Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
1Aderant autem quidam ipso in tempore, nuntiantes illi de Galilæis, quorum sanguinem Pilatus miscuit cum sacrificiis eorum.
2Jesus answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things?
2Et respondens dixit illis: Putatis quod hi Galilæi præ omnibus Galilæis peccatores fuerint, quia talia passi sunt?
3I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
3Non, dico vobis: sed nisi pœnitentiam habueritis, omnes similiter peribitis.
4Or 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?
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?
5I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.”
5Non, dico vobis: sed si pœnitentiam non egeritis, omnes similiter peribitis.
6He spoke 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.
7He 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?’
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?
8He answered, ‘Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.
8At ille respondens, dicit illi: Domine dimitte illam et hoc anno, usque dum fodiam circa illam, et mittam stercora,
9If it bears fruit, fine; but if not, after that, you can cut it down.’”
9et siquidem fecerit fructum: sin autem, in futurum succides eam.
10He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
10Erat autem docens in synagoga eorum sabbatis.
11Behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years. She was bent over and could in no way straighten herself up.
11Et ecce mulier, quæ habebat spiritum infirmitatis annis decem et octo: et erat inclinata, nec omnino poterat sursum respicere.
12When Jesus saw her, he called her and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your infirmity.”
12Quam cum videret Jesus, vocavit eam ad se, et ait illi: Mulier, dimissa es ab infirmitate tua.
13He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight and glorified God.
13Et imposuit illi manus, et confestim erecta est, et glorificabat Deum.
14The 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!”
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.
15Therefore 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?
15Respondens autem ad illum Dominus, dixit: Hypocritæ, unusquisque vestrum sabbato non solvit bovem suum, aut asinum a præsepio, et ducit adaquare?
16Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan had bound eighteen long years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?”
16Hanc autem filiam Abrahæ, quam alligavit Satanas, ecce decem et octo annis, non oportuit solvi a vinculo isto die sabbati?
17As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed; and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
17Et cum hæc diceret, erubescebant omnes adversarii ejus: et omnis populus gaudebat in universis, quæ gloriose fiebant ab eo.
18He said, “What is God’s Kingdom like? To what shall I compare it?
18Dicebat ergo: Cui simile est regnum Dei, et cui simile æstimabo illud?
19It 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.”
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.
20Again he said, “To what shall I compare God’s Kingdom?
20Et iterum dixit: Cui simile æstimabo regnum Dei?
21It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened.”
21Simile est fermento, quod acceptum mulier abscondit in farinæ sata tria, donec fermentaretur totum.
22He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.
22Et ibat per civitates et castella, docens, et iter faciens in Jerusalem.
23One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,
23Ait autem illi quidam: Domine, si pauci sunt, qui salvantur? Ipse autem dixit ad illos:
24“Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in and will not be able.
24Contendite intrare per angustam portam: quia multi, dico vobis, quærent intrare, et non poterunt.
25When 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.’
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 will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’
26tunc incipietis dicere: Manducavimus coram te, et bibimus, et in plateis nostris docuisti.
27He will say, ‘I tell you, I don’t know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.’
27Et dicet vobis: Nescio vos unde sitis: discedite a me omnes operarii iniquitatis.
28There 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.
28Ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium: cum videritis Abraham, et Isaac, et Jacob, et omnes prophetas in regno Dei, vos autem expelli foras.
29They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in God’s Kingdom.
29Et venient ab oriente, et occidente, et aquilone, et austro, et accumbent in regno Dei.
30Behold, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last.”
30Et ecce sunt novissimi qui erunt primi, et sunt primi qui erunt novissimi.
31On that same day, some Pharisees came, saying to him, “Get out of here and go away, for Herod wants to kill you.”
31In ipsa die accesserunt quidam pharisæorum, dicentes illi: Exi, et vade hinc: quia Herodes vult te occidere.
32He 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.
32Et ait illis: Ite, et dicite vulpi illi: Ecce ejicio dæmonia, et sanitates perficio hodie, et cras, et tertia die consummor.
33Nevertheless 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.’
33Verumtamen oportet me hodie et cras et sequenti die ambulare: quia non capit prophetam perire extra Jerusalem.
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!
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 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!’”
35Ecce relinquetur vobis domus vestra deserta. Dico autem vobis, quia non videbitis me donec veniat cum dicetis: Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini.
