Chapter 19
1
And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
2
And, behold, there was a man named Zacchæus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
3
And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
4
And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
5
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, +w Zacchæus|strong=“G2195”+w*, +w make haste|strong=“G4692”+w*, +w and come down|strong=“G2597”+w*; +w for|strong=“G1063”+w* +w to day|strong=“G4594”+w* +w I|strong=“G3165”+w* +w must|strong=“G1163”+w* +w abide|strong=“G3306”+w* +w at|strong=“G1722”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w house|strong=“G3624”+w*.
6
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
7
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
8
And Zacchæus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
9
And Jesus said unto him, +w This day|strong=“G4594”+w* +w is salvation|strong=“G4991”+w* +w come|strong=“G1096”+w* +w to this|strong=“G5129”+w* +w house|strong=“G3624”+w*, +w forsomuch|strong=“G3754”+w* +w as|strong=“G2530”+w* +w he|strong=“G0846”+w* +w also|strong=“G2532”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w a son|strong=“G5207”+w* +w of Abraham|strong=“G0011”+w*.
10
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w the Son|strong=“G5207”+w* +w of man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w is come|strong=“G2064”+w* +w to seek|strong=“G2212”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w to save|strong=“G4982”+w* +w that which|strong=“G3588”+w* +w was lost|strong=“G0622”+w*.
11
And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
12
He said therefore, +w A certain|strong=“G5100”+w* +w nobleman|strong=“G2104”+w* +w went|strong=“G4198”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w a far|strong=“G3117”+w* +w country|strong=“G5561”+w* +w to receive|strong=“G2983”+w* +w for himself|strong=“G1438”+w* +w a kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w to return|strong=“G5290”+w*.
13
+w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w he called|strong=“G2564”+w* +w his|strong=“G1438”+w* +w ten|strong=“G1176”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w*, +w and delivered|strong=“G1325”+w* +w them|strong=“G0846”+w* +w ten|strong=“G1176”+w* +w pounds|strong=“G3414”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w unto|strong=“G4314”+w* +w them|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Occupy|strong=“G4231”+w* +w till|strong=“G2193”+w* +w I come|strong=“G2064”+w*.
14
+w But|strong=“G1161”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w citizens|strong=“G4177”+w* +w hated|strong=“G3404”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w sent|strong=“G0649”+w* +w a message|strong=“G4242”+w* +w after|strong=“G3694”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*, +w We will|strong=“G2309”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w have|strong=“G2309”+w* +w this|strong=“G5126”+w* +add man+add* +w to reign|strong=“G0936”+w* +w over|strong=“G1909”+w* +w us|strong=“G2248”+w*.
15
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w it came to pass|strong=“G1096”+w*, +w that when|strong=“G1722”+w* +w he was|strong=“G0846”+w* +w returned|strong=“G1880”+w*, +w having received|strong=“G2983”+w* +w the kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w*, +w then|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he commanded|strong=“G2036”+w* +w these|strong=“G5128”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w* +w to be called|strong=“G5455”+w* +w unto him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w to whom|strong=“G3739”+w* +w he had given|strong=“G1325”+w* +w the money|strong=“G0694”+w*, +w that|strong=“G2443”+w* +w he might know|strong=“G1097”+w* +w how much|strong=“G5101”+w* +w every man|strong=“G5101”+w* +w had gained by trading|strong=“G1281”+w*.
16
+w Then|strong=“G1161”+w* +w came|strong=“G3854”+w* +w the first|strong=“G4413”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*, +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w pound|strong=“G3414”+w* +w hath gained|strong=“G4333”+w* +w ten|strong=“G1176”+w* +w pounds|strong=“G3414”+w*.
17
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w unto him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Well|strong=“G2095”+w*, +w thou good|strong=“G0018”+w* +w servant|strong=“G1401”+w*: +w because|strong=“G3754”+w* +w thou hast been|strong=“G1096”+w* +w faithful|strong=“G4103”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w a very little|strong=“G1646”+w*, +w have thou|strong=“G2468”+w* +w authority|strong=“G1849”+w* +w over|strong=“G1883”+w* +w ten|strong=“G1176”+w* +w cities|strong=“G4172”+w*.
