Luke 13 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Luk 13:1And there were present certain at that time, telling him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate did mingle with their sacrifices;
Luk 13:2and Jesus answering said to them, 'Think ye that these Galileans became sinners beyond all the Galileans, because they have suffered such things?
Luk 13:3No -- I say to you, but, if ye may not reform, all ye even so shall perish.
Luk 13:4'Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; think ye that these became debtors beyond all men who are dwelling in Jerusalem?
Luk 13:5No -- I say to you, but, if ye may not reform, all ye in like manner shall perish.'
Luk 13:6And he spake this simile: 'A certain one had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit in it, and he did not find;
Luk 13:7and he said unto the vine-dresser, Lo, three years I come seeking fruit in this fig-tree, and do not find, cut it off, why also the ground doth it render useless?
Luk 13:8'And he answering saith to him, Sir, suffer it also this year, till that I may dig about it, and cast in dung;
Luk 13:9and if indeed it may bear fruit --; and if not so, thereafter thou shalt cut it off.'

Healing on the Sabbath

Luk 13:10And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath,
Luk 13:11and lo, there was a woman having a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bowed together, and not able to bend back at all,
Luk 13:12and Jesus having seen her, did call her near, and said to her, 'Woman, thou hast been loosed from thy infirmity;'
Luk 13:13and he laid on her his hands, and presently she was set upright, and was glorifying God.
Luk 13:14And the chief of the synagogue answering -- much displeased that on the sabbath Jesus healed -- said to the multitude, 'Six days there are in which it behoveth us to be working; in these, then, coming, be healed, and not on the sabbath-day.'
Luk 13:15Then the Lord answered him and said, 'Hypocrite, doth not each of you on the sabbath loose his ox or ass from the stall, and having led away, doth water it?
Luk 13:16and this one, being a daughter of Abraham, whom the Adversary bound, lo, eighteen years, did it not behove to be loosed from this bond on the sabbath-day?'
Luk 13:17And he saying these things, all who were opposed to him were being ashamed, and all the multitude were rejoicing over all the glorious things that are being done by him.

Parables of Mustard Seed and Leaven

Luk 13:18And he said, 'To what is the reign of God like? and to what shall I liken it?
Luk 13:19It is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, did cast into his garden, and it increased, and came to a great tree, and the fowls of the heavens did rest in its branches.'
Luk 13:20And again he said, 'To what shall I liken the reign of God?
Luk 13:21It is like leaven, which a woman, having taken, did hide in three measures of meal, till that all was leavened.'

Teaching in the Villages

(Mat 7:13, 14 )
Luk 13:22And he was going through cities and villages, teaching, and making progress toward Jerusalem;
Luk 13:23and a certain one said to him, 'Sir, are those saved few?' and he said unto them,
Luk 13:24'Be striving to go in through the straight gate, because many, I say to you, will seek to go in, and shall not be able;
Luk 13:25from the time the master of the house may have risen up, and may have shut the door, and ye may begin without to stand, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, lord, open to us, and he answering shall say to you, I have not known you whence ye are,
Luk 13:26then ye may begin to say, We did eat before thee, and did drink, and in our broad places thou didst teach;
Luk 13:27and he shall say, I say to you, I have not known you whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of the unrighteousness.
Luk 13:28'There shall be there the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth, when ye may see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the reign of God, and yourselves being cast out without;
Luk 13:29and they shall come from east and west, and from north and south, and shall recline in the reign of God,
Luk 13:30and lo, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.'
Luk 13:31On that day there came near certain Pharisees, saying to him, 'Go forth, and be going on hence, for Herod doth wish to kill thee;'
Luk 13:32and he said to them, 'Having gone, say to this fox, Lo, I cast forth demons, and perfect cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third day I am being perfected;
Luk 13:33but it behoveth me to-day, and to-morrow, and the day following, to go on, because it is not possible for a prophet to perish out of Jerusalem.
Luk 13:34'Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that is killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto her, how often did I will to gather together thy children, as a hen her brood under the wings, and ye did not will.
Luk 13:35'Lo, your house is being left to you desolate, and verily I say to you -- ye may not see me, till it may come, when ye may say, Blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord.'
