall come from the east and the west, and from the north and the south, and shall sit at the meat in the realm of God. (And they shall come from the east and the west, and from the north and the south, and shall sit down for the meal in the Kingdom of God.)

³⁰And lo! they that were the first, be the last; and they that were the last, be the first.

³¹In that day some of the Pharisees came nigh, and said to him, Go out, and go from hence, for Herod will slay thee.
