¹ And thou, son of man, prophesy concerning Gog, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O Gog, Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal,

² And have turned thee back, and enticed thee, And caused thee to come up from the sides of the north, And brought thee in against mountains of Israel,

³ And have smitten thy bow out of thy left hand, Yea, thine arrows out of thy right I cause to fall.

⁴ On mountains of Israel thou fallest, Thou, and all thy bands, and the peoples who [are] with thee, To ravenous fowl -- a bird of every wing, And [to] a beast of the field, I have given thee for food.

⁵ On the face of the field thou fallest, for I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

⁶ And I have sent a fire against Magog, And against the confident inhabitants of the isles, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.

⁷ And My holy name I make known in the midst of My people Israel, And I pollute not My holy name any more, And known have the nations that I, Jehovah, the holy One, [am] in Israel.

⁸ Lo, it hath come, and it hath been done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, It [is] the day of which I spake.

⁹ And gone out have the inhabitants of cities of Israel, And they have burned and kindled [a fire], With armour, and shield, and buckler, With bow, and with arrows, And with hand-staves, and with javelins, And they have caused a fire to burn with them seven years,

¹⁰ And they do not take wood out of the field, Nor do they hew out of the forests, For with armour they cause the fire to burn, And they have spoiled their spoilers, And they have plundered their plunderers, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

¹¹ And it hath come to pass, in that day, I give to Gog a place there -- a grave in Israel, the valley of those passing by, east of the sea, and it is stopping those passing by, and they have buried there Gog, and all his multitude, and have cried, O valley of the multitude of Gog!

¹² And the house of Israel have buried them -- in order to cleanse the land -- seven months.

¹³ Yea, all the people of the land have buried them, and it hath been to them for a name -- the day of My being honoured -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁴ And men for continual employment they separate, passing on through the land, burying with those passing by those who are left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it: at the end of seven months they search.

¹⁵ And those passing by have passed through the land, and seen a bone of man, and one hath constructed near it a sign till those burying have buried it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.

¹⁶ And also the name of the city [is] The multitude; and they have cleansed the land.

¹⁷ And thou, son of man, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Say to the bird -- every wing, and to every beast of the field: Be assembled and come in, Be gathered from round about, For My sacrifice that I am sacrificing for you, A great sacrifice on mountains of Israel, And ye have eaten flesh, and drunk blood.

¹⁸ Flesh of the mighty ye do eat, And blood of princes of the earth ye drink, Of rams, of lambs, and of he-goats, Of calves, fatlings of Bashan -- all of them.

¹⁹ And ye have eaten fat to satiety, And ye have drunk blood -- to drunkenness, Of My sacrifice that I sacrificed for you.

²⁰ And ye have been satisfied at My table with horse and rider, Mighty man, and every man of war, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

²¹ And I have given My honour among nations, And seen have all the nations My Judgment that I have done, And My hand that I have laid on them.

²² And known have the house of Israel that I [am] Jehovah their God, From that day and henceforth.

²³ And known have the nations that for their iniquity, Removed have the house of Israel, Because they have trespassed against Me, And I do hide My face from them, And give them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fall by sword -- all of them.

²⁴ According to their uncleanness, And according to their transgressions, I have done with them, And I do hide My face from them.

²⁵ Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Now do I bring back the captivity of Jacob, And I have pitied all the house of Israel, And have been zealous for My holy name.

²⁶ And they have forgotten their shame, And all their trespass that they trespassed against Me, In their dwelling on their land confidently and none troubling.

²⁷ In My bringing them back from the peoples, I have assembled them from the lands of their enemies, And I have been sanctified in them before the eyes of the many nations,

²⁸ And they have known that I [am] Jehovah their God, In My removing them unto the nations, And I have gathered them unto their land, And I leave none of them any more there.

²⁹ And I hide not any more My face from them, In that I have poured out My spirit on the house of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'

¹ Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

² Jesus answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things?

³ I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.

⁴ Or 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?

⁵ I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."

⁶ 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.

⁷ 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?'

⁸ He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.

⁹ If it bears fruit, fine; but if not, after that, you can cut it down.'"

¹⁰ He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.

¹¹ Behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.

¹² When Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."

¹³ He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.

¹⁴ 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!"

¹⁵ Therefore 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?

¹⁶ 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?"

¹⁷ 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.

¹⁸ He said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? To what shall I compare it?

¹⁹ It 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 lodged in its branches."

²⁰ Again he said, "To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?

²¹ It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."

²² He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.

²³ One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,

²⁴ "Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.

²⁵ 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 don't know you or where you come from.'

²⁶ Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'

²⁷ He will say, 'I tell you, I don't know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'

²⁸ There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.

²⁹ They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.

³⁰ Behold, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."

³¹ On that same day, some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."

³² He 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.

³³ Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can't be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.'

³⁴ "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that 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!

³⁵ Behold, 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!'"
