1	And he entred in, and went through Hierico.	He entered Jericho and was passing through.	Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.
2	And beholde, there was a man named Zacheus, which was the chiefe among the publicanes, and was riche also :	And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich.	A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy.
3	And he sought meanes to see Iesus, what he shoulde be, & coulde not for the preasse, because he was litle of stature.	And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature.	He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd.
4	And he ran before, and clymed vp into a wylde fygge tree, to see hym: for he was to come that way.	So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was about to pass that way.	So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.
5	And when Iesus came to the place, he loked vp and sawe hym, and sayde vnto hym: Zache, come downe at once, for to day I must abyde at thy house.	And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I must stay at your house today.”	When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.”
6	And he came downe hastyly, and receaued hym ioyfully.	So he hurried and came down and received him joyfully.	So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.
7	And when they al saw it, they murmured, saying that he was gone in to tary with a man that is a synner.	And when they saw it, they all grumbled, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.”	All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”
8	And Zache stoode foorth, and sayde vnto the Lorde: Beholde Lorde, the halfe of my goodes I geue to the poore, and yf I haue taken from any man by forged cauillation, I restore him foure folde.	And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.”	But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”
9	Iesus sayde vnto hym: This daye is saluation come to this house, because that he also is become the childe of Abraham.	And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.	Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.
10	For the sonne of man is come to seke, and to saue that which was lost.	For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”	For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
11	And as they hearde these thynges, he added & spake a parable, because he was nye to Hierusale, & because they thought that the kingdome of God should shortly appeare.	As they heard these things, he proceeded to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they supposed that the kingdom of God was to appear immediately.	While they were listening to this, he went on to tell them a parable, because he was near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at once.
12	He sayde therfore: A certayne noble man went into a farre countrey, to receaue for hym selfe a kyngdome, and to come agayne.	He said therefore, “A nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and then return.	He said: “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to have himself appointed king and then to return.
13	And he called his ten seruauntes, & deliuered the ten peeces of money, saying vnto them, Occupie tyl I come.	Calling ten of his servants, he gave them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Engage in business until I come.’	So he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. ‘Put this money to work,’ he said, ‘until I come back.’
14	But his citezins hated hym, and sent a message after hym, saying: We wyll not haue this man to raigne ouer vs.	But his citizens hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We do not want this man to reign over us.’	“But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We don’t want this man to be our king.’
15	And it came to passe, that whe he had receaued his kyngdome and returned, he commaunded these seruauntes to be called vnto him, to whom he had geuen the money, to wyt howe muche euery man had done in occupying.	When he returned, having received the kingdom, he ordered these servants to whom he had given the money to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by doing business.	“He was made king, however, and returned home. Then he sent for the servants to whom he had given the money, in order to find out what they had gained with it.
16	Then came the first, saying: Lorde thy peece hath gayned ten peeces.	The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten minas more.’	“The first one came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned ten more.’
17	And he sayde vnto hym: Well thou good seruaunt, because thou hast ben faythfull in a very litle thing, haue thou aucthoritie ouer ten cities.	And he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.’	“’Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. ‘Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.’
18	And the seconde came, saying: Thy peece hath encreased fiue peeces.	And the second came, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made five minas.’	“The second came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned five more.’
19	And to the same he sayde, be thou also ruler ouer fyue cities.	And he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’	“His master answered, ‘You take charge of five cities.’
20	And another came, saying: Lorde beholde here is thy peece, whiche I haue layed vp in a napkin.	Then another came, saying, ‘Lord, here is your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief;	“Then another servant came and said, ‘Sir, here is your mina; I have kept it laid away in a piece of cloth.
21	For I feared thee, because thou art a strayte man: Thou takest vp that thou laydest not downe, & reapest that thou dyddest not sowe.	for I was afraid of you, because you are a severe man. You take what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.’	I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take out what you did not put in and reap what you did not sow.’
22	He sayth vnto hym: Of thyne owne mouth wyll I iudge thee, thou euyll seruaunt. Knewest thou that I am a straite man, taking vp that I layed not downe, & reapyng that I dyd not sowe:	He said to him, ‘I will condemn you with your own words, you wicked servant! You knew that I was a severe man, taking what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow?	“His master replied, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you wicked servant! You knew, did you, that I am a hard man, taking out what I did not put in, and reaping what I did not sow?
23	And wherfore gauest not thou my money into the banke, and at my commyng I myght haue required myne owne with vauntage?	Why then did you not put my money in the bank, and at my coming I might have collected it with interest?’	Why then didn’t you put my money on deposit, so that when I came back, I could have collected it with interest?’
24	And he sayde vnto them that stoode by: Take from hym that peece, and geue it to hym that hath ten peeces.	And he said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina from him, and give it to the one who has the ten minas.’	“Then he said to those standing by, ‘Take his mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’
25	And they sayde vnto hym: Lorde he hath ten peeces.	And they said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’	“’Sir,’ they said, ‘he already has ten!’
26	For I say vnto you, that vnto euery one which hath, shalbe geuen: and fro hym that hath not, shalbe taken away euen that he hath.	‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.	“He replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away.
27	Moreouer, those mine enemies, which woulde not that I shoulde raigne ouer the, bring hyther, & slea them before me.	But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them before me.’”	But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”
28	And when he hadde thus spoken, he went foorth before, ascending vp to Hierusalem.	And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.	After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

30	Saying: Go ye into the towne which is ouer agaynst you, into the whiche, assoone as ye are come, ye shall fynde a coult tyed, wheron yet neuer man sate: loose hym, and bryng hym hyther.	saying, “Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here.	“Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here.
31	And yf any man aske you, why do ye loose hym, thus shall ye say vnto hym: because the Lorde hath neede of hym.	If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say this: ‘The Lord has need of it.’”	If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32	They that were sent, went their way, & founde euen as he had said vnto them.	So those who were sent went away and found it just as he had told them.	Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them.
33	And as they were a loosyng the coult, the owners therof said vnto them, why loose ye the coult?	And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”	As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34	And they sayde: For the Lorde hath neede of hym.	And they said, “The Lord has need of it.”	They replied, “The Lord needs it.”
35	And they brought hym to Iesus, and cast their rayment on the coult, and set Iesus theron.	And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it.	They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it.

37	And when he was nowe come nye to the going downe of the mount Oliuete, the whole multitude of the disciples began to reioyce, and to prayse God with a loude voyce, for all the miracles that they had seene.

Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”	“Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
39	And some of the Pharisees of the companie sayde vnto hym: Maister, rebuke thy disciples.	And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”	Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”
40	He saide vnto them: I tell you, that if these holde their peace, then shall the stones crye.	He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”	“I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”

42	Saying: If thou haddest knowen those thynges whiche belong vnto thy peace, euen in this thy day: But nowe are they hyd from thyne eyes.	saying, “Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.	and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.
43	For the dayes shall come vpon thee, that thyne enemies also shall caste a banke about thee, and compasse thee rounde, and kepe thee in on euery syde:	For the days will come upon you, when your enemies will set up a barricade around you and surround you and hem you in on every side	The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.
44	And make thee euen with ye grounde, and thy chyldren which are in thee: and they shall not leaue in thee one stone vpo another, because thou knowest not the tyme of thy visitation.	and tear you down to the ground, you and your children within you. And they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know the time of your visitation.”	They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”
