< Lucas 19 >

1 Pumasok si Jesus at dumaraan sa Jerico.
He entered and was passing through Jericho.
2 Masdan ninyo, mayroong lalaki doon na nagngangalang Zaqueo. Siya ay isang pinuno ng mga maniningil ng buwis at siya ay mayaman.
There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.
3 Sinusubukan niyang makita kung sino si Jesus, ngunit hindi niya makita sa dami ng tao, dahil siya ay maliit.
He was trying to see who Yeshua was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short.
4 Kaya tumakbo siya sa unahan ng mga tao at umakyat sa isang puno ng sikamoro upang makita siya, dahil daraan si Jesus sa daang iyon.
He ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was going to pass that way.
5 Nang makarating si Jesus sa dakong iyon, tumingala siya at sinabi sa kaniya, “Zaqueo, bumaba ka agad, sapagkat sa araw na ito, kinakailangan kong manatili sa iyong tahanan.”
When Yeshua came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.”
6 Kaya nagmadali siya, bumaba at tinanggap siya nang may galak.
He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully.
7 Nang makita ito ng lahat, dumaing silang lahat, sinasabi, “Pumunta siya upang bisitahin ang isang taong makasalanan.”
When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, “He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner.”
8 Tumayo si Zaqueo at sinabi niya sa Panginoon, “Tingnan mo, Panginoon, ibabahagi ko sa mga mahihirap ang kalahati ng aking mga ari-arian, at kung ako ay may nadayang sinuman sa anuman, ibabalik ang halaga ng maka-apat na beses.”
Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor. If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much.”
9 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kaniya, “Sa araw na ito, dumating ang kaligtasan sa bahay na ito, dahil anak din siya ni Abraham.
Yeshua said to him, “Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.
10 Sapagkat ang Anak ng Tao ay naparito upang hanapin at iligtas ang mga taong nawawala.”
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.”
11 Habang pinakikinggan nila ang mga bagay na ito, nagpatuloy siyang magsalita at nagsabi ng isang talinghaga, dahil malapit siya sa Jerusalem, at inakala nila na ang kaharian ng Diyos ay magsisimula na kaagad.
As they heard these things, he went on and told a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that God’s Kingdom would be revealed immediately.
12 Kaya sinabi niya, “May isang maharlikang pumunta sa malayong bansa upang tanggapin ang isang kaharian para sa kaniya at pagkatapos ay babalik.
He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.
13 Tinawag niya ang sampu sa kaniyang mga lingkod, at binigyan sila ng sampung mina, at sinabi sa kanila, 'Mag-negosyo kayo hanggang ako ay bumalik.'
He called ten servants of his and gave them ten mina coins, and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’
14 Ngunit kinamuhian siya ng kaniyang mga mamamayan at pinasunod sa kaniya ang isang lupon ng kinatawan, sinasabi, 'Ayaw namin na ang taong ito ang mamuno sa amin.'
But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’
15 Nangyari nang siya ay bumalik, natanggap na niya ang kaharian, pinatawag niya ang mga lingkod na binigyan niya ng pera, upang malaman niya kung magkano ang kanilang tinubo sa pagnenegosyo.
“When he had come back again, having received the kingdom, he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business.
16 Ang una ay lumapit sa kaniyang harapan, sinasabi, 'Panginoon, ang iyong mina ay nadagdagan pa ng sampung mina.'
The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’
17 Sinabi ng maharlika sa kaniya, 'Magaling, mabuting lingkod. Dahil ikaw ay naging tapat sa kakaunti, ikaw ay magkakaroon ng kapangyarihan sa sampung lungsod.'
“He said to him, ‘Well done, you good servant! Because you were found faithful with very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.’
18 Ang pangalawa dumating, sinasabi, 'Ang iyong mina, panginoon, ay nadagdagan pa ng limang mina.'
“The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’
19 Sinabi sa kaniya ng maharlika, 'Mamamahala ka sa limang lungsod.'
“So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’
20 At dumating ang isa pa, sinasabi, 'Panginoon, narito ang iyong mina, na maingat kong itinago sa isang tela,
Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,
21 sapagkat natatakot ako sa iyo, dahil ikaw ay mabagsik na tao. Kinukuha mo ang hindi mo iniipon, at inaani ang hindi mo inihasik.'
for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn’t lay down, and reap that which you didn’t sow.’
22 Sinabi sa kaniya ng maharlika, 'Huhusgahan kita ayon sa iyong mga salita, ikaw na masamang lingkod. Alam mo na ako ay mabagsik na tao, kinukuha ang hindi ko inilagay, at inaani ang hindi ko inihasik.
“He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down and reaping that which I didn’t sow.
23 Kung gayon bakit hindi mo inilagay ang aking pera sa bangko, upang sa pagbalik ko, makuha ko ito nang may kasamang tubo?'
Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’
24 Sinabi ng maharlika sa mga nakatayo doon, 'Kunin ninyo ang mina sa kaniya, at ibigay ninyo sa may sampung mina.'
He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’
25 Sinabi nila sa kaniya, 'Panginoon, mayroon siyang sampung mina.'
“They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’
26 'Sinasabi ko sa inyo, na ang lahat ng mayroon ay mabibigyan pa ng mas marami, ngunit sa kaniya na wala, kahit ang mayroon siya ay kukunin sa kaniya.
‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.
27 Ngunit ang aking mga kaaway, ang mga may ayaw na maghari ako sa kanila, dalhin ninyo sila rito at patayin sila sa harapan ko.'”
But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”
28 Nang nasabi na niya ang mga bagay na ito, nauna na siyang pumunta, paakyat sa Jerusalem.
Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
29 At nangyari nang palapit na siya sa Bethfage at sa Bethania, sa bundok na tinatawag na Olivet, nagsugo siya ng dalawa sa mga alagad,
When he came near to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,
30 sinasabi, “Pumunta kayo sa kabilang nayon. Sa inyong pagpasok, matatagpuan ninyo ang isang bisiro na hindi pa kailanman nasasakyan. Kalagan ninyo ito at dalhin sa akin.
saying, “Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, which no man has ever sat upon. Untie it and bring it.
31 Kung may magtatanong sa inyo, 'Bakit ninyo kinakalagan iyan?' sabihin ninyo, 'Kailangan ito ng Panginoon.'”
If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 Ang mga isinugo ay pumunta at natagpuan ang bisiro gaya ng sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila.
Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them.
33 Habang kinakalagan nila ang bisiro, sinabi ng mga may-ari sa kanila, “Bakit ninyo kinakalagan ang bisiro?”
As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 Sinabi nila, “Kailangan ito ng Panginoon.”
They said, “The Lord needs it.”
35 Dinala nila ito kay Jesus, at inilagay nila ang kanilang mga kasuotan sa ibabaw ng bisiro at pinasakay si Jesus.
Then they brought it to Yeshua. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Yeshua on them.
36 Habang siya ay nagpapatuloy, inilatag nila ang kanilang mga kasuotan sa daan.
As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.
37 Nang palapit na siya sa libis ng Bundok ng mga Olibo, ang buong karamihan ng mga alagad ay nagsimulang magalak at magpuri sa Diyos nang may malakas na tinig dahil sa lahat ng mga kamangha-manghang gawa na kanilang nakita,
As he was now getting near, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen,
38 na sinasabi, “Pinagpala ang hari na naparito sa pangalan ng Panginoon! Kapayapaan sa langit at kaluwalhatian sa kataastaasan!”
saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”
39 Sinabi sa kaniya ng ilan sa mga Pariseong kasama ng maraming tao, “Guro, sawayin mo ang iyong mga alagad.”
Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Rabbi, rebuke your disciples!”
40 Sumagot si Jesus at sinabing, “Sinasabi ko sa inyo, kung tatahimik sila, ang mga bato ay sisigaw.”
He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”
41 Nang palapit na si Jesus sa lungsod, iniyakan niya ito,
When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it,
42 sinasabi, “Kung alam mo lang sa araw na ito, kahit ikaw, ang mga bagay na magbibigay sa iyo ng kapayapaan! Ngunit ngayon ang mga ito ay lingid sa iyong mga mata.
saying, “If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes.
43 Sapagkat darating sa iyo ang mga araw, na magtatayo ng harang ang iyong mga kaaway sa palibot mo, at papalibutan ka, at gigipitin ka mula sa bawat panig.
For the days will come on you when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, surround you, hem you in on every side,
44 Hahampasin ka nila pababa sa lupa at kasama ang iyong mga anak. Hindi sila magtitira ng isang bato sa ibabaw ng isa pang bato, dahil hindi mo kinilala nang sinusubukan kang iligtas ng Diyos.”
and will dash you and your children within you to the ground. They will not leave in you one stone on another, because you didn’t know the time of your visitation.”
45 Pumasok si Jesus sa templo at sinimulang palayasin ang mga nagtitinda,
He entered into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it,
46 sinasabi sa kanila, “Nasusulat, 'Ang aking bahay ay magiging bahay-panalanginan,' ngunit ginawa ninyo itong lungga ng mga magnanakaw.”
saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!”
47 Kaya araw-araw nagtuturo si Jesus sa templo. Ang mga punong pari at ang mga eskriba at ang mga pinuno ng mga tao ay nais siyang patayin,
He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests, the scribes, and the leading men amongst the people sought to destroy him.
48 ngunit wala silang mahanap na paraan upang gawin ito, dahil ang lahat ng mga tao ay nakikinig nang mabuti sa kaniya.
They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.
