Luke 19:18-40 in English

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Thy pound, Lord, hath made five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said unto him also, Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I kept laid up in a napkin:

²¹ for I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that which thou layedst not down, and reapest that which thou didst not sow.

²² He saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up that which I laid not down, and reaping that which I did not sow;

²³ then wherefore gavest thou not my money into the bank, and I at my coming should have required it with interest?

²⁴ And he said unto them that stood by, Take away from him the pound, and give it unto him that hath the ten pounds.

²⁵ And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.

²⁶ I say unto you, that unto every one that hath shall be given; but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him.

²⁷ But these mine enemies, that would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

²⁸ And when he had thus spoken, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when he drew nigh unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples,

³⁰ saying, Go your way into the village over against you; in which as ye enter ye shall find a colt tied, whereon no man ever yet sat: loose him, and bring him.

³¹ And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say, The Lord hath need of him.

³² And they that were sent went away, 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 threw their garments upon the colt, and set Jesus thereon.

³⁶ And as he went, they spread their garments in the way.

³⁷ And as he was now drawing nigh, even 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 which they had seen;

³⁸ saying, Blessed is 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 the multitude said unto him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ And he answered and said, I tell you that, if these shall hold their peace, the stones will cry out.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

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.

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:

²³ Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

²⁴ And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵ (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

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.

²⁷ But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

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, 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.

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.

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, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

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.

²³ Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

²⁴ And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵ (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

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.

²⁷ But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

²⁵ And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.

²⁶ I say unto you, that unto every one that hath shall be given; but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him.

²⁷ Howbeit these mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

²⁸ And when he had thus spoken, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when he drew nigh unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called the mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciples,

³⁰ saying, Go your way into the village over against you; in the which as ye enter ye shall find a colt tied, whereon no man ever yet sat: loose him, and bring him.

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 threw their garments upon the colt, and set Jesus thereon.

³⁶ And as he went, they spread their garments in the way.

³⁷ And as he was now drawing nigh, even 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 which they had seen;

³⁸ saying, Blessed is 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 the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ And he answered and said, I tell you that, if these shall hold their peace, the stones will cry out.

¹⁸ Then the second servant came and said, ‘Sir, with your one coin I have earned five more coins!’

¹⁹ He said to that servant similarly, ‘ Good! I will give you authority to rule five cities.’

²⁰ Then another servant came. He said, ‘Sir, here is your coin. I wrapped it in a napkin and put it away, so that nothing would happen to it.

²¹ I did that because I was afraid of what you would do to me if the business failed. I know you are a man who does not do foolish things with your money. You even take from others money that does not really belong to you, like a farmer who harvests grain from another man's field where he did not even do the planting.’

²² The king said to that servant, ‘You wicked servant! I will condemn you by the very words MTY that you have just now spoken. ◄You know that I do not do foolish things with my money./Did you not know that I do not do foolish things with my money?► RHQ You said that I even take from others money that does not really belong to me, like a farmer who harvests grain from another man's field where he did not even do the planting.

²³ So ◄you should at least have given my money to money lenders!/why did you not at least give my money to bankers?► RHQ Then when I returned I could have collected that amount plus the interest it would have earned!’

²⁴ Then the king said to those who were standing near, ‘Take the coin from him and give it to the servant who has ten coins!’

²⁵ They protested, ‘But Sir, he already has ten coins!’

²⁶ But the king said, ‘I tell you this: To the people who use well what they have received, more will be given { I will give more}. But from the people who do not use well what they have received, even what they already have will be taken away { I will take away even what they already have}.

²⁷ Now, as for those enemies of mine who did not want me to rule over them, bring them here and execute them while I am watching!’”

²⁸ After Jesus said those things, he continued on the road up to Jerusalem, going ahead of his disciples.

²⁹ When they got near Bethphage and Bethany villages, near the hill that is called {that they call} Olive Tree Hill,

³⁰ he said to two of his disciples, “Go to the village just ahead of you. As you two enter it, you will see a young animal that no one has ever ridden, that has been {someone has} tied up. Untie it and bring it to me.

³¹ If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him, ‘The Lord needs it.’”

³² So the two disciples went to the village and found the animal, just like he had told them.

³³ As they were untying it, its owners said to them, “Why are you two untying that young animal?”

³⁴ They replied, “The Lord needs it.” So the owners said that they could take it.

³⁵ The two disciples brought the animal to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the animal's back for him to sit on and helped Jesus get on it.

³⁶ Then as he rode along, others spread their cloaks on the road to honor him.

³⁷ As they came near to Jerusalem, on the road that descends from Olive Tree Hill, the whole crowd of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God loudly for all the great miracles that they had seen Jesus do.

³⁸ They were saying things like, “May the Lord God bless our king who comes representing MTY him!” “May there be peace between God in heaven and us his people!” “May everyone praise God!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees who were in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples for saying things like that!”

