13:6. He 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.
13:7. And 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 down therefore. Why cumbereth it the ground?
13:8. But he answering, said to him: Lord, let it alone this year also,
until I dig about it and dung it.
13:9. And if happily it bear fruit: but if not, then after that thou
shalt cut it down.
13:10. And he was teaching in their synagogue on their sabbath.
13:11. And 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.
13:12. Whom when Jesus saw, he called her unto him and said to her:
Woman, thou art delivered from thy infirmity.
13:13. And he laid his hands upon her: and immediately she was made
straight and glorified God.
13:14. And 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.
13:15. And 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?
13:16. And ought not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound,
lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
13:17. And 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.
13:18. He said therefore: To what is the kingdom of God like, and
whereunto shall I resemble it?
13:19. It 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.
13:20. And again he said: Whereunto shall I esteem the kingdom of God to
be like?
13:21. It is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three
measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
13:22. And he went through the cities and towns teaching and making his
journey to Jerusalem.
13:23. And a certain man said to him: Lord, are they few that are saved?
But he said to them:
13:24. Strive to enter by the narrow gate: for many, I say to you, shall
seek to enter and shall not be able.
Shall seek, etc... Shall desire to be saved; but for want of taking
sufficient pains, and being thoroughly in earnest, shall not attain to
it.
13:25. But 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.
13:26. Then you shall begin to say: We have eaten and drunk in thy
presence: and thou hast taught in our streets.
13:27. And he shall say to you: I know you not, whence you are. Depart
from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
13:28. There 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.
