nkjv Luke:19:1-28

nkjv@Luke:19:1 @ Then Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.

nkjv@Luke:19:2 @ Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.

nkjv@Luke:19:3 @ And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature.

nkjv@Luke:19:4 @ So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was going to pass that way.

nkjv@Luke:19:5 @ And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, "Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for today I must stay at your house."

nkjv@Luke:19:6 @ So he made haste and came down, and received Him joyfully.

nkjv@Luke:19:7 @ But when they saw it, they all complained, saying, "He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner."

nkjv@Luke:19:8 @ Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, "Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold."

nkjv@Luke:19:9 @ And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham;

nkjv@Luke:19:10 @ for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."

nkjv@Luke:19:11 @ Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately.

nkjv@Luke:19:12 @ Therefore He said: "A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.

nkjv@Luke:19:13 @ So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, "Do business till I come.'

nkjv@Luke:19:14 @ But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, "We will not have this man to reign over us.'

nkjv@Luke:19:15 @ "And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.

nkjv@Luke:19:16 @ Then came the first, saying, "Master, your mina has earned ten minas.'

nkjv@Luke:19:17 @ And he said to him, "Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.'

nkjv@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, "Master, your mina has earned five minas.'

nkjv@Luke:19:19 @ Likewise he said to him, "You also be over five cities.'

nkjv@Luke:19:20 @ "Then another came, saying, "Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a handkerchief.

nkjv@Luke:19:21 @ For I feared you, because you are an austere man. You collect what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.'

nkjv@Luke:19:22 @ And he said to him, "Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was an austere man, collecting what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow.

nkjv@Luke:19:23 @ Why then did you not put my money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with interest?'

nkjv@Luke:19:24 @ "And he said to those who stood by, "Take the mina from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.'

nkjv@Luke:19:25 @ (But they said to him, "Master, he has ten minas.')

nkjv@Luke:19:26 @ "For I say to you, that to everyone who has will be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

nkjv@Luke:19:27 @ But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me."'

nkjv@Luke:19:28 @ When He had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