18
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w the second|strong=“G1208”+w* +w came|strong=“G2064”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*, +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w pound|strong=“G3414”+w* +w hath gained|strong=“G4160”+w* +w five|strong=“G4002”+w* +w pounds|strong=“G3414”+w*.
19
+w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w he said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w likewise|strong=“G2532”+w* +w to him|strong=“G5129”+w*, +w Be|strong=“G1096”+w* +w thou|strong=“G4771”+w* +w also|strong=“G2532”+w* +w over|strong=“G1883”+w* +w five|strong=“G4002”+w* +w cities|strong=“G4172”+w*.
20
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w another|strong=“G2087”+w* +w came|strong=“G2064”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*, +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w behold|strong=“G2400”+w*, +add here is+add* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w pound|strong=“G3414”+w*, +w which|strong=“G3739”+w* +w I have|strong=“G2192”+w* +w kept laid up|strong=“G0606”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w a napkin|strong=“G4676”+w*:
21
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w I feared|strong=“G5399”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4571”+w*, +w because|strong=“G3754”+w* +w thou art|strong=“G1488”+w* +w an austere|strong=“G0840”+w* +w man|strong=“G0444”+w*: +w thou takest up|strong=“G0142”+w* +w that|strong=“G3739”+w* +w thou layedst|strong=“G5087”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w down|strong=“G5087”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w reapest|strong=“G2325”+w* +w that|strong=“G3739”+w* +w thou didst|strong=“G4687”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w sow|strong=“G4687”+w*.
22
+w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w he saith|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Out of|strong=“G1537”+w* +w thine own|strong=“G4675”+w* +w mouth|strong=“G4750”+w* +w will I judge|strong=“G2919”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4571”+w*, +add thou+add* +w wicked|strong=“G4190”+w* +w servant|strong=“G1401”+w*. +w Thou knewest|strong=“G1492”+w* +w that|strong=“G3754”+w* +w I|strong=“G1473”+w* +w was|strong=“G1510”+w* +w an austere|strong=“G0840”+w* +w man|strong=“G0444”+w*, +w taking up|strong=“G0142”+w* +w that|strong=“G3739”+w* +w I laid|strong=“G5087”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w down|strong=“G5087”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w reaping|strong=“G2325”+w* +w that|strong=“G3739”+w* +w I did|strong=“G4687”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w sow|strong=“G4687”+w*:
23
+w Wherefore|strong=“G1223”+w* +w then|strong=“G2532”+w* +w gavest|strong=“G1325”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w thou|strong=“G1325”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w money|strong=“G0694”+w* +w into|strong=“G1909”+w* +w the bank|strong=“G5132”+w*, +w that at|strong=“G2532”+w* +w my|strong=“G1473”+w* +w coming|strong=“G2064”+w* +w I might have required|strong=“G4238”+w* +w mine own|strong=“G0846”+w* +w with|strong=“G4862”+w* +w usury|strong=“G5110”+w*?
24
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w unto them that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w stood by|strong=“G3936”+w*, +w Take|strong=“G0142”+w* +w from|strong=“G0575”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w* +w the pound|strong=“G3414”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w give|strong=“G1325”+w* +add it+add* +w to him that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w ten|strong=“G1176”+w* +w pounds|strong=“G3414”+w*.
25
(+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w they said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w unto him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w he hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w ten|strong=“G1176”+w* +w pounds|strong=“G3414”+w*.)
26
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w I say|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w That|strong=“G3754”+w* +w unto every one|strong=“G3956”+w* +w which|strong=“G3588”+w* +w hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w shall be given|strong=“G1325”+w*; +w and|strong=“G1161”+w* +w from|strong=“G0575”+w* +w him|strong=“G3588”+w* +w that hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w*, +w even|strong=“G2532”+w* +w that|strong=“G3739”+w* +w he hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w shall be taken away|strong=“G0142”+w* +w from|strong=“G0575”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w*.
27
+w But|strong=“G4133”+w* +w those|strong=“G1565”+w* +w mine|strong=“G3450”+w* +w enemies|strong=“G2190”+w*, +w which|strong=“G3588”+w* +w would|strong=“G2309”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w that I|strong=“G3165”+w* +w should reign|strong=“G0936”+w* +w over|strong=“G1909”+w* +w them|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w bring|strong=“G0071”+w* +w hither|strong=“G5602”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w slay|strong=“G2695”+w* +add them+add* +w before|strong=“G1715”+w* +w me|strong=“G3450”+w*.
