He said to them "be where"! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life does not consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.

He spoke a parable to them saying, The ground of a certain rich man produced "abundantly". He reasoned within himself saying, What will I do, because I do not have room to "store my crops". He said, This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. I will tell my soul, Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry. But God said to him, You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared: Whose will they be? So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

He said to his disciples, Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they do not sow, they do not reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds! Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height. If then you are not able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest? Consider the lilies, how they grow. They do not toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you even Solomon in all his glory was "not arrayed like one" of these. But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe "yew", O you of little faith. Do not seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious, For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things. But seek God's Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you. Do not be afraid little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Let your loins be girded and your lamps burning. Be like "men watching" for their Lord when he returns from the wedding feast; that when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him. "Blessed" are those servants whom the Lord will find "watching" when he comes. Most certainly I tell you that "he will dress" himself, make them recline, and will come and "serve them". They will be "blessed" if he comes in the second or third watch and "finds them so". But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not allowed his house to be "broken into". Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you do not expect him.

Peter said to him, Lord, are you telling this parable to "us", or to everybody?

The Lord said, "Whoo-then" is the faithful and wise steward whom his Lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times. Blessed is that servant whom his Lord will find doing so when he comes. Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has. But if that servant says in his heart, My Lord delays his coming, and begins to beat the "men-servants" and the "maid-servants", and to eat and drink and to be drunken, then the Lord of that servant will come in a day when he is not expecting him, and in an hour that he does not "know", and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful. That servant who knew his Lord’s will, and did not prepare nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes, but he who did not know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.

I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled. But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am before it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth"? I "tellyou no", but rather division. For from now on there will be five in one house, divided three against two, and two against three. They will be divided, father against son, and son "againstfather", mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law "against-her mother" "inlaw".

He said to the multitudes also, When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say A shower is coming, and so it happens. When a south wind blows, you say There will be a scorching heat, and it happens. "Yew" hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you do not interpret this time? Why do you not judge for yourselves what is right. For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. I tell you, you will by no means get out of there before you have paid the very last penny.

Now there were some present at the same time, who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered them, Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered such things"? I "tellyou no", but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way. Or those "eight-teen" 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"? I "tellyou no", but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.

He spoke this parable. A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. He 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? He answered, Lord, leave it alone this year also while I dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit fine; but if not, "afterthat", you can cut it down.

He was Teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day. Behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years. She was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up. When Jesus saw her, he called her and said to her, Woman, you are freed from your infirmity.

He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight and glorified God. The 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!

Therefore the Lord answered him, You hypocrites! Does each one of you not free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and "leed" him away to water"? Ought not this woman being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound eighteen long years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day"?

As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

He went on his way through cities and villages, Teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem. One said to him, Lord, are they few who are saved?

He said to them, Strive to "enter in" by the narrow door, for many I tell you will seek to "enter in", and will not be able. When 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 do not know you or where you "come" from. Then you will begin to say, We "eight" and drank in your presence, and you Taught in our streets. He will say, I tell you, I do not know where you "come" from. "Depart from me" all you workers of iniquity. There 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. They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in God's Kingdom. Behold, there are some who are "last" who will be "first", and there are some who are first, who will be last.

On that same day, some Pharisees came saying to him, "Get-out-of here" and go "aweigh"; for Herod wants to "kill you".  

On that same day, some Pharisees came saying to him, "Get-out-of here" and "go-away" for Herod wants to "kill you".  

He said to them, Go and "tellthat fox", Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures "today and tomorrow"; "and-the" "third-day" I complete my mission. Nevertheless, I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day; for it cannot be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.

Jerusalem: Jerusalem: you who kills the prophets and stones those who are "sent-tooher"! How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings and you refused! Behold, your house is left to you "desolate". I tell you, "you will not see me" before you say "Blessed" is he who "comes" in the name of the Lord!

When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him. Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him. Jesus answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees saying, Is it "lawful" to heal on the "Sabbath".

But they were silent.  

But they were silent.  

He took him and "healed him", and let him go. He answered them, "Which-of" you if your son or an ox fell into a well, would not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day.

He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them, When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him, and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, Make room for this person. Then you would begin with shame to take the lowest place. But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, Friend move up higher. Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

He also said to the one who had invited him, When you make a dinner or a supper, do not call your friends, nor your brethren, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back. But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind; and you will be blessed, because they do not have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.

But he said to him, A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people. He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, Come, for everything is ready now. They all as one began to make excuses.  

But he said to him, A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people. He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, Come, for everything is ready now. They all as one began to make excuses.  

The first said to him, I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused. Another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused. Another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame. The servant said, Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room. The lord said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper.
