¹[] Και εισελθων διηρχετο την Ιεριχω·

¹He entered and was passing through Jericho.

²και ιδου, ανθρωπος ονομαζομενος Ζακχαιος, οστις ητο αρχιτελωνης, και ουτος ητο πλουσιος,

²There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.

³και εζητει να ιδη τον Ιησουν τις ειναι, και δεν ηδυνατο δια τον οχλον, διοτι ητο μικρος το αναστημα.

³He was trying to see who Jesus was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short.

⁴και δραμων εμπρος ανεβη επι συκομορεαν δια να ιδη αυτον· επειδη δι' εκεινης της οδου εμελλε να περαση.

⁴He ran on ahead, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way.

⁵Και ως ηλθεν εις τον τοπον ο Ιησους, αναβλεψας ειδεν αυτον και ειπε προς αυτον· Ζακχαιε, καταβα ταχεως· διοτι σημερον πρεπει να μεινω εν τω οικω σου.

⁵When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.”

⁶Και κατεβη ταχεως και υπεδεχθη αυτον μετα χαρας.

⁶He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully.

⁷Και ιδοντες απαντες εγογγυζον, λεγοντες οτι εις αμαρτωλον ανθρωπον εισηλθε να καταλυση.

⁷When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, “He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner.”

⁸Σταθεις δε ο Ζακχαιος, ειπε προς τον Κυριον· Ιδου, τα ημιση των υπαρχοντων μου, Κυριε, διδω εις τους πτωχους, και εαν εσυκοφαντησα τινα εις τι, αποδιδω τετραπλουν.

⁸Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor. If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much.”

⁹Ειπε δε προς αυτον ο Ιησους οτι, Σημερον εγεινε σωτηρια εις τον οικον τουτον, καθοτι και αυτος υιος του Αβρααμ ειναι.

⁹Jesus said to him, “Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.

¹⁰Διοτι ο Υιος του ανθρωπου ηλθε να ζητηση και να σωση το απολωλος.

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

¹¹[] Και ενω αυτοι ηκουον ταυτα, προσθεσας ειπε παραβολην, διοτι ητο πλησιον της Ιερουσαλημ και αυτοι ενομιζον οτι η βασιλεια του Θεου εμελλεν ευθυς να φανη·

¹¹As they heard these things, he went on and told a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that the Kingdom of God would be revealed immediately.

¹²ειπε λοιπον· Ανθρωπος τις ευγενης υπηγεν εις χωραν μακραν δια να λαβη εις εαυτον βασιλειαν και να υποστρεψη.

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

¹³Και καλεσας δεκα δουλους εαυτου, εδωκεν εις αυτους δεκα μνας και ειπε προς αυτους· Πραγματευθητε εωσου ελθω.

¹³ He called ten servants of his, and gave them ten mina coins, 10 minas was more than 3 years’ wages for an agricultural laborer. and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’

¹⁴Οι συμπολιται αυτου ομως εμισουν αυτον και απεστειλαν κατοπιν αυτου πρεσβεις, λεγοντες· Δεν θελομεν τουτον να βασιλευση εφ' ημας.

¹⁴ But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’

¹⁵Και αφου υπεστρεψε λαβων την βασιλειαν, ειπε να προσκληθωσι προς αυτον οι δουλοι εκεινοι, εις τους οποιους εδωκε το αργυριον, δια να μαθη τι εκερδησεν εκαστος.

¹⁵ “It happened when he had come back again, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business.

¹⁶Και ηλθεν ο πρωτος, λεγων· Κυριε, η μνα σου εκερδησε δεκα μνας.

¹⁶ The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’

¹⁷Και ειπε προς αυτον· Ευγε, αγαθε δουλε· επειδη εις το ελαχιστον εφανης πιστος, εχε εξουσιαν επανω δεκα πολεων.

¹⁷ “He said to him, ‘Well done, you good servant! Because you were found faithful with very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.’

¹⁸Και ηλθεν ο δευτερος, λεγων· Κυριε, η μνα σου εκαμε πεντε μνας.

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

¹⁹Ειπε δε και προς τουτον· Και συ γενου εξουσιαστης επανω πεντε πολεων.

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

²⁰Ηλθε και αλλος, λεγων· Κυριε, ιδου η μνα σου, την οποιαν ειχον πεφυλαγμενην εν μανδηλιω.

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

²¹Διοτι σε εφοβουμην, επειδη εισαι ανθρωπος αυστηρος· λαμβανεις ο, τι δεν κατεβαλες, και θεριζεις ο, τι δεν εσπειρας.

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.’

²²Και λεγει προς αυτον· Εκ του στοματος σου θελω σε κρινει, πονηρε δουλε· ηξευρες οτι εγω ειμαι ανθρωπος αυστηρος, λαμβανων ο, τι δεν κατεβαλον, και θεριζων ο, τι δεν εσπειρα·

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.