28
¶ And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
29
And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30
Saying, +w Go ye|strong=“G5217”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the village|strong=“G2968”+w* +w over against|strong=“G2713”+w* +add you+add*; +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w the which|strong=“G3739”+w* +w at your entering|strong=“G1531”+w* +w ye shall find|strong=“G2147”+w* +w a colt|strong=“G4454”+w* +w tied|strong=“G1210”+w*, +w whereon|strong=“G1909”+w* +w yet|strong=“G3739”+w* +w never|strong=“G4455”+w* +w man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w sat|strong=“G2523”+w*: +w loose|strong=“G3089”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w and bring|strong=“G0071”+w* +add him hither+add*.
31
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w if|strong=“G1437”+w* +w any man|strong=“G5100”+w* +w ask|strong=“G2065”+w* +w you|strong=“G5209”+w*, +w Why|strong=“G5101”+w* +w do ye loose|strong=“G3089”+w* +add him+add*? +w thus|strong=“G3779”+w* +w shall ye say|strong=“G2046”+w* +w unto him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Because|strong=“G3754”+w* +w the Lord|strong=“G2962”+w* +w hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w need|strong=“G5532”+w* +w of him|strong=“G0846”+w*.
32
And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.
33
And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
34
And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
35
And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
36
And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
37
And when he was come nigh, even now 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 that they had seen;
38
Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40
And he answered and said unto them, +w I tell|strong=“G3004”+w* +w you|strong=“G5213”+w* +w that|strong=“G3754”+w*, +w if|strong=“G1437”+w* +w these|strong=“G3778”+w* +w should hold their peace|strong=“G4623”+w*, +w the stones|strong=“G3037”+w* +w would immediately cry out|strong=“G2896”+w*.
41
¶ And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
42
Saying, +w If|strong=“G1487”+w* +w thou hadst known|strong=“G1097”+w*, +w even|strong=“G2532”+w* +w thou|strong=“G4771”+w*, +w at least|strong=“G1065”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w this|strong=“G3778”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w day|strong=“G2250”+w*, +w the things|strong=“G3588”+w* +add which belong+add* +w unto|strong=“G4314”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w peace|strong=“G1515”+w*! +w but|strong=“G1161”+w* +w now|strong=“G3568”+w* +w they are hid|strong=“G2928”+w* +w from|strong=“G0575”+w* +w thine|strong=“G4675”+w* +w eyes|strong=“G3788”+w*.
43
+w For|strong=“G3754”+w* +w the days|strong=“G2250”+w* +w shall come|strong=“G2240”+w* +w upon|strong=“G1909”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4571”+w*, +w that|strong=“G2532”+w* +w thine|strong=“G4675”+w* +w enemies|strong=“G2190”+w* +w shall cast|strong=“G4016”+w* +w a trench|strong=“G5482”+w* +w about thee|strong=“G4671”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w compass|strong=“G4033”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4571”+w* +w round|strong=“G4033”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w keep|strong=“G4912”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4571”+w* +w in|strong=“G4912”+w* +w on every side|strong=“G3840”+w*,
44
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w shall lay|strong=“G1474”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4571”+w* +w even with the ground|strong=“G1474”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w children|strong=“G5043”+w* +w within|strong=“G1722”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4671”+w*; +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w they shall|strong=“G0863”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w leave|strong=“G0863”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4671”+w* +w one stone|strong=“G3037”+w* +w upon|strong=“G1909”+w* +w another|strong=“G3037”+w*; +w because|strong=“G0473”+w* +w thou knewest|strong=“G1097”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w the time|strong=“G2540”+w* +w of thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w visitation|strong=“G1984”+w*.
45
And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
46
Saying unto them, +w It is written|strong=“G1125”+w*, +w My|strong=“G3450”+w* +w house|strong=“G3624”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w the house|strong=“G3624”+w* +w of prayer|strong=“G4335”+w*: +w but|strong=“G1161”+w* +w ye|strong=“G5210”+w* +w have made|strong=“G4160”+w* +w it|strong=“G0846”+w* +w a den|strong=“G4693”+w* +w of thieves|strong=“G3027”+w*.
47
And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
48
And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
