(22)And he passed through the cities and villages, teaching, and making his way towards Jerusalem. (23)And a person said to him, Lord, are the saved few? And he said unto them, (24)Exert all your powers to enter through the strait gate: for many, I tell you, will seek to enter, but will not be able. (25)When the master of the family shall have arisen, and shut the door, and ye shall begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Master, master, open it for us! and he answering will tell you, I know you not whence ye are: (26)then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. (27)And he will say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. (28)There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom, and yourselves cast out. (29)And they shall come from the east, and west, and from north, and south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. (30)And, behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last. (31)The same day came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Depart, and begone from hence: for Herod will kill thee. (32)And he said to them, Go tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and perform cures today and to-morrow, and on the third day I shall be perfected. (33)But I must go on to-day and to-morrow, and the day following: for it is impossible that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. (34)O Jerusalem! Jerusalem! thou that killest the prophets, and stonest those who are sent unto thee; how often would I have collected thy children unto me, just as a hen gathereth her brood under her wings, and ye would not! (35)Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: verily I say unto you, That ye shall see me no more, till the day come when ye shall say, Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord. CHAP. XIV. AND it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the principal Pharisees, to eat bread on the sabbath, that they were watchfully observant of him. (2)And, behold, there was a certain man who had a dropsy, before him. (3)And Jesus addressing himself to the teachers of the law and the Pharisees, spake, saying, Is it lawful to perform cures on the sabbath? (4)And they said nothing. And he took him, and healed him, and sent him away; (5)and addressing them, said, Whose ass or ox is fallen into a pit, and doth he not immediately pull him out on the sabbath-day? (6)And they were unable to answer him in opposition to these things.
