* When Jesus had entered , and was passing through Jericho , * behold , a man named Zaccheus , a rich man , and chief of the publicans , * endeavored to see what sort of person he was , but could not for the press , being of a low stature . * Therefore , running before , he climbed up into a sycamore , to see him ; having observed that he was going that way . * When Jesus came to the place , he looked up , and seeing him , said , * And he made haste , and came down , and received him joyfully . * When the multitude perceived this , they said , murmuring , He is gone to be entertained by a sinner . * But Zaccheus , presenting himself before Jesus , said , Master , half of my goods I will give to the poor ; and if in anything I have wronged any man , I will restore fourfold . * And Jesus said , concerning him , lont @Luke:19:10 " /> * As the people were attentive , he added this parable , because he was nigh to Jerusalem , and they fancied the Reign of God would immediately commence . lont @Luke:19:12 " /> lont @Luke:19:13 " /> lont @Luke:19:14 " /> lont @Luke:19:15 " /> lont @Luke:19:16 " /> lont @Luke:19:17 " /> lont @Luke:19:18 " /> lont @Luke:19:19 " /> lont @Luke:19:20 " /> lont @Luke:19:21 " /> lont @Luke:19:22 " /> lont @Luke:19:23 " /> lont @Luke:19:24 " /> lont @Luke:19:25 " /> lont @Luke:19:26 " /> lont @Luke:19:27 " /> * After this discourse , Jesus walked foremost , traveling toward Jerusalem . * When he approached Bethphage and Bethany , near the mountain called the Mount of Olives , he sent two of his disciples , * saying , lont @Luke:19:31 " /> * Accordingly , they who received this order , went , and found everything as he had told them . * As they were loosing the colt , the owners said to them , Why loose you the colt ? * They answered , The Master needs him . * So they brought him to Jesus , and having thrown their mantles upon the colt , set Jesus on it . * As he went , the people spread their mantles in the way before him . * When he was so near as the descent of the Mount of Olives , the whole multitude of the disciples began to praise God in loud acclamations , for all the miracles which they had seen ; * saying , Blessed be the King who comes in the name of the Lord ! Peace in heaven , and glory in the highest heaven ! * Upon this , some Pharisees in the crowd said to him , Rabbi , rebuke your disciples . * He answered , * When he came near , and beheld the city , he wept over it , * saying , lont @Luke:19:43 " /> lont @Luke:19:44 " /> * Afterward he went into the temple , and drove out thence those who sold , and those who bought in it , * «saying to them , » * And he taught daily in the temple , while the chief priests and the scribes , and persons of principal note , sought his destruction ; * but could not devise how to effect it : for all the people heard him with the greatest attention .