⁴⁰ He replied, “I tell you this: If these people would be silent, the stones themselves would shout to praise me!”

¹⁸ “The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’

¹⁹ “So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’

²⁰ Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,

²¹ for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn’t lay down, and reap that which you didn’t sow.’

²² “He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down and reaping that which I didn’t sow.

²³ Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’

²⁴ He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’

²⁵ “They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’

²⁶ ‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.

²⁷ But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”

²⁸ Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ When he came near to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ saying, “Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, which no man has ever sat upon. Untie it and bring it.

³¹ If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”

³² Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them.

³³ As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

³⁴ They said, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵ Then they brought it to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Jesus on them.

³⁶ As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.

³⁷ As he was now getting near, 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 which they had seen,

³⁸ saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”

¹⁸ “The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’

³⁸ saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”

¹⁸ And another came, saying, Your pound has made five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said, You will be ruler over five towns.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, here is your pound, which I put away in a cloth;

²¹ Because I was in fear of you, for you are a hard man: you take up what you have not put down, and get in grain where you have not put seed.

²² He said to him, By the words of your mouth you will be judged, you bad servant. You had knowledge that I am a hard man, taking up what I have not put down and getting in grain where I have not put seed;

²³ Why then did you not put my money in a bank, so that when I came I would get it back with interest?

²⁴ And he said to the others who were near, Take the pound away from him, and give it to the man who has ten.

²⁵ And they say to him, Lord, he has ten pounds.

²⁶ And I say to you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.

²⁷ And as for those who were against me, who would not have me for their ruler, let them come here, and be put to death before me.

²⁸ And when he had said this, he went on in front of them, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came about that when he got near Beth-phage and Bethany by the mountain which is named the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of the disciples,

³⁰ Saying, Go into the little town in front of you, and on going in you will see a young ass fixed with a cord, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose and take him.

³¹ And if anyone says to you, Why are you taking him? say, The Lord has need of him.

³² And those whom he sent went away, and it was as he said.

³³ And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?

³⁴ And they said, The Lord has need of him.

³⁵ And they took him to Jesus, and they put their clothing on the ass, and Jesus got on to him.

³⁶ And while he went on his way they put their clothing down on the road in front of him.

³⁷ And when he came near the foot of the Mountain of Olives, all the disciples with loud voices gave praise to God with joy, because of all the great works which they had seen;

³⁸ Saying, A blessing on the King who comes in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven and glory in the highest.

³⁹ And some of the Pharisees among the people said to him, Master, make your disciples be quiet.

⁴⁰ And he said in answer, I say to you, if these men keep quiet, the very stones will be crying out.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, My Lord, thy mina has made five minas.

¹⁹ And he said also to this one, And thou, be over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, My Lord, lo, there is thy mina, which I have kept laid up in a towel.

²¹ For I feared thee because thou art a harsh man: thou takest up what thou hast not laid down, and thou reapest what thou hast not sowed.

²² He says to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked bondman: thou knewest that I am a harsh man, taking up what I have not laid down and reaping what I have not sowed.

²³ And why didst thou not give my money to the bank; and I should have received it, at my coming, with interest?

²⁴ And he said to those that stood by, Take from him the mina and give it to him who has the ten minas.

²⁵ And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.

²⁶ For I say unto you, that to every one that has shall be given; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him.

²⁷ Moreover those mine enemies, who would not have me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.

²⁸ And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany at the mountain called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ saying, Go into the village over against you, in which ye will find, on entering it, a colt tied up, on which no child of man ever sat at any time: loose it and lead it here.

³¹ And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose it? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord has need of it.

³² And they that were sent, having gone their way, found as he had said to them.

³³ And as they were loosing the colt, its masters said to them, Why loose ye the colt?

³⁴ And they said, Because the Lord has need of it.

³⁵ And they led it to Jesus; and having cast their own garments on the colt, they put Jesus on it.

³⁶ And as he went, they strewed their clothes in the way.

³⁷ And as he drew near, already at the descent of the mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began, rejoicing, to praise God with a loud voice for all the works of power which they had seen,

³⁸ saying, Blessed the King that comes in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

³⁹ And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ And he answering said to them, I say unto you, If these shall be silent, the stones will cry out.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying: Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said to him: Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying: Lord, behold here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin;

²¹ For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and thou reapest that which thou didst not sow.

²² He saith to him: Out of thy own mouth I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping that which I did not sow:

²³ And why then didst thou not give my money into the bank, that at my coming, I might have exacted it with usury?

²⁴ And he said to them that stood by: Take the pound away from him, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵ And they said to him: Lord, he hath ten pounds.

²⁶ But I say to you, that to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: and from him that hath not, even that which he hath, shall be taken from him.

