Luke 19
1 And Yahushua entered and passed through Jericho.
And as Jesus entered and passed through Jericho,
2 And, behold, there was a man named Zacchehu, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
there was a certain man, whose name was Zaccheus, who was rich, and chief of the publicans;
3 And he sought to see Yahushua who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
and he wished to see Jesus, who he was; and could not, on account of the crowd; because Zaccheus was small in stature.
4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
And he ran forward of Jesus, and climbed a wild fig-tree, in order to see him; for he was to pass that way.
5 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.
And when Jesus came to the place, he saw him, and said to him: Make haste and come down, Zaccheus; for I must be at thy house to-day.
6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
And he hastened, and came down, and received him with gladness.
7 And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
And when they all saw it, they murmured, and said: He hath gone in to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
8 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.
And Zaccheus stood up, and said to Jesus: Behold, my Lord, the half of my riches I give to the poor; and to every man, whom I have wronged in any thing, I restore fourfold.
9 And Yahushua said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
Jesus said to him: This day, life is to this house; for he also is a son of Abraham.
10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
For the Son of man came, to seek and to vivify that which was lost.
11 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.
And when they heard these things, he proceeded to utter a similitude; because he was near to Jerusalem, and they supposed that the kingdom of God was to be soon developed.
12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
And he said: A certain man of high birth was going to a distant place, to obtain royalty, and return again.
13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
And he called his ten servants, and gave them ten pounds: and he said to them, Traffic until I come.
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
But the inhabitants of his city hated him; and they sent envoys after him, saying: We wish this man not to reign over us.
15 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.
And when he had obtained the royalty, and had returned, he commanded those servants to be called, to whom he had committed his money; that he might know what each of them had gained by trading.
16 Then came the first, saying, Master, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
And the first came, and said: My Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
He said to him: Well done, good servant! As thou hast been faithful over a little, thou shalt have authority over ten towns.
18 And the second came, saying, Master, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
And the second came, and said: My lord, thy pound hath produced five pounds.
19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
He said likewise to him: Thou also shalt have authority over five towns.
20 And another came, saying, Master, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
And another came, and said: My lord, lo, this is thy pound, which hath been with me, laid up in fine linen.
21 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.
For I was afraid of thee, because thou art a hard man, and takest up that which thou layedst not down, and reapest that which thou sowedst not.
22 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:
He said to him: Out of thy own mouth will I judge thee, thou evil servant. Thou knewest me, that I am a hard man, and that I take up what I laid not down, and reap what I sowed not!
23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
Why didst thou not put my money into the broker's hands, that when I came, I might have demanded it with interest?
24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
And he said to them that stood before him: Take from him the pound, and give it to him with whom are the ten pounds.
25 ( And they said unto him, Master, he hath ten pounds.)
They say to him: Our lord, there are with him ten pounds.
26 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.
He said to them: I tell you, that to every one that hath, will be given; and from him that hath not, even what he hath will be taken away.
27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
But as for those my enemies, who would not have me to reign over them, bring them and slay them before me.
28 And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
And when Jesus had spoken these things, he went forward, to go to Jerusalem.
29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
And when he arrived at Bethphage and Bethany, near to the mount called the place of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30 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.
and said to them: Go ye to the village that is over against us, and as ye enter it, ye will find a colt tied, on which no man ever rode; loose him and bring him.
31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Rabbi hath need of him.
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? say to him: Our Lord needeth him.
32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.
And they went who were sent, and they found, as he said to them.
33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
And as they loosed the colt, the owner of him said to them: Why do ye loose that colt?
34 And they said, the Rabbi hath need of him.
And they said: Because our Lord needeth him.
35 And they brought him to Yahushua: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Yahushua thereon.
And they brought him to Jesus. And they cast their garments upon the colt, and set Jesus upon him.
36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
And as he went, they spread their garments in the way.
37 And 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 YHWH with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
And when he came near to the descent of the place of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice, and to praise God, with a loud voice, for all the mighty deeds which they had seen.
38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of YHWH: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
And they said: Blessed be the king, that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory on high.
39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
And some of the Pharisees from among the crowd, said to him: Rabbi, rebuke thy disciples.
40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
He said to them: I tell you, that, if these should be silent, the stones would cry out.
41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
And as he drew near, and beheld the city, he wept over it:
42 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.
and said: O, hadst thou known the things that are of thy peace, at least in this thy day: but now they are hidden from thy eyes.
43 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,
For the days will come upon thee, when thy enemies will encompass thee, and besiege thee on every side.
44 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.
And they will destroy thee, and thy children within thee; and will not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
And when he entered the temple, he began to expel those who bought and sold in it.
46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
And he said to them: It is written, My house is a house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of robbers.
47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
And he taught daily in the temple: and the chief priests and Scribes and Elders of the people, sought to destroy him.
48 And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
But they found not, what they could do to him; for all the people hung upon him to hear him.
