¹And he entered and was passing through Jericho.

¹O Jesus gelo ando Jericho, nakhlo anda foro.

²And behold, a man called by name Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich.

²Sas iek manush barvalo kai busholas Zacchaeus. Wo sas o baro mashkar le manush kai chidenas e taksa,

³And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the crowd, because he was little of stature.

³ai kado manush rodelas te zhanel kon si O Jesus; numa nashtilas katar o but narodo, ke tsinorho sas.

⁴And he ran on before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.

⁴Nashlo angle, ai anklisto pe ek khash kai busholas Sicamore te dikhel les; ke O Jesus sas te nakhel kotsar.

⁵And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to-day I must abide at thy house.

⁵Kana O Jesus areslo pe kodo than, vazdia le iakha opre, dikhlia les, ai phendia leske, "Zacchaeus, huli tele mai sigo, ke trobul adies te beshav ande cho kher."

⁶And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.

⁶O Zacchaeus hulisto sigo tele, ai premisardia les peste raduimasa.

⁷And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, He is gone in to lodge with a man that is a sinner.

⁷Ai kana le manush dikhle so kerdilia, denas pe duma, phenenas, "O Jesus zhal te beshel le manusha kai si bezexalo."

⁸And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have wrongfully exacted aught of any man, I restore fourfold.

⁸O Zacchaeus angla Jesus sa, ai phendia le Devleske, "Ashun Devla! Dav dopash anda murho barvalimos kal chorhe; ai te lem katar vari kon ande vari soste, dava les shtarvar mai but."

⁹And Jesus said unto him, To-day is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

⁹O Jesus phendia leske, "O skepimos avilo adies ande kado kher, ke vi kako si iek shav le Abrahamosko.

¹⁰For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost.

¹⁰Ke O Shav le Manushesko avilo te rodel ai te skepil kon sas xasardo."

¹¹And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and [because] they supposed that the kingdom of God was immediately to appear.

¹¹Sar le manush ashunenas, O Jesus phendia lenge ek paramichi, ke pasha Jerusalem sas, ai ke gindinaspe ke e amperetsia le Devleski sas te sikadiol strazo.

¹²He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

¹²No O Jesus phendia, "Iek manush barvalo gelotar ande them dur te keren anda leste amperato ai te avel palpale.

¹³And he called ten servants of his, and gave them ten pounds, and said unto them, Trade ye [herewith] till I come.

¹³Ai akhardia peske desh slugen, ai dia sakones iek galbano sumnakuno, ai phendia lenge, "Keren buchi kadale sumnakasa zhi kai avav."

¹⁴But his citizens hated him, and sent an ambassage after him, saying, We will not that this man reign over us.

¹⁴Numa le manush kodole manusheske gretsosarde les, ai trade vari kas te phenen leske, "Chi mangas kado manush te avela amaro amperato."

¹⁵And it came to pass, when he was come back again, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants, unto whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by trading.

¹⁵Kotse kai gelo kerde amperato anda leste, ai kana avilo palpale ande pesko them, wo akhardia le slugen kai dias len o sumnakai, wo manglia te zhanel sode mai but swako sluga sas les pala leski buchi.

¹⁶And the first came before him, saying, Lord, thy pound hath made ten pounds more.

¹⁶O pervo avilo ai phendia, "Gazda, nirisardem aver desh galbi le galbanosa kai dian ma.

¹⁷And he said unto him, Well done, thou good servant: because thou wast found faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.

¹⁷Ai o gazda phendia leske, "Mishto kerdian, lasho sluga; kai sanas lasho ande xantsi buchi, dava tu desh foruria te poronchis pe lende."

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

¹⁸O duito avilo ai phendia leske, "Gazda, nirisardem aver pansh galbi le galbanosa kai dian ma."

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

¹⁹O gazda phendia leske, "Vi tu poronchisa pe pansh foruria."

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

²⁰Aver avilo phenelas, "Gazda, Dikh! Katse si cho galbano kai dian ma, garadem les ande poxtan.

²¹for 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.

²¹Ke darailem tutar, ke tu san manush zurale ilesko: tu les so chi dian, ai chides so chi bariardian."

²²He 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;

²²O amperato phendia leske, "Dav tu kris pala che vorbi, tu san chorho sluga, tu zhanesas ke sim manush zurale ilesko, lav so chi dem, ai chidav so chi bariardem.

