Luke 19
1 And he entered and passed through Jericho.
And Yahushua entered and passed through Jericho.
2 And behold, [there was] a man by name called Zacchaeus, and he was chief tax-gatherer, and he was rich.
And, behold, there was a man named Zacchehu, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was: and he could not for the crowd, because he was little in stature.
And he sought to see Yahushua who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
4 And running on before, he got up into a sycamore that he might see him, for he was going to pass that [way].
And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
5 And when he came up to the place, Jesus looked up and saw him, and said to him, Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for to-day I must remain in thy house.
And when Yahushua came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchehu, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.
6 And he made haste and came down, and received him with joy.
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
7 And all murmured when they saw [it], saying, He has turned in to lodge with a sinful man.
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
8 But Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I return [him] fourfold.
And Zacchehu stood, and said unto Yahushua; Behold, Rabbi, 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 him fourfold.
9 And Jesus said to him, To-day salvation is come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;
And Yahushua said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
10 for the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which is lost.

11 But as they were listening to these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem and they thought that the kingdom of God was about to be immediately manifested.
And 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 YHWH should immediately appear.
12 He said therefore, A certain high-born man went to a distant country to receive for himself a kingdom and return.
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 And having called his own ten bondmen, he gave to them ten minas, and said to them, Trade while I am coming.
And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not that this [man] should reign over us.
But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
15 And it came to pass on his arrival back again, having received the kingdom, that he desired these bondmen to whom he gave the money to be called to him, in order that he might know what every one had gained by trading.
And 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.
16 And the first came up, saying, [My] Lord, thy mina has produced ten minas.
Then came the first, saying, Master, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 And he said to him, Well [done], thou good bondman; because thou hast been faithful in that which is least, be thou in authority over ten cities.
And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
18 And the second came, saying, [My] Lord, thy mina has made five minas.
And the second came, saying, Master, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
19 And he said also to this one, And thou, be over five cities.
And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
20 And another came, saying, [My] Lord, lo, [there is] thy mina, which I have kept laid up in a towel.
And another came, saying, Master, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
21 For I feared thee because thou art a harsh man: thou takest up what thou hast not laid down, and thou reapest what thou hast not sowed.
For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
22 He says to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked bondman: thou knewest that I am a harsh man, taking up what I have not laid down and reaping what I have not sowed.
And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
23 And why didst thou not give my money to [the] bank; and I should have received it, at my coming, with interest?
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
24 And he said to those that stood by, Take from him the mina and give [it] to him who has the ten minas.
And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
25 And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.
( And they said unto him, Master, he hath ten pounds.)
26 For I say unto you, that to every one that has shall be given; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him.
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
27 Moreover those mine enemies, who would not [have] me to reign over them, bring them here and slay [them] before me.
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
28 And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.

30 saying, Go into the village over against [you], in which ye will find, on entering it, a colt tied up, on which no [child] of man ever sat at any time: loose it and lead it [here].
Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
31 And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose [it]? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord has need of it.
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Rabbi hath need of him.
32 And they that were sent, having gone their way, found as he had said to them.
And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.

And they said, the Rabbi hath need of him.
35 And they led it to Jesus; and having cast their own garments on the colt, they put Jesus on [it].
And they brought him to Yahushua: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Yahushua thereon.
36 And as he went, they strewed their clothes in the way.

And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
41 And as he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it,
And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
42 saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, even at least in this thy day, the things that are for thy peace: but now they are hid from thine eyes;
Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
43 for days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall make a palisaded mound about thee, and shall close thee around, and keep thee in on every side,
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
44 and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children in thee; and shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone: because thou knewest not the season of thy visitation.
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
