Luke 19

1And entered and passed through Jericho. 2And, behold, a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. 3And he sought to see Yahusha who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. 4And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that . 5And when Yahusha came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at your house. 6And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. 7And when they saw , they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner. 8And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore fourfold. 9And Yahusha said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham. 10For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. 11And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of Elohim should immediately appear. 12He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. 14But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this to reign over us. 15And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16Then came the first, saying, Lord, your pound has gained ten pounds. 17And he said unto him, Well, you good servant: because you hast been faithful in a very little, have you authority over ten cities. 18And the second came, saying, Lord, your pound has gained five pounds. 19And he said likewise to him, Be you also over five cities. 20And another came, saying, Lord, behold, your pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21For I feared you, because you art an austere man: you takest up that you layedst not down, and reapest that you didst not sow. 22And he says unto him, Out of your own mouth will I judge you, wicked servant. you knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23therefore then gavest not you my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? 24And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give to him that has ten pounds. 25(And they said unto him, Lord, he has ten pounds.) 26For I say unto you, That unto every one which has shall be given; and from him that has not, even that he has shall be taken away from him. 27But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay before me. 28And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem. 29And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, 30Saying, Go ye into the village over against ; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring . 31And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose ? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord has need of him. 32And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them. 33And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? 34And they said, The Lord has need of him. 35And they brought him to Yahusha: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Yahusha thereon. 36And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way. 37And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise Elohim with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; 38Saying, Blessed the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. 39And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke your disciples. 40And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out. 41And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, 42Saying, If you hadst known, even you, at least in this your day, the things unto your peace! but now they are hid from your eyes. 43For the days shall come upon you, that your enemies shall cast a trench about you, and compass you round, and keep you in on every side, 44And shall lay you even with the ground, and your children within you; and they shall not leave in you one stone upon another; because you knewest not the time of your visitation. 45And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought; 46Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves. 47And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him, 48And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
