Then Jesus began to criticize openly the cities in which he had done many of his miracles, because they did not repent.

耶稣在诸城中行了许多异能，那些城的人终不悔改，就在那时候责备他们，说：

那时，耶稣在一些城行了许多异能。因为城里的人不肯悔改，他就责备那些城说：

那时，耶稣在一些城行了许多异能。因为城里的人不肯悔改，他就责备那些城说：

那时，耶稣开始责备一些城镇，因为祂在那里行了许多神迹，当地的居民仍不肯悔改。

那时，耶稣开始责备那些他曾在那里行过许多神迹的城，因为它们不肯悔改：

接着，耶稣开始斥责那些他曾经在其中行了许多神迹的城市，因为那里的人不肯悔改：

耶穌在諸城中行了許多異能，那些城的人終不悔改，就在那時候責備他們，說：

那時，耶穌在一些城行了許多異能。因為城裏的人不肯悔改，他就責備那些城說：

那時，耶穌在一些城行了許多異能。因為城裏的人不肯悔改，他就責備那些城說：

那時，耶穌開始責備一些城鎮，因為祂在那裡行了許多神蹟，當地的居民仍不肯悔改。

那時，耶穌開始責備那些他曾在那裡行過許多神蹟的城，因為它們不肯悔改：

於是耶穌開始責備那些城：他大多數的異能是在它們中間行的，它們還不悔改。

接著，耶穌開始斥責那些他曾經在其中行了許多神蹟的城市，因為那裡的人不肯悔改：

時、耶穌責其多行異能之諸邑、以其不改悔也、曰、

時、耶穌在諸邑、數施異能、而終無悔改者、於是責之曰、

耶穌曾在數邑內施異能、而彼終不悔改、故是時責之曰、

耶穌在諸邑廣行聖跡、而居民終不悔悟；因斥之曰：

Then Jesus began to denounce the towns in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent.

Jesus began to speak against the towns where he had done most of his miracles. The people there had not turned away from their sins. So he said,

Then he began to denounce the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.

Then Jesus began to denounce the towns where he had done so many of his miracles, because they hadn’t repented of their sins and turned to God.

Then he proceeded to denounce the towns where most of his miracles were done, because they did not repent:

Then He began to reprimand the cities in which most of His miracles were done, because they did not repent.

Then He began to rebuke the cities in which most of His mighty works had been done, because they did not repent:

Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not.

“ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you!And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will be thrown down to Hades!

Listen, O heavens, pay attention, O earth! For the LORD speaks:“ I raised children, I brought them up, but they have rebelled against me!An ox recognizes its owner, a donkey recognizes where its owner puts its food; but Israel does not recognize me, my people do not understand.”The sinful nation is as good as dead, the people weighed down by evil deeds. They are offspring who do wrong, children who do wicked things. They have abandoned the LORD, and rejected the Holy One of Israel. They are alienated from him.Why do you insist on being battered? Why do you continue to rebel? Your head has a massive wound, your whole body is weak.

But my people did not obey me; Israel did not submit to me.I gave them over to their stubborn desires; they did what seemed right to them.If only my people would obey me! If only Israel would keep my commands!

correcting opponents with gentleness. Perhaps God will grant them repentance and then knowledge of the truthand they will come to their senses and escape the devil’s trap where they are held captive to do his will.

The people of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented when Jonah preached to them– and now, something greater than Jonah is here!

“ What do you think? A man had two sons. He went to the first and said,‘ Son, go and work in the vineyard today.’The boy answered,‘ I will not.’ But later he had a change of heart and went.The father went to the other son and said the same thing. This boy answered,‘ I will, sir,’ but did not go.Which of the two did his father’s will?” They said,“ The first.” Jesus said to them,“ I tell you the truth, tax collectors and prostitutes will go ahead of you into the kingdom of God!For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax collectors and prostitutes did believe. Although you saw this, you did not later change your minds and believe him.

They blasphemed the God of heaven because of their sufferings and because of their sores, but nevertheless they still refused to repent of their deeds.

Thus people were scorched by the terrible heat, yet they blasphemed the name of God, who has ruling authority over these plagues, and they would not repent and give him glory.

For you are bringing some surprising things to our ears, so we want to know what they mean.”

Then he appeared to the eleven themselves, while they were eating, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen him resurrected.

Listen to what the LORD says:“ Get up! Defend yourself before the mountains! Present your case before the hills!”Hear the LORD’s accusation, you mountains, you enduring foundations of the earth! For the LORD has a case against his people; he has a dispute with Israel!“ My people, how have I wronged you? How have I wearied you? Answer me!In fact, I brought you up from the land of Egypt, I delivered you from that place of slavery. I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to lead you.My people, recall how King Balak of Moab planned to harm you, how Balaam son of Beor responded to him. Recall how you journeyed from Shittim to Gilgal, so you might acknowledge that the LORD has treated you fairly.”

I have listened to them very carefully, but they do not speak honestly. None of them regrets the evil he has done. None of them says,“ I have done wrong!” All of them persist in their own wayward course like a horse charging recklessly into battle.

But if anyone is deficient in wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without reprimand, and it will be given to him.

He answered them,“ You unbelieving generation! How much longer must I be with you? How much longer must I endure you? Bring him to me.”

I have given her time to repent, but she is not willing to repent of her sexual immorality.

The rest of humanity, who had not been killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, so that they did not stop worshiping demons and idols made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood– idols that cannot see or hear or walk about.Furthermore, they did not repent of their murders, of their magic spells, of their sexual immorality, or of their stealing.
