1And there were present, at that very time, some that told him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
1Aderant autem quidam ipso in tempore, nuntiantes illi de Galilæis, quorum sanguinem Pilatus miscuit cum sacrificiis eorum.
2And he answering, said to them: Think you that these Galileans were sinners above all the men of Galilee, because they suffered such things?
2Et respondens dixit illis: Putatis quod hi Galilæi præ omnibus Galilæis peccatores fuerint, quia talia passi sunt?
3No, I say to you: but unless you shall do penance, you shall all likewise perish.
3Non, dico vobis: sed nisi pœnitentiam habueritis, omnes similiter peribitis.
4Or those eighteen upon whom the tower fell in Siloe, and slew them: think you, that they also were debtors above all the men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
4Sicut illi decem et octo, supra quos cecidit turris in Siloë, et occidit eos: putatis quia et ipsi debitores fuerint præter omnes homines habitantes in Jerusalem?
5No, I say to you; but except you do penance, you shall all likewise perish.
5Non, dico vobis: sed si pœnitentiam non egeritis, omnes similiter peribitis.
6He spoke also this parable: A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
6Dicebat autem et hanc similitudinem: Arborem fici habebat quidam plantatam in vinea sua, et venit quærens fructum in illa, et non invenit.
7And he said to the dresser of the vineyard: Behold, for these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it done therefore: why cumbereth it the ground?
7Dixit autem ad cultorem vineæ: Ecce anni tres sunt ex quo venio quærens fructum in ficulnea hac, et non invenio: succide ergo illam: ut quid etiam terram occupat?
8But he answering, said to him: Lord, let it alone this year also, until I dig about it, and dung it.
8At ille respondens, dicit illi: Domine dimitte illam et hoc anno, usque dum fodiam circa illam, et mittam stercora,
9And if happily it bear fruit: but if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.
9et siquidem fecerit fructum: sin autem, in futurum succides eam.
10And he was teaching in their synagogue on their sabbath.
10Erat autem docens in synagoga eorum sabbatis.
11And behold there was a woman, who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years: and she was bowed together, neither could she look upwards at all.
11Et ecce mulier, quæ habebat spiritum infirmitatis annis decem et octo: et erat inclinata, nec omnino poterat sursum respicere.
12Whom when Jesus saw, he called her unto him, and said to her: Woman, thou art delivered from thy infirmity.
12Quam cum videret Jesus, vocavit eam ad se, et ait illi: Mulier, dimissa es ab infirmitate tua.
13And he laid his hands upon her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
13Et imposuit illi manus, et confestim erecta est, et glorificabat Deum.
14And the ruler of the synagogue (being angry that Jesus had healed on the sabbath) answering, said to the multitude: Six days there are wherein you ought to work. In them therefore come, and be healed; and not on the sabbath day.
14Respondens autem archisynagogus, indignans quia sabbato curasset Jesus, dicebat turbæ: Sex dies sunt in quibus oportet operari: in his ergo venite, et curamini, et non in die sabbati.
15And the Lord answering him, said: Ye hypocrites, doth not every one of you, on the sabbath day, loose his ox or his ass from the manger, and lead them to water?
15Respondens autem ad illum Dominus, dixit: Hypocritæ, unusquisque vestrum sabbato non solvit bovem suum, aut asinum a præsepio, et ducit adaquare?
16And ought not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
16Hanc autem filiam Abrahæ, quam alligavit Satanas, ecce decem et octo annis, non oportuit solvi a vinculo isto die sabbati?
17And when he said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the things that were gloriously done by him.
17Et cum hæc diceret, erubescebant omnes adversarii ejus: et omnis populus gaudebat in universis, quæ gloriose fiebant ab eo.
18He said therefore: To what is the kingdom of God like, and whereunto shall I resemble it?
18Dicebat ergo: Cui simile est regnum Dei, et cui simile æstimabo illud?
19It is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his garden, and it grew and became a great tree, and the birds of the air lodged in the branches thereof.
19Simile est grano sinapis, quod acceptum homo misit in hortum suum, et crevit, et factum est in arborem magnam: et volucres cæli requieverunt in ramis ejus.
20And again he said: Whereunto shall I esteem the kingdom of God to be like?
20Et iterum dixit: Cui simile æstimabo regnum Dei?
21It is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
21Simile est fermento, quod acceptum mulier abscondit in farinæ sata tria, donec fermentaretur totum.
22And he went through the cities and towns teaching, and making his journey to Jerusalem.
22Et ibat per civitates et castella, docens, et iter faciens in Jerusalem.
23And a certain man said to him: Lord, are they few that are saved? But he said to them:
23Ait autem illi quidam: Domine, si pauci sunt, qui salvantur? Ipse autem dixit ad illos:
24Strive to enter by the narrow gate; for many, I say to you, shall seek to enter, and shall not be able.
24Contendite intrare per angustam portam: quia multi, dico vobis, quærent intrare, et non poterunt.
25But when the master of the house shall be gone in, and shall shut the door, you shall begin to stand without, and knock at the door, saying: Lord, open to us. And he answering, shall say to you: I know you not, whence you are.
25Cum autem intraverit paterfamilias, et clauserit ostium, incipietis foris stare, et pulsare ostium, dicentes: Domine, aperi nobis: et respondens dicet vobis: Nescio vos unde sitis:
26Then you shall begin to say: We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
26tunc incipietis dicere: Manducavimus coram te, et bibimus, et in plateis nostris docuisti.
27And he shall say to you: I know you not, whence you are: depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
27Et dicet vobis: Nescio vos unde sitis: discedite a me omnes operarii iniquitatis.
28There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.
28Ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium: cum videritis Abraham, et Isaac, et Jacob, et omnes prophetas in regno Dei, vos autem expelli foras.
29And there shall come from the east and the west, and the north and the south; and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
29Et venient ab oriente, et occidente, et aquilone, et austro, et accumbent in regno Dei.
30And behold, they are last that shall be first; and they are first that shall be last.
30Et ecce sunt novissimi qui erunt primi, et sunt primi qui erunt novissimi.
31The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee.
31In ipsa die accesserunt quidam pharisæorum, dicentes illi: Exi, et vade hinc: quia Herodes vult te occidere.
32And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I am consummated.
32Et ait illis: Ite, et dicite vulpi illi: Ecce ejicio dæmonia, et sanitates perficio hodie, et cras, et tertia die consummor.
33Nevertheless I must walk today and tomorrow, and the day following, because it cannot be that a prophet perish, out of Jerusalem.
33Verumtamen oportet me hodie et cras et sequenti die ambulare: quia non capit prophetam perire extra Jerusalem.
34Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent to thee, how often would I have gathered thy children as the bird doth her brood under her wings, and thou wouldest not?
34Jerusalem, Jerusalem, quæ occidis prophetas, et lapidas eos qui mittuntur ad te, quoties volui congregare filios tuos quemadmodum avis nidum suum sub pennis, et noluisti?
35Behold your house shall be left to you desolate. And I say to you, that you shall not see me till the time come, when you shall say: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
35Ecce relinquetur vobis domus vestra deserta. Dico autem vobis, quia non videbitis me donec veniat cum dicetis: Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini.
