19:2  And lo! a man, Zacchaeus by name, and this was [and he was] a prince of publicans, and he was rich.
19:3  And he sought to see Jesus, who he was, and he might not, for the people [for the company of people], for he was little in stature.
19:4  And he ran before, and ascended [up] into a sycamore tree, to see him; for he was to pass from thence [for he was to pass thence].

19:15  And it was done, that he turned again, when he had taken the kingdom; and he commanded his servants to be called, to which he had given money, to know [to whom he gave money, that he should know], how much each had won by chaffering.
19:16  And the first came, and said [saying], Lord, thy bezant hath won ten bezants.

19:21  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.
19:22  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?
19:23  and why hast thou not given my money to the board, and I coming should have asked it with usuries? [and why hast thou not given my money to the board, that and I coming should have received it soothly with usuries?]
19:24  And he said to men standing nigh, Take away from him the bezant, and give ye to him that hath ten bezants.
19:25  And they said to him, Lord, he hath ten bezants.
19:26  And I say to you, to each man that hath, it shall be given, and he shall increase [and he shall abound]; but from him that hath not, also that thing that he hath, shall be taken of him [shall be taken from him].
19:27  Nevertheless bring ye hither those mine enemies, that would not that I reigned on them [that would not me to reign upon them], and slay ye before me.

19:31  And if any man ask you, why ye untie, thus ye shall say to him, For the Lord desireth his work.
19:32  And they that were sent, went forth, and found as he said to them, a colt standing.
19:33  And when they untied the colt, the lords of it said to them, What untie ye the colt? [Soothly them untying the colt, the lords of him said, Why untie ye the colt?]
19:34  And they said, For the Lord hath need to him.
19:35  And they led him to Jesus; and they casted their clothes on the colt, and set Jesus on him.
19:36  And when he went, they spreaded their clothes in the way.

19:43  But days shall come in thee, and thine enemies shall environ thee with a pale, and they shall go about thee, and make thee strait on all sides.
19:44  and [they shall] cast thee down to the earth, and thy sons that be in thee [and thy children that be in thee]; and they shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone, for thou hast not known the time of thy visitation.

19:46  and said [saying] to them, It is written, That mine house is an house of prayer, but ye have made it a den of thieves.