²⁷ But as for those my enemies, who would not have me reign over them, bring them hither, and kill them before me.

²⁸ And having said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethania, unto the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ Saying: Go into the town which is over against you, at your entering into which you shall find the colt of an ass tied, on which no man ever hath sitten: loose him, and bring him hither.

³¹ And if any man shall ask you: Why do you loose him? you shall say thus unto him: Because the Lord hath need of his service.

³² And they that were sent, went their way, and found the colt standing, as he had said unto them.

³³ And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said to them: Why loose you the colt?

³⁴ But they said: Because the Lord hath need of him.

³⁵ And they brought him to Jesus. And casting their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.

³⁶ And as he went, they spread their clothes underneath in the way.

³⁷ And when he was now coming near the descent of mount Olivet, the whole multitude of his disciples began with joy to praise God with a loud voice, for all the mighty works they had seen,

³⁸ Saying: Blessed be the king who cometh in the name of the Lord, peace in heaven, and glory on high!

³⁹ And some of the Pharisees, from amongst the multitude, said to him: Master, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ To whom he said: I say to you, that if these shall hold their peace, the stones will cry out.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, ‘Master, your mina made five minas.’

¹⁹ Likewise he said to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’

²⁰ “Then another came, saying, ‘Master, behold your mina, which I had laid away in a handkerchief.

²¹ For I feared you, because you are a harsh man. You take up what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.’

²² And he said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was a harsh man, taking up what I did not deposit, and reaping what I did not sow.

²³ Why then did you not give my money to a bank, and when I came, I would have collected it with interest?’

²⁴ “And he said to those standing by, ‘Take the mina away from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.’

²⁵ But they said to him, ‘Master, he has ten minas.’

²⁶ ‘For I say to you that to everyone who has, more shall be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.

²⁷ Nevertheless bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.’ ”

²⁸ And having said these things, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, as He drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, to the mountain which is called Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples,

³⁰ saying, “Go into the village opposite you, in which when you enter you will find a colt tied up, on which no one of men has ever sat. Loose him and bring him here.

³¹ And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you loosing him?’ thus you shall say to him, ‘Because the Lord has need of him.’ ”

³² So those who were sent departed and found it just as He told them.

³³ But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, “Why are you loosing the colt?”

³⁴ And they said, “The Lord has need of him.”

³⁵ Then they brought him to Jesus. And when they threw their own clothes on the colt, they set Jesus on him.

³⁶ And as He went, they were spreading their clothes under Him on the road.

³⁷ And as He was approaching 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 miracles which they had seen,

³⁸ saying: “ ‘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 said to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”

⁴⁰ But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”

¹⁸ And the second one came and said, ‘Master, your mina made five minas.’

¹⁹ Likewise he said to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’

²⁰ Then a different one came, saying: ‘Master, here is your mina, that I kept laid away in a piece of cloth

²¹ —I feared you because you are a hard man, removing what you did not place, and reaping what you did not sow.’

²² So he said to him: ‘I will judge you out of your own mouth, you wicked slave! You knew that I am a hard man, removing what I did not place, and reaping what I did not sow.

²³ Why then didn't you put my money on deposit, and upon coming I would have collected it with interest?’

²⁴ And to those standing by he said, ‘Take the mina from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’

²⁵ (They even said to him, ‘Master, he already has ten minas!’)

²⁶ ‘Indeed I tell you, to everyone who has, more will be given; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.

²⁷ But as for those enemies of mine who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them in front of me!’ ”

²⁸ Having said these things, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ When He drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mountain called ‘of Olives’, it happened like this: He sent two of His disciples,

³⁰ saying: “Go to the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no man ever yet sat. Untie and bring it.

³¹ And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ just say this to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’ ”

³² So those who were sent went and found it just like He told them.

³³ As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

³⁴ So they said, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵ Then they brought it to Jesus; and throwing their own clothes on the colt, they placed Jesus on it.

³⁶ And as He went along people were spreading their clothes on the road.

³⁷ Then, as He was approaching 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 they had seen,

³⁸ saying: “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees said to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ In answer He said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the very stones would cry out!”

¹⁸ The second servant came in and said, ‘Lord, your money has earned five times as much.’

¹⁹ ‘I'm placing you in charge of five cities,’ said the king.

²⁰ Another servant came in and said, ‘Lord, look, here's your money back. I kept it safe, wrapped up in a cloth.

²¹ I was afraid of you because you're a hard man. You take what doesn't belong to you, and you harvest what you didn't plant.’

²² ‘I'll judge you by your own words,’ the king replied. ‘You know I'm a hard man, who as you say, takes what doesn't belong to me, and I harvest what I didn't plant.

²³ Why then didn't you deposit my money in the bank, so that when I returned I could have had my money with interest?’

