1 So He entered Jericho and was passing through the town.
ⲁ̅ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩϣⲧ ⲛϩⲓⲉⲣⲓⲭⲱ
2 There was a man there called Zacchaeus, who was the local surveyor of taxes, and was wealthy.

3 He was anxious to see what sort of man Jesus was; but he could not because of the crowd, for he was short in stature.
ⲅ̅ⲉϥϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲓⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡϥϭⲙϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲡⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉϥϭⲟⲧ
4 So he ran on in front and climbed up a mulberry tree to see Him; for He was about to pass that way.
ⲇ̅ⲁϥⲡⲱⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲑⲏ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲗⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϫⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩϩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ
5 As soon as Jesus came to the place, He looked up and said to him, "Zacchaeus, come down quickly, for I must stay at your house to-day."
ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲁϥϥⲓⲁⲧϥ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲍⲁⲕⲭⲁⲓⲟⲥ ϭⲉⲡⲏ ⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ϩⲁⲡⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲕⲏⲓ ⲙⲡⲟⲟⲩ
6 So he came down in haste, and welcomed Him joyfully.

7 When they all saw this, they began to complain with indignation. "He has gone in to be the guest of a notorious sinner!" they said.

8 Zacchaeus however stood up, and addressing the Lord said, "Here and now, Master, I give half my property to the poor, and if I have unjustly exacted money from any man, I pledge myself to repay to him four times the amount."
ⲏ̅ⲁⲍⲁⲕⲭⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥ ϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ϯϯ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛⲧⲡⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲩⲡⲁⲣⲭⲟⲛⲧⲁ ⲛⲛϩⲏⲕⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓϯ ϣⲧⲟⲩⲏⲧ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲁ ϯⲛⲁⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛϥⲧⲟⲩ ⲕⲱⲃ
9 Turning towards him, Jesus replied, "To-day salvation has come to this house, seeing that he too is a son of Abraham.
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲓⲏⲓ ⲙⲡⲟⲟⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲁⲃⲣⲁϩⲁⲙ
10 For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."

11 As they were listening to His words, He went on to teach them by a parable, because He was near to Jerusalem and they supposed that the Kingdom of God was going to appear immediately.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϩ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥϫⲱ ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲩϩⲏⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲥⲟⲗⲩⲙⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ
12 So He said to them, "A man of noble family travelled to a distant country to obtain the rank of king, and to return.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϭⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲅⲉⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲩⲭⲱⲣⲁ ⲉⲥⲟⲩⲏⲩ ⲉϫⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ⲉⲕⲟⲧϥ
13 And he called ten of his servants and gave each of them a pound, instructing them to trade with the money during his absence.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲙⲏⲧ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲙⲙⲏⲧ ⲛⲙⲛⲁ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲣⲓ ϩⲱⲃ ϣⲁⲛϯⲉⲓ
14 "Now his countrymen hated him, and sent a deputation after him to say, 'We are not willing that he should become our king.'
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲛⲉϥⲣⲙ ⲛϯⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲟⲥⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲓⲁ ϩⲓ ⲡⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲛⲟⲩⲉϣ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲣⲣⲣⲟ ⲉϫⲱⲛ
15 And upon his return, after he had obtained the sovereignty, he ordered those servants to whom he had given the money to be summoned before him, that he might learn their success in trading.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲧⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲛⲓϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲙⲡϩⲁⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲩ ⲛϩⲱⲃ
16 "So the first came and said, "'Sir, your pound has produced ten pounds more.'

17 "'Well done, good servant,' he replied; 'because you have been faithful in a very small matter, be in authority over ten towns.'

20 "The next came. "'Sir,' he said, 'here is your pound, which I have kept wrapt up in a cloth.

22 "'By your own words,' he replied, 'I will judge you, you bad servant. You knew me to be a severe man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow:

23 why then did you not put my money into a bank, that when I came I might have received it back with interest?

24 "And he said to those who stood by, "'Take the pound from him and give it to him who has the ten pounds.'

26 "'I tell you that to every one who has anything, more shall be given; and from him who has not anything, even what he has shall be taken away.

28 After thus speaking, He journeyed onward, proceeding up to Jerusalem.

29 And when he was come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount called the Oliveyard, He sent two of the disciples on in front,

30 saying to them, "Go into the village facing you. On entering it you will find an ass's foal tied up which no one has ever yet ridden: untie it, and bring it here.

32 So those who were sent went and found things as He had told them.

33 And while they were untying the colt the owners called out, "Why are you untying the colt?"

35 Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their outer garments on the colt they placed Jesus on it.

37 And when He was now getting near Jerusalem, and descending the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began in their joy to praise God in loud voices for all the mighty deeds they had witnessed.

39 Thereupon some of the Pharisees in the crowd appealed to Him, saying, "Rabbi, reprove your disciples."

41 When He came into full view of the city, He wept aloud over it, and exclaimed,

45 Then Jesus entered the Temple and proceeded to drive out the dealers.

47 And day after day He taught in the Temple, while the High Priests and the Scribes were devising some means of destroying Him, as were also the leading men of the people.
