Luke 13:18-30
18SoG3767 1He was sayingG3004, “2WhatG5101 is the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 likeG3664, and to whatG5101 shall I compareG3666 it? 19It is likeG3664 a mustardG4615 seedG2848, whichG3739 a manG444 tookG2983 and threwG906 into his ownG1438 gardenG2779; and it grewG837 and becameG1096 a treeG1186, and 3the birdsG4071 of the skyG3772 nestedG2681 in its branchesG2798.”
20And againG3825 He saidG3004, “4To whatG5101 shall I compareG3666 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316? 215It is likeG3664 6leavenG2219, whichG3739 a womanG1135 tookG2983 and hidG2928 in 7threeG5140 8sataG4568 of flourG224 untilG2193 it was allG3650 leavenedG2220.”
22And He was passingG1279 throughG1279 one cityG4172 and villageG2968 afterG2596 anotherG2596, teachingG1321, and 9proceedingG4160 on His wayG4197 to JerusalemG2414. 23And someoneG5100 saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, are there just a fewG3641 who are being savedG4982?” And He saidG3004 to them, 24“10StriveG75 to enterG1525 throughG1223 the narrowG4728 doorG2374; for manyG4183, I tellG3004 you, will seekG2212 to enterG1525 and will not beG2480 ableG2480. 25OnceG575G3739 the headG3617 ofG3617 theG3617 houseG3617 getsG1453 upG1453 and 11shutsG608 the doorG2374, and you beginG757 standingG2476 outsideG1854 and knockingG2925 on the doorG2374, sayingG3004, ‘12LordG2962, openG455 upG455 to us!’ and He then will answerG611 and sayG3004 to you, ‘13I do not knowG3609 whereG4159 you are from.’ 26ThenG5119 you will 14beginG757 sayingG3004, ‘We ateG2068 and drankG4095 inG1799 Your presenceG1799, and You taughtG1321 in our streetsG4116!’ 27And yet He will 15sayG3004, ‘16I do not knowG3609 whereG4159 you are from; 17leaveG868 Me, allG3956 you 18evildoersG2040G93.’ 2819In that placeG1563 thereG1510 will be weepingG2805 and gnashingG1030 of teethG3599 whenG3752 you seeG3708 AbrahamG11, IsaacG2464, JacobG2384, and allG3956 the prophetsG4396 in the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, but yourselvesG4771 being thrownG1544 outG1544. 29And they 20will comeG2240 from eastG395 and westG1424, and from northG1005 and southG3558, and will reclineG347 at the table in the kingdomG932 of GodG2316. 30And beholdG2400, 21some are lastG2078 whoG3739 will be firstG4413, and some are firstG4413 whoG3739 will be lastG2078.”