²⁴ The king told those who were standing beside him, ‘Take the money away from him, and give it to the one who made ten times as much.’

²⁵ ‘But master, he already has ten times as much,’ they replied.

²⁶ The king said, ‘I tell you, to those who have, more will be given; but those who do not have, even what they have will be taken away from them.

²⁷ And as for my enemies who didn't want me to be king over them, bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”

²⁸ After he'd finished telling them this story, Jesus left for Jerusalem, walking on ahead.

²⁹ As he approached Bethphage and Bethany on the Mount of Olives, he sent two disciples, telling them:

³⁰ “Go to the village farther on. As you enter it you'll find a colt tied up that no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here.

³¹ If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ just say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”

³² So the two disciples went and found that everything was just as Jesus had said.

³³ As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

³⁴ The disciples replied, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵ They brought the colt to Jesus. Then they threw their cloaks over it, and sat Jesus on its back.

³⁶ As he rode along, people spread their cloaks on the road.

³⁷ As he approached Jerusalem, right where the road goes down from the Mount of Olives, the crowd of disciples all began shouting joyful praises to God at the top of their voices for all the miracles they had seen.

³⁸ “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord,” they shouted. “Peace in heaven and glory in highest heaven.”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees who were in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, stop your disciples from saying that.”

⁴⁰ But Jesus replied, “I tell you that if they kept quiet then the stones will shout!”

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy piece hath encreased fiue pieces.

¹⁹ And to the same he sayd, Be thou also ruler ouer fiue cities.

²⁰ So the other came, and sayd, Lord, beholde thy piece, which I haue laide vp in a napkin:

²¹ For I feared thee, because thou art a straight man: thou takest vp, that thou layedst not downe, and reapest that thou diddest not sowe.

²² Then he sayde vnto him, Of thine owne mouth will I iudge thee, O euill seruant. Thou knewest that I am a straight man, taking vp that I layd not downe, and reaping that I did not sowe.

²³ Wherefore then gauest not thou my money into the banke, that at my coming I might haue required it with vantage?

²⁴ And he sayd to them that stoode by, Take from him that piece, and giue it him that hath ten pieces.

²⁵ (And they sayd vnto him, Lord, hee hath ten pieces.)

²⁶ For I say vnto you, that vnto all them that haue, it shalbe giuen: and from him that hath not, euen that he hath, shalbe taken from him.

²⁷ Moreouer, those mine enemies, which would not that I should reigne ouer them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

²⁸ And when he had thus spoken, he went forth before, ascending vp to Hierusalem.

²⁹ And it came to passe, when hee was come neere to Bethphage, and Bethania, besides the mount which is called the mount of Oliues, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ Saying, Goe ye to the towne which is before you, wherein, assoone as ye are come, ye shall finde a colte tied, whereon neuer man sate: loose him, and bring him hither.

³¹ And if any man aske you, why ye loose him, thus shall ye say vnto him, Because the Lord hath neede of him.

³² So they that were sent, went their way, and found it as he had sayd vnto them.

³³ And as they were loosing the colte, the owners thereof sayd vnto them, Why loose ye the colte?

³⁴ And they sayd, The Lord hath neede of him.

³⁵ So they brought him to Iesus, and they cast their garments on the colte, and set Iesus thereon.

³⁶ And as he went, they spred their clothes in the way.

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

³⁸ Saying, Blessed be the King that commeth in the Name of the Lord: peace in heauen, and glory in the highest places.

³⁹ Then some of the Pharises of the companie sayd vnto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ But he answered, and sayd vnto them, I tell you, that if these should holde their peace, the stones would crie.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

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.

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:

²³ wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

²⁴ And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵ (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

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.

²⁷ But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

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, 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.

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.

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, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said also to this servant, And be thou over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, behold thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin.

²¹ For I feared thee, because thou art a harsh man; thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.

²² He saith to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked servant! thou knewest that I was a harsh man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow;

²³ why then didst thou not put my money into a bank? Then I at my coming might have received it back with interest.

²⁴ And he said to them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath the ten pounds.

²⁵ (And they said to him, He hath ten pounds, Lord.)

²⁶ I say to you, that to every one who hath, will be given; but from him that hath not, even what he hath will be taken away.

²⁷ But as for those enemies of mine, who would not that I should reign over them, bring them here, and slay them before me.

²⁸ And when he had thus spoken, he went forward, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ saying, Go to the village over against us; on entering which ye will find a colt tied, whereon no man ever sat; and loose, and bring it.

³¹ And if any one ask you, Why are ye loosing it? ye shall say thus, The Lord hath need of it.

³² And they who were sent went and found just as he told them.

³³ And as they were loosing the colt, its owners said to them, Why are ye loosing the colt?

³⁴ And they said, The Lord hath need of it.

³⁵ And they brought it to Jesus; and having thrown their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.