²³δια τι λοιπον δεν εδωκας το αργυριον μου εις την τραπεζαν, ωστε εγω ελθων ηθελον συναξει αυτο μετα του τοκου;

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

²⁴Και ειπε προς τους παρεστωτας· Αφαιρεσατε απ' αυτου την μναν και δοτε εις τον εχοντα τας δεκα μνας.

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

²⁵Και ειπον προς αυτον· Κυριε, εχει δεκα μνας.

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

²⁶Διοτι σας λεγω οτι εις παντα τον εχοντα θελει δοθη, απο δε του μη εχοντος και ο, τι εχει θελει αφαιρεθη απ' αυτου.

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.

²⁷Πλην τους εχθρους μου εκεινους, οιτινες δεν με ηθελησαν να βασιλευσω επ' αυτους, φερετε εδω και κατασφαξατε εμπροσθεν μου.

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

²⁸[] Και ειπων ταυτα, προεχωρει αναβαινων εις Ιεροσολυμα.

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

²⁹Και ως επλησιασεν εις Βηθφαγη και Βηθανιαν, προς το ορος το καλουμενον Ελαιων, απεστειλε δυο των μαθητων αυτου,

²⁹It happened, when he drew near to Bethsphage TR, NU read “Bethpage” instead of “Bethsphage” and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,

³⁰ειπων· Υπαγετε εις την κατεναντι κωμην, εις την οποιαν εμβαινοντες θελετε ευρει πωλαριον δεδεμενον, επι του οποιου ουδεις ανθρωπος εκαθησε ποτε· λυσατε αυτο και φερετε.

³⁰saying, “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.

³¹Και εαν τις σας ερωτηση, Δια τι λυετε αυτο ουτω θελετε ειπει προς αυτον, Οτι ο Κυριος εχει χρειαν αυτου.

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

³²Υπηγαν δε οι απεσταλμενοι και ευρον καθως ειπε προς αυτους·

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

³³και ενω ελυον το πωλαριον, ειπον προς αυτους οι κυριοι αυτου· Δια τι λυετε το πωλαριον;

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

³⁴Οι δε ειπον· Ο Κυριος εχει χρειαν αυτου,

³⁴They said, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵και εφεραν αυτο προς τον Ιησουν· και ριψαντες επι το πωλαριον τα ιματια αυτων, επεκαθισαν τον Ιησουν.

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

³⁶Ενω δε επορευετο, υπεστρωνον τα ιματια αυτων εις την οδον.

³⁶As he went, they spread their cloaks in the way.

³⁷Και οτε επλησιαζεν ηδη εις την καταβασιν του ορους των Ελαιων, ηρχισαν απαν το πληθος των μαθητων χαιροντες να υμνωσι τον Θεον μεγαλοφωνως δια παντα τα θαυματα, τα οποια ειδον,

³⁷As 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,

³⁸λεγοντες· Ευλογημενος ο ερχομενος Βασιλευς εν ονοματι του Κυριου· ειρηνη εν ουρανω, και δοξα εν υψιστοις.

³⁸saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Psalm 118:26 Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

³⁹Και τινες των Φαρισαιων απο του οχλου ειπον προς αυτον· Διδασκαλε, επιπληξον τους μαθητας σου.

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

⁴⁰Και αποκριθεις ειπε προς αυτους· Σας λεγω οτι εαν ουτοι σιωπησωσιν, οι λιθοι θελουσι φωναξει.

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

⁴¹[] Και οτε επλησιασεν, ιδων την πολιν εκλαυσεν επ' αυτην,

⁴¹When he drew near, he saw the city and wept over it,

⁴²λεγων, Ειθε να εγνωριζες και συ, τουλαχιστον εν τη ημερα σου ταυτη, τα προς ειρηνην σου αποβλεποντα· αλλα τωρα εκρυφθησαν απο των οφθαλμων σου·

⁴²saying, “If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes.

⁴³διοτι θελουσιν ελθει ημεραι επι σε και οι εχθροι σου θελουσι καμει χαρακωμα περι σε, και θελουσι σε περικυκλωσει και θελουσι σε στενοχωρησει πανταχοθεν,

⁴³ For the days will come on you, when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, surround you, hem you in on every side,

⁴⁴και θελουσι κατεδαφισει σε και τα τεκνα σου εν σοι, και δεν θελουσιν αφησει εν σοι λιθον επι λιθον, διοτι δεν εγνωρισας τον καιρον της επισκεψεως σου.

⁴⁴ and will dash you and your children within you to the ground. They will not leave in you one stone on another, because you didn’t know the time of your visitation.”

⁴⁵Και εισελθων εις το ιερον, ηρχισε να εκβαλλη τους πωλουντας εν αυτω και αγοραζοντας,

⁴⁵He entered into the temple, and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it,

⁴⁶λεγων προς αυτους· Ειναι γεγραμμενον, Ο οικος μου ειναι οικος προσευχης· σεις δε εκαμετε αυτον σπηλαιον ληστων.

⁴⁶saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ Isaiah 56:7 but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!” Jeremiah 7:11

⁴⁷Και εδιδασκε καθ' ