Luke 19
1 And as Jeshu entered and passed through Jirichu,
He entered and was passing through Jericho.
2 there was a certain man whose name was Zakai; he was rich and chief of the publicans:
There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.
3 and he wished to see Jeshu, who he was, and could not for the crowd, because in his stature Zakai was small.
He was trying to see who Yeshua was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short.
4 And he ran before Jeshu, and ascended a wild fig-tree to see him, because so he was about to pass.
He ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was going to pass that way.
5 And when Jeshu came to that place, he saw him, and said to him, Be in haste, descend, Zakai; for to-day I must be at thy house.
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 And he was in haste, and descended, and received him rejoicing.
He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully.
7 But when they all saw (this), they murmured, and said that with a man a sinner he hath gone in to abide.
When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, “He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner.”
8 But Zakai stood, and said to Jeshu, Behold, my Lord, the dividing of my wealth give I to the poor; and to every man, whatever I have wrongfully taken, fourfold I restore.
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 Jeshu saith to him, To-day is there salvation to this house, because this (man) also (is a) son of Abraham.
Yeshua said to him, “Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.
10 For the Son of man came to save that which was lost.
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.”
11 And when they had heard these things, he added to speak a parable; because he had drawn nigh to Urishlem, and they expected that in that hour would be revealed the kingdom of Aloha.
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 And he said, A certain man of a noble house went into a distant country, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.
13 And he called his ten servants, and gave to them ten minin, and said to them, Trade till I come.
He called ten servants of his and gave them ten mina coins, and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent messengers after him, saying, We are not willing that this should reign over us.
But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’
15 And having received the kingdom and returned, he spake to call to him those servants to whom he had given the silver, that he might know how every one of them had traded.
“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 And the first came and said, My lord, thy mani ten minin hath gained.
The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’
17 He saith to him, Well, good servant: because in a little thou art found faithful, thou shalt have rule over ten towns.
“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 And the second came and said, My lord, thy mani five minin hath made.
“The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’
19 He saith also to this, Thou also shalt have rule over five towns.
“So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’
20 And the other came and said, My lord, behold thy mani which I have had with me, laid up in a napkin.
Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,
21 For I feared thee, because thou art a hard man, taking up what thou hadst not laid down, and reaping what thou sowedst not.
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 He said to him, From thy own mouth I will judge thee, evil servant: thou didst know that I was a hard man, taking up what I had not laid down, and reaping what I sowed not:
“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 why (then) gavest thou not my silver upon the table, that when I came I might require it with its increase?
Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’
24 And to those who stood before him he said, Take from him the mani, and give to him who hath the ten minin.
He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’
25 They say to him, Our lord, he hath ten minin.
“They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’
26 He saith to them, I tell you, that to every one who hath (it) shall be given; and from him who hath not, that also which he hath shall be taken.
‘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 But those adversaries who would not that I should reign over them, bring them, and slay them before me.
But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”
28 AND when Jeshu had said these things, he went forward to go to Urishlem.
Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
29 And when he came to Bethphage and Beth-ania, at the mount that is called the Place of Olives, he sent two from his disciples,
When he came near to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,
30 and said to them, Go to the village over against us; and as you enter, behold, you will find a colt tied, whereon no man hath ridden: loose and bring him.
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 And if any man demand why you loose him, thus say: It is requested by our Lord.
If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 And they who were sent went and found as he had told them.
Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them.
33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners of him said to them, Why loose you the colt?
As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 And they said to them, Because by our Lord it is requested.
They said, “The Lord needs it.”
35 And they brought him to Jeshu; and they cast upon the colt their garments, and Jeshu rode upon him.
Then they brought it to Yeshua. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Yeshua on them.
36 And as they went, they spread their clothes in the way.
As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.
37 And when he had come nigh to the declivity of the Mount of Olives, the whole assembly of the disciples began to rejoice, and praise Aloha with a high voice, for all the mighty acts which they had seen:
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 and they said, Blessed be the King who cometh in the name of the Lord! Peace in the heavens, and glory in the highest!
saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”
39 But some of the Pharishee from among the multitudes say to him, Rabi, rebuke thy disciples.
Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Rabbi, rebuke your disciples!”
40 He saith to them, I tell you, if these should be silent, the stones would cry out.
He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”
41 AND when he approached, and saw the city, he wept over her, saying,
When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it,
42 If thou hadst known these things which are for thy peace, and in this thy day! But now they are hidden from thine eyes.
saying, “If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes.
43 But the days will come to thee when thine enemies shall encompass thee and straiten thee on every side,
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 and they shall overthrow thee, and thy children within thee, and not leave in thee one stone upon another, because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
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 And as he went into the temple, he began to cast out those who bought in it and sold,
He entered into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it,
46 and said to them, It is written that my house is the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.
saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!”
47 And he taught every day in the temple; but the chief priests and the scribes and the elders of the people sought to destroy him,
He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests, the scribes, and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him.
48 but could not find what they might do to him; for all the people hung upon him to hear him.
They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.