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

²³Apo, "Sostar chi thodian murhe love ande banka? Saxke, kana avilemas khere sas te bution?"

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

²⁴Porme phendia kodolenge kai sas kotse, "Len lestar o galbano, ai den les ka kako kai si les desh."

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

²⁵Le kolaver phendia leske, "Gazda, si les vunzhe desh galbi!"

²⁶I 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.

²⁶O Jesus phendia, "Me phenav tumenge, avela dino ka kuko kai si les; numa ka kuko kai nai, avela lino lestar vi so si les.

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

²⁷Numa le manush kai chi mai le te avav lengo amperato, anen le katse, ai mudaren le angla mande."

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

²⁸Kana phendia kodia paramichi, O Jesus gelotar angla manush te zhal ande Jerusalem.

²⁹And 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,

²⁹Kana pashilo pashai Bethphage ai Bethani karing e plai kai busholas E Plai le Maslinengi, O Jesus tradia dui anda peske disiplonge, phenelas,

³⁰saying, 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.

³⁰"Zhan ando gav kai si angla amende; ai kana aresena, arakhena kotse ieke magares kai si phanglo, pe kodo magari inker chi iek manush chi beshlo; phutren les, ai anen les katse.

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

³¹Te phushela tumen vari kon, "Sostar phutren le magares?" Tume phenen leske, "Ke trobul le Devles."

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

³²Le disipluria kai sas tradino gele, ai arakhle sa le dieli sar O Jesus phendiasas lenge.

³³And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?

³³Kana phutrenas le magares, o gazda phendia lenge, "Sostar phutren le magares?"

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

³⁴Ai won phende, "Ke trobul le Devles."

³⁵And they brought him to Jesus: and they threw their garments upon the colt, and set Jesus thereon.

³⁵Angerde le magares ka Jesus; ai thode pe penge raxamia po magari, ai thode le Jesusos te beshel opral.

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

³⁶Sar phirelas, won shudenas penge raxamia po drom.

³⁷And 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;

³⁷Ai kana pasholas pashai Jerusalem, karing e plaiing kai xulelas e plaiing kai bushol E Plaiing le Maslinenge, sa le disipluria raduime sas, ai dine naisimos ka Del pala sa le mirakluria kai dikhle; phenenas,

³⁸saying, Blessed [is] the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

³⁸"Raduime te avel o amperato kai avel ando anav le Devlesko! Pacha ando rhaio, ai o barimos te avel ando rhaio."

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

³⁹Ai uni Farizeanonge kai sas mashkar o narodo, phende le Jesusoske, "Gazda, phen che disiplonge te terdion."

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

⁴⁰Ai O Jesus phendia lenge, "Me phenav tumenge, te terdiona won te tsipin, le bax si te tsipin."

⁴¹And when he drew nigh, he saw the city and wept over it,

⁴¹Ai kana pasholas pasha foro, O Jesus dikhelas pe Jerusalem ai rovelas,

⁴²saying, If thou hadst known in this day, even thou, the things which belong unto peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

⁴²ai phenelas, "Te zhanglianas ande kado dies le dieli kai si cha pachake! Numa akana garade le angla che iakha.

⁴³For the days shall come upon thee, when thine enemies shall cast up a bank about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,

⁴³Uni diesa avela pe tute kana che duzhmaia avena kruglom tutar, phandavena tu, ai chidena tu pa sako rik.

⁴⁴and shall dash thee to 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.

⁴⁴Phagavena tu ai sa le manushen mashkar tute; ai chi mekena pe tute te ashel bax pe baxeste ke chi zhanglian e vriama kana O Del avilo te skepil tu."

⁴⁵And he entered into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold,

⁴⁵O Jesus avilo ande tampla, ai gonisardia sa kodolen kai bichinenas ai chinenas,

⁴⁶saying unto them, It is written, And my house shall be a house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of robbers.

⁴⁶ai phenel lenge, "Ramome, 'Murho kher si o kher le rhugimasko; numa tume kerdian anda leste kher chorengo.'"

⁴⁷And he was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people sought to destroy him:

⁴⁷O Jesus sicharelas swako dies ande tampla, ai le bare rasha, ai le Gramnoturia, ai le bare le narodoske rodenas te mudaren le Jesusos.

⁴⁸and they could not find what they might do; for the people all hung upon him, listening.

⁴⁸Numa chi zhanenas sar te keren; ke sa le manush drago lenge te ashunen leste.
