Tree Of Life Version

Luke 11:24-36 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

24. “When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, it passes through waterless places looking for rest. Not finding any, it says, ‘I will return to my house where I came from.’

25. And when it comes, it finds the house swept and put in order.

26. Then it goes and takes along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and settle there. And that man’s last condition becomes worse than the first.”

27. Then as Yeshua was saying these things, a certain woman in the crowd, raising her voice, said to Him, “Blessed is the womb that carried You and the breasts that nursed You!”

28. But He said, “Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29. With the crowds increasing, Yeshua began to say, “This generation is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, yet no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.

30. For just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation.

31. The Queen of the South will rise up at the Judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. And behold, something greater than Solomon is here.

32. The men of Nineveh will rise at the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, because they repented at Jonah’s proclamation. And indeed, one greater than Jonah is here.

33. “No one lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on the lampstand so that those entering may see the light.

34. Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light. But when it is sick, your body is full of darkness.

35. Therefore, watch out that the light in you is not darkness.

36. If then your body is full of light, with no part of it dark, it will be as full of light as when a lamp gives you light with its gleam.”
