* And Jesus entered (5631 ) and passed through (5711 ) Jericho . * And , behold (5628 ), there was a man named (5746 ) Zacchaeus , which was (5713 ) the chief among the publicans , and he was (5713 ) rich . * And he sought (5707 ) to see (5629 ) Jesus who he was (5748 ); and could (5711 ) not for the press , because he was (5713 ) little of stature . * And he ran (5631 ) before , and climbed up (5627 ) into a sycomore tree to see (5632 ) him : for he was (5707 ) to pass (5738 ) that way . * And when Jesus came (5627 ) to the place , he looked up (5660 ), and saw (5627 ) him , and said (5627 ) unto him , Zacchaeus , make haste (5660 ), and come down (5628 ); for to day I must (5748 ) abide (5658 ) at thy house . * And he made haste (5660 ), and came down (5627 ), and received (5662 ) him joyfully (5723 ). * And when they saw (5631 ) it , they all murmured (5707 ), saying (5723 ), That he was gone (5627 ) to be guest (5658 ) with a man that is a sinner . * And Zacchaeus stood (5685 ), and said (5627 ) unto the Lord ; Behold (5628 ), Lord , the half of my goods (5723 ) I give (5719 ) to the poor ; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation (5656 ), I restore (5719 ) him fourfold . * And Jesus said (5627 ) unto him , This day is salvation come (5633 ) to this house , forsomuch as he also is (5748 ) a son of Abraham . * For the Son of man is come (5627 ) to seek (5658 ) and to save (5658 ) that which was lost (5756 ). * And as they heard (5723 ) these things , he added (5631 ) and spake (5627 ) a parable , because he was (5750 ) nigh to Jerusalem , and because they thought (5721 ) that the kingdom of God should (5719 ) immediately appear (5745 ). * He said (5627 ) therefore , A certain nobleman went (5675 ) into a far country to receive (5629 ) for himself a kingdom , and to return (5658 ). * And he called (5660 ) his ten servants , and delivered (5656 ) them ten pounds , and said (5627 ) unto them , Occupy (5663 ) till I come (5736 ). * But his citizens hated (5707 ) him , and sent (5656 ) a message after him , saying (5723 ), We will not have (5719 ) this man to reign (5658 ) over us . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that when he was returned (5629 ), having received (5631 ) the kingdom , then he commanded (5627 ) these servants to be called (5683 ) unto him , to whom he had given (5656 ) the money , that he might know (5632 ) how much every man had gained by trading (5662 ). * Then came (5633 ) the first , saying (5723 ), Lord , thy pound hath gained (5662 ) ten pounds . * And he said (5627 ) unto him , Well , thou good servant : because thou hast been (5633 ) faithful in a very little , have (5723 ) thou authority (5749 ) over ten cities . * And the second came (5627 ), saying (5723 ), Lord , thy pound hath gained (5656 ) five pounds . * And he said (5627 ) likewise to him , Be (5737 ) thou also over five cities . * And another came (5627 ), saying (5723 ), Lord , behold (5628 ), here is thy pound , which I have (5707 ) kept laid up (5740 ) in a napkin : * For I feared (5711 ) thee , because thou art (5748 ) an austere man : thou takest up (5719 ) that thou layedst not down (5656 ), and reapest (5719 ) that thou didst not sow (5656 ). * And he saith (5719 ) unto him , Out of thine own mouth will I judge (5692 ) thee , thou wicked servant . Thou knewest (5715 ) that I was (5748 ) an austere man , taking up (5723 ) that I laid not down (5656 ), and reaping (5723 ) that I did not sow (5656 ): * Wherefore then gavest not thou (5656 ) my money into the bank , that at my coming (5631 ) I might have required (5656 ) mine own with usury ? * And he said (5627 ) unto them that stood by (5761 ), Take (5657 ) from him the pound , and give (5628 ) it to him that hath (5723 ) ten pounds . * (And they said (5627 ) unto him , Lord , he hath (5719 ) ten pounds .) * For I say (5719 ) unto you , That unto every one which hath (5723 ) shall be given (5701 ); and from him that hath (5723 ) not , even that he hath (5719 ) shall be taken away (5701 ) from him . * But those mine enemies , which would (5660 ) not that I should reign (5658 ) over them , bring (5628 ) hither , and slay (5657 ) them before me . * And when he had thus spoken (5631 ), he went (5711 ) before , ascending up (5723 ) to Jerusalem . * And it came to pass (5633 ), when he was come nigh (5656 ) to Bethphage and Bethany , at the mount called (5746 ) the mount of Olives , he sent (5656 ) two of his disciples , * Saying (5631 ), Go ye (5720 ) into the village over against you ; in the which at your entering (5740 ) ye shall find (5692 ) a colt tied (5772 ), whereon yet never man sat (5656 ): loose (5660 ) him , and bring (5628 ) him hither . * And if any man ask (5725 ) you , Why do ye loose (5719 ) him ? thus shall ye say (5692 ) unto him , Because the Lord hath (5719 ) need of him . * And they that were sent (5772 ) went their way (5631 ), and found (5627 ) even as he had said (5627 ) unto them . * And as they were loosing (5723 ) the colt , the owners thereof said (5627 ) unto them , Why loose ye (5719 ) the colt ? * And they said (5627 ), The Lord hath (5719 ) need of him . * And they brought (5627 ) him to Jesus : and they cast their garments upon the colt , and (5660 ) they set Jesus thereon (5656 ). * And as he went (5740 ), they spread (5707 ) their clothes in the way . * And when he was come nigh (5723 ), even now at the descent of the mount of Olives , the whole multitude of the disciples began (5662 ) to rejoice (5723 ) and praise (5721 ) God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen (5627 ); * Saying (5723 ), Blessed (5772 ) be the King that cometh (5740 ) in the name of the Lord : peace in heaven , and glory in the highest . * And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said (5627 ) unto him , Master , rebuke (5657 ) thy disciples . * And he answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ) unto them , I tell (5719 ) you that , if these should hold their peace (5661 ), the stones would immediately cry out (5688 ). * And when he was come near (5656 ), he beheld (5631 ) the city , and wept (5656 ) over it , * Saying (5723 ), If thou hadst known (5627 ), even thou , at least in this thy day , the things which belong unto thy peace ! but now they are hid (5648 ) from thine eyes . * For the days shall come (5692 ) upon thee , that thine enemies shall cast a trench about (5692 ) thee , and compass thee round (5692 ), and keep thee in (5692 ) on every side , * And shall lay thee even with the ground (5692 ), and thy children within thee ; and they shall not leave (5692 ) in thee one stone upon another ; because thou knewest (5627 ) not the time of thy visitation . * And he went (5631 ) into the temple , and began (5662 ) to cast out (5721 ) them that sold (5723 ) therein , and them that bought (5723 ); * Saying (5723 ) unto them , It is written (5769 ), My house is (5748 ) the house of prayer : but ye have made (5656 ) it a den of thieves . * And he taught (5713 ) (5723 ) daily in the temple . But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought (5707 ) to destroy (5658 ) him , * And could not find (5707 ) what they might do (5661 ): for all the people were very attentive (5710 ) to hear (5723 ) him .
