  ²⁴Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly,

  ²⁵of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you to fulfill the word of God,

  ²⁶the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints,

  ²⁷to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

  ²⁸We proclaim him, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus;

  ²⁹for which I also labor, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.

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

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

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

  ⁴Or 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?

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

  ⁶He spoke this parable. “A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.

  ⁷He 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?’

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

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