³⁶ And as he went on, they spread their garments in the road.

³⁷ And as he was drawing near, just 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 miracles which they had seen;

³⁸ saying, Blessed be the King in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heavens!

³⁹ And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ And he answering said, I tell you, that if these are silent, the stones will cry out.

¹⁸ When the second came, he said ‘Your ten pounds, Sir, have produced fifty.’

¹⁹ So the master said to him ‘And you I appoint over five towns.’

²⁰ Another servant also came and said ‘Sir, here are your ten pounds; I have kept them put away in a handkerchief.

²¹ For I was afraid of you, because you are a stern man. You take what you have not planted, and reap what you have not sown.’

²² The master answered ‘Out of your own mouth I judge you, you worthless servant. You knew that I am a stern man, that I take what I have not planted, and reap what I have not sown?

²³ Then why didn't you put my money into a bank? And I, on my return, could have claimed it with interest.

²⁴ Take away from him the ten pounds,’ he said to those standing by, ‘and give them to the one who has the hundred.’

²⁵ ‘But, Sir,’ they said, ‘he has a hundred pounds already!’

²⁶ ‘I tell you,’ he answered, ‘that, to him who has, more will be given, but, from him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away.

²⁷ But as for my enemies, these men who would not have me as their king, bring them here and put them to death in my presence.’”

²⁸ After saying this, Jesus went on in front, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ It was when Jesus had almost reached Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, that he sent on two of the disciples.

³⁰ “Go to the village facing us,” he said, “and, when you get there, you will find a foal tethered, which no one has yet ridden; untie it and lead it here.

³¹ And, if anybody asks you ‘Why are you untying it?,’ you are to say this — ‘The Master wants it.’”

³² So the two who were sent went and found it as Jesus had told them.

³³ While they were untying the foal, the owners asked them — “Why are you untying the foal?”

³⁴ And the two disciples answered — “The Master wants it.”

³⁵ Then they led it back to Jesus, and threw their cloaks on the foal and put Jesus on it.

³⁶ As he went along, the people kept spreading their cloaks in the road.

³⁷ When he had almost reached the place where the road led down the Mount of Olives, everyone of the many disciples began in their joy to praise God loudly for all the miracles that they had seen:

³⁸ “Blessed is He who comes — Our king — in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, And glory on high.”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, restrain your disciples.”

⁴⁰ But Jesus answered, “I tell you that if they are silent, the stones will call out.”

¹⁸ When the second came, he said ‘Your ten pounds, Sir, have produced fifty.’

¹⁹ So the master said to him ‘And you I appoint over five towns.’

²⁰ Another servant also came and said ‘Sir, here are your ten pounds; I have kept them put away in a handkerchief.

²¹ For I was afraid of you, because you are a stern man. You take what you have not planted, and reap what you have not sown.’

²² The master answered ‘Out of your own mouth I judge you, you worthless servant. You knew that I am a stern man, that I take what I have not planted, and reap what I have not sown?

²³ Then why didn't you put my money into a bank? And I, on my return, could have claimed it with interest.

²⁴ Take away from him the ten pounds,’ he said to those standing by, ‘and give them to the one who has the hundred.’

²⁵ ‘But, Sir,’ they said, ‘he has a hundred pounds already!’

²⁶ ‘I tell you,’ he answered, ‘that, to him who has, more will be given, but, from him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away.

²⁷ But as for my enemies, these men who would not have me as their king, bring them here and put them to death in my presence.’”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, restrain your disciples.”

⁴⁰ But Jesus answered, “I tell you that if they are silent, the stones will call out.”

¹⁸ “The second came, saying, ‘Your mina 50 sheckles; 1.25 lb; 0.57 kg, Lord, has made five minas 250 sheckles; 6.25 lb; 2.835 kg.’

¹⁹ “So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’

²⁰ Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina 50 sheckles; 1.25 lb; 0.57 kg, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,

²¹ for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn’t lay down, and reap that which you didn’t sow.’

²² “He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down, and reaping that which I didn’t sow.

²³ Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’

²⁴ He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina 50 sheckles; 1.25 lb; 0.57 kg away from him, and give it to him who has the ten minas 500 sheckles; 12.5 lb; 5.67 kg.’

²⁵ “They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’

²⁶ ‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.

²⁷ But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”

²⁸ Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem City of peace.

²⁹ When he came near to Bethsphage and Bethany House of affliction, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ saying, “Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, whereon no man ever yet sat. Untie it, and bring it.

³¹ If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”

³² Those who were sent went away, and found things just as he had told them.

³³ As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

³⁴ They said, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵ They brought it to Yeshua Salvation. They threw their cloaks on the colt, and set Yeshua Salvation on them.

³⁶ As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.

