LU-19:1 And [Jesus] entered and passed through Jericho.
LU-19:2 And, behold, [there was] a man named Zacchaeus, which
was the chief
among the publicans, and he was rich.
LU-19:3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not
for the press,
because he was little of stature.
LU-19:4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycamore tree
to see him: for
he was to pass that [way].
LU-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.
LU-19:6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him
joyfully.
LU-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.
LU-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.
LU-19:9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to
this house,
forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
LU-19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that
which was lost.
LU-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.
LU-19:12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far
country to
receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
LU-19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten
pounds, and
said unto them, Occupy till I come.
LU-19:14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after
him, saying, We
will not have this [man] to reign over us.
LU-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.
LU-19:16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath
gained ten pounds.
LU-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.
LU-19:18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath
gained five pounds.
LU-19:19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five
cities.
LU-19:20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] thy
pound, which I
have kept laid up in a napkin:
LU-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.
LU-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:
LU-19:23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank,
that at my
coming I might have required mine own with usury?
LU-19:24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the
pound, and
