19:1
And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
19:2
And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among
the publicans, and he was rich.
19:3
And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press,
because he was little of stature.
19:4
And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he
was to pass that way.
19:5
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto
him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy
house.
19:6
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
19:7
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be
guest with a man that is a sinner.
19:8
And Zacchaeus 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.
19:9
And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house,
forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
19:10
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
(19:12-27) Jesus says that God is like an unjust king who takes what is not rightly his,
reaps what he didn't sow, and has those who don't want to be ruled by him slaughtered in front of him. What the Bible says about democracy
(19:12) "A certain nobleman went into a far country."
(19:13) "He called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come."
(19:14) "But his citizens hated him ... saying, We will not have this man to reign over us."
(19:15) "When he ... returned ... he commanded these servants to be called unto him."
(19:16) "Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds."
(19:17) "He said ... Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been
faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities."
(19:18) "The second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds."
(19:19) "He said ... Be thou also over five cities."
(19:20) "Another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have
kept laid up in a napkin."
19:11
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.
19:12
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive
for himself a kingdom, and to return.
19:13
And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said
unto them, Occupy till I come.
19:14But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will
not have this man to reign over us.
19:15
And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the
kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he
had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by
trading.
19:16Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
19:17
And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been
faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
19:18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
19:19
And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
19:20
And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have
kept laid up in a napkin:
19:21
For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that
thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
19:22
And he saith unto him, Out
of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that
I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did
not sow:
(19:22-23) "Thou wicked servant ... Wherefore then gavest
not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required
mine own with usury?"
19:23Wherefore then gavest
not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required
mine own with usury?
19:24
And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it
to him that hath ten pounds.
(19:24) "Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds."
19:25
(And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
19:26
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and
from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
(19:26) "Unto every one which hath shall be given; and
from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him."
(19:27) "But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay
them before me."
19:27But those mine
enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay
them before me.
19:28
And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
19:29
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,
(19:30) "Go ye into the village .... ye shall find a colt tied ... loose him, and bring him hither."
19:30
Saying, Go ye into the
village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find
a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
19:31
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him,
Because the Lord hath need of him.
19:32
And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto
them.
19:33
And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why
loose ye the colt?
(19:36) "As he went, they spread their clothes in the way."
(19:37) "When he was ... at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude ... began to rejoice ... with a
loud voice."
(19:38) "Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest."
19:35
And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and
they set Jesus thereon.
19:36
And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
19:37
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;
19:38Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in
heaven, and glory in the highest.
19:39
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master,
rebuke thy disciples.
19:40
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold
their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
19:41
And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
19:42
Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the
things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
19:43
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench
about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
19:44
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and
they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest
not the time of thy visitation.
19:45
And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein,
and them that bought;
(19:45) "He went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought."
(19:46) "Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye
have made it a den of thieves."
19:46Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye
have made it a den of thieves.
19:47
And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes
and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
19:48
And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very
attentive to hear him.