³⁷ As he was now getting near, 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 which they had seen,

³⁸ saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of MarYah Master Yahweh! Shalom ·Complete peace· in heaven, and glory in the highest places!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees Separated from the multitude said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”

¹⁸ And the other came sayinge: Lorde thy poude hath encreased fyve pounde.

¹⁹ And to the same he sayde: and be thou also ruler ouer fyve cities.

²⁰ And the thyrde came and sayde: Lorde beholde here thy pounde which I have kepte in a napkyn

²¹ for I feared the because thou arte a strayte man: thou takest vp that thou laydest not doune and repest that thou dyddest not sowe.

²² And he sayde vnto him: Of thine awne mouth iudge I the thou evyll servaunt. knewest thou that I am a strayte man takinge vp that I layde not doune and repinge that I dyd not sowe?

²³ Wherfore then gavest not thou my money into the banke that at my cominge I might have required myne awne with vauntage?

²⁴ And he sayde to them that stode by: take from him that pounde and geve it him that hath ten pounde.

²⁵ And they sayd vnto him: Lorde he hath ten pounde.

²⁶ I saye vnto you that vnto all the that have it shalbe geve: and from him that hath not even that he hath shalbe taken from him.

²⁷ Moreover those myne enemys which wolde not that I shuld raigne over them bringe hidder and slee them before me.

²⁸ And when he had thus spoken he proceded forthe before a ssendinge vp to Ierusalem.

²⁹ And it fortuned when he was come nye to Bethphage and Bethany besydes moute olivete he sent two of his disciples

³⁰ sayinge: Goo ye in to the toune which is over agaynste you. In the which assone as ye are come ye shall finde a colte tyed wheron yet never man sate. Lowse him and bringe him hider.

³¹ And if eny man axe you why that ye loowse him: thus saye vnto him the lorde hath nede of him.

³² They that were sent went their waye and founde even as he had sayde vnto them.

³³ And as they were aloosinge the coolte the owners sayde vnto the: why lowse ye the coolte?

³⁴ And they sayde: for the Lorde hath nede of him.

³⁵ And they brought him to Iesus. And they cast their raymet on the colte and set Iesus theron.

³⁶ And as he wet they spredde their clothes in the waye.

³⁷ And when he was now come wheare he shuld goo doune from the moute olivete the whole multitude of the disciples began to reioyce and to lawde God with a loude voyce for all the miracles that they had sene

³⁸ sayinge: Blessed be the kynge that cometh in the name of the Lorde: peace in heaven and glory in the hyest.

³⁹ And some of the Pharises of the company sayde vnto him: Master rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ He answered and sayde vnto the: I tell you yf these shuld holde their peace the stones wold crye.

¹⁸ The second came, saying, 'Your mina, lord, has made five minas.'

¹⁹ The nobleman said to him, 'You take charge over five cities.'

²⁰ Another came, saying, 'Lord, here is your mina, which I kept safely in a cloth,

²¹ for I was afraid of you, because you are a demanding person. You take up what you did not put in, and you reap what you did not sow.'

²² The nobleman said to him, 'By your own words I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I am a demanding person, that I take up what I did not put in, and that I reaped what I did not sow.

²³ Then why did you not put my money in the bank, so that when I returned I would have collected it with interest?'

²⁴ The nobleman said to them that stood by, 'Take away from him the mina, and give it to him that has the ten minas.'

²⁵ They said to him, 'Lord, he has ten minas.'

²⁶ 'I say to you, that everyone who has will be given more, but from him that has not, even that which he has will be taken away.

²⁷ But these enemies of mine, those who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and kill them before me.'”

²⁸ When he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ It came about that when he came near to Bethphage and Bethany, to the hill that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples,

³⁰ saying, “Go into the next village. As you enter, you will find a colt that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it to me.

³¹ If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' say, 'The Lord has need of it.'”

³² Those who were sent went and found the colt just as Jesus had told them.

³³ As they were untying the colt, the owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

³⁴ They said, “The Lord has need of it.”

³⁵ They brought it to Jesus, and they threw their cloaks upon the colt and set Jesus on it.

³⁶ As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.

³⁷ As he was now approaching the place where the Mount of Olives descends, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen,

³⁷ As he was now getting near, 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 which they had seen,

³⁸ saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”

¹⁸ And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹ And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰ And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

²¹ For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up what thou layedst not down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.

²² And he saith to him, Out of thy own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest me to be an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow:

²³ Why then gavest thou not my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required my own with interest?

²⁴ And he said to them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵ (And they said to him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

²⁶ For I say to you, That to every one who hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even what he hath shall be taken away from him.

²⁷ But those my enemies, who would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

²⁸ And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending towards Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when he had come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ Saying, Go ye into the village over against you ; in which at your entering ye will find a colt tied, on which yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither .

³¹ And if any man shall ask you, Why do ye loose him ? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord hath need of him.

