Luke 13:1-5

Expanded Bible

Change Your Hearts

13 At that time some people were there who told Jesus that Pilate [^CPontius Pilate, governor of Judea from ad 26 to 36; see 3:1] had killed some people from Galilee while they were worshiping. He mixed their blood with the blood of the animals they were sacrificing to God. ² Jesus answered, “Do you think ·this happened to them [^Lthey suffered these things] because they were more sinful than all others from Galilee? ³ No, I tell you. But unless you ·change your hearts and lives [repent], you will [^Lall] be destroyed as they were! ⁴ [^LOr] What about those eighteen people who died when the tower of Siloam fell on them? Do you think they were ·more sinful [more guilty; greater offenders] than all the others who live in Jerusalem? ⁵ No, I tell you. But unless you ·change your hearts and lives [repent], you will all be destroyed too!”