³² And they that were sent, went and found even as he had said to them.

³³ And as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to 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 upon him.

³⁶ And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.

³⁷ And when he had 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 to him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

⁴⁰ And he answered and said to them, I tell you, that if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

¹⁸ “The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’

¹⁹ “So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’

²⁰ Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,

²¹ for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn’t lay down, and reap that which you didn’t sow.’

²² “He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down and reaping that which I didn’t sow.

²³ Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’

²⁴ He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’

²⁵ “They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’

²⁶ ‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.

²⁷ But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”

²⁸ Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ When he came near to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ saying, “Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, which no man has ever sat upon. Untie it and bring it.

³¹ If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”

³² Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them.

³³ As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

³⁴ They said, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵ Then they brought it to Yeshua. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Yeshua on them.

³⁶ As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.

³⁷ As he was now getting near, 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 which they had seen,

³⁸ saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Rabbi, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”

¹⁸ “The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’

¹⁹ “So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’

²⁰ Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,

³⁹ Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Rabbi, rebuke your disciples!”

⁴⁰ He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”

¹⁸ And the tother came, and said, Lord, thy bezant hath made five bezants.

¹⁹ And to this he said, And be thou on five cities.

²⁰ And the third came, and said, Lord, lo! thy bezant, that I had, put up or kept in a sudarium, or sweating cloth.

²¹ For I dreaded thee, for thou art an austere man; thou takest away that that thou settedest not, and thou reapest that that thou hast not sown.

²² He saith to him, Wicked servant, of thy mouth I deem thee. Knewest thou, that I am an austere man, taking away that thing that I setted not, and reaping that thing that I sowed not? or I have not sown?

²³ and why hast thou not given my money to the board, and I coming should have asked it or should have received it with usuries?

²⁴ And he said to men standing nigh, Take away from him the bezant, and give ye it to him that hath ten bezants.

²⁵ And they said to him, Lord, he hath ten bezants.

²⁶ And I say to you, to each man that hath, it shall be given, and he shall increase; but from him that hath not, also that thing that he hath, shall be taken of or from him.

²⁷ Nevertheless bring ye hither those mine enemies, that would not that I reigned on them, and slay ye before me.

²⁸ And when these things were said, he went before, and went up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it was done, when Jesus came nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount, that is called of Olivet, he sent his two disciples,

³⁰ and said, Go ye into the castle that is against you; into which as ye enter, ye shall find a colt of an ass tied, on which never man sat; untie ye him, and bring ye to me.

³¹ And if any man ask you, why ye untie, thus ye shall say to him, For the Lord desireth his work.

³² And they that were sent, went forth, and found as he said to them, a colt standing.

³³ And when they untied the colt, the lords of it said to them, What or Why untie ye the colt?

³⁴ And they said, For the Lord hath need to him.

³⁵ And they led him to Jesus; and they casted their clothes on the colt, and set or put Jesus on him.

³⁶ And when he went, they spreaded their clothes in the way.

³⁷ And when he came nigh to the coming down of the mount of Olivet, all the people that came down began to joy, and to praise God with great voice on all the virtues, that they had seen,

³⁸ and said, Blessed be the king, that cometh in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in high things.

³⁹ And some of the Pharisees of the people said to him, Master, blame thy disciples.

⁴⁰ And he said to them, I say to you, for if these be still, stones shall cry.

¹⁸ And the tother came, and said, Lord, thy bezant hath made five bezants. (And the next came, and said, Lord, thy coin hath earned five coins.)

¹⁹ And to this he said, And be thou on five cities. (And to him he said, And thou shalt be over five cities.)

²⁰ And the third came, and said, Lord, lo! thy bezant, (or Lord, behold! thy coin), that I had, put up or kept in a sudarium, or (a) sweating cloth, (or in a napkin).

²¹ For I dreaded thee, for thou art an austere man; thou takest away that that thou settedest not, and thou reapest that that thou hast not sown. (For I feared thee, for thou art a stern and a hard man; thou takest away that which thou hast not brought, and thou harvestest that which thou hast not sown.)

²² He saith to him, Wicked servant, of thy mouth I deem thee. Knewest thou, that I am an austere man, taking away that thing that I setted not, and reaping that thing that I sowed not or that I have not sown? (He said to him, Wicked servant, with the words of thy own mouth I shall judge thee. Knewest thou, that I am a stern and hard man, taking away that which I have not brought, and harvesting that which I have not sown?)

²³ and why hast thou not given my money to the board, and I coming should have asked (for) it or should have received it with usuries? (and why hast thou not given my money to the money-changers, and then when I came back, I would have received it with some interest?)

²⁴ And he said to (the) men standing nigh, Take away from him the bezant, and give ye it to him that hath ten bezants. (And he said to the men standing near, Take away the coin from him, and give it to him who hath ten coins.)

²⁵ And they said to him, Lord, he hath ten bezants, (or Lord, he hath ten coins!).

²⁶ And I say to you, to each man that hath, it shall be given, and he shall increase; but from him that hath not, also that thing that he hath, shall be taken of him or shall be taken from him.

²⁷ Nevertheless bring ye hither those (of) mine enemies, that would not that I reigned on them, and slay ye (them) before me. (And bring here those enemies of mine, who do not desire that I reign over them, or who do not want me to rule over them, and kill them before me.)

²⁸ And when these things were said or And these things said, he went before (or he went forth), and went up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it was done, when Jesus came nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount, that is called of Olivet (or at the Mount of Olives), he sent his two disciples,

³⁰ and said, Go ye into the castle that is against you (or Go into the village that is opposite you); into which as ye enter, ye shall find a colt of an ass tied, on which never (any) man sat; untie ye him, and bring ye (it) to me.

³¹ And if any man ask you, why ye untie (it), thus ye shall say to him, For the Lord desireth his work.

³² And they that were sent, went forth, and found as he said to them, a colt standing (there).

³³ And when they untied the colt, the lords of it said to them, What untie ye the colt? or Why untie ye the colt?

³⁴ And they said, For the Lord hath need to him (or For the Lord hath need of him).

³⁵ And they led him to Jesus; and they casted their clothes on the colt, and set or put Jesus on him. (And they led it to Jesus; and they threw their clothes onto the colt, and then put Jesus on it.)

³⁶ And when he went, they spreaded their clothes in the way. (And as he went, they spread their clothes on the way, or on the road.)

³⁷ And when now he came nigh to the coming down of the mount of Olivet, all the people that came down began to joy, and to praise God with (a) great voice on all the virtues, that they had seen, (And when he came near to the descent of the Mount of Olives, all the people who came down began to rejoice, and to praise God with loud voices, for all the works of power, or all the miracles, that they had seen,)

³⁸ and said, Blessed be the king, that cometh in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in high things.

³⁹ And some of the Pharisees of the people said to him, Master, blame thy disciples, (or Teacher, rebuke thy disciples).

⁴⁰ And he said to them, I say to you (or I tell you), for if these be still, (the) stones shall cry (out).

¹⁸ And the tother cam, and seide, Lord, thi besaunt hath maad fyue besauntis.

¹⁹ And to this he seide, And be thou on fyue citees.

²⁰ And the thridde cam, and seide, Lord, lo! thi besaunt, that Y hadde, put vp in a sudarie.

²⁶ And Y seie to you, to ech man that hath, it schal be youun, and he schal encreese; but fro him that hath not, also that thing that he hath, schal be takun of hym.

²⁷ Netheles brynge ye hidur tho myn enemyes, that wolden not that Y regnede on hem, and sle ye bifor me.

¹⁸ 'And the second came, saying, Sir, thy pound made five pounds;

¹⁹ and he said also to this one, And thou, become thou over five cities.

²⁰ 'And another came, saying, Sir, lo, thy pound, that I had lying away in a napkin;

²¹ for I was afraid of thee, because thou art an austere man; thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.

²² 'And he saith to him, Out of thy mouth I will judge thee, evil servant: thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow!

²³ and wherefore didst thou not give my money to the bank, and I, having come, with interest might have received it?

²⁴ 'And to those standing by he said, Take from him the pound, and give to him having the ten pounds —

²⁵ (and they said to him, Sir, he hath ten pounds) —

²⁶ for I say to you, that to every one having shall be given, and from him not having, also what he hath shall be taken from him,

²⁷ but those my enemies, who did not wish me to reign over them, bring hither and slay before me.'

²⁸ And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.

²⁹ And it came to pass, as he came nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, unto the mount called of the Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ having said, Go away to the village over-against, in which, entering into, ye shall find a colt bound, on which no one of men did ever sit, having loosed it, bring it;

³¹ and if any one doth question you, Wherefore do ye loose it? thus ye shall say to him — The Lord hath need of it.'

³² And those sent, having gone away, found according as he said to them,

³³ and while they are loosing the colt, its owners said unto them, 'Why loose ye the colt?'

³⁴ and they said, 'The Lord hath need of it;'

³⁵ and they brought it unto Jesus, and having cast their garments upon the colt, they did set Jesus upon it.

³⁶ And as he is going, they were spreading their garments in the way,

³⁷ and as he is coming nigh now, at the descent of the mount of the Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began rejoicing to praise God with a great voice for all the mighty works they had seen,

³⁸ saying, 'blessed is he who is coming, a king in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.'

³⁹ And certain of the Pharisees from the multitude said unto him, 'Teacher, rebuke thy disciples;'

⁴⁰ and he answering said to them, 'I say to you, that, if these shall be silent, the stones will cry out!'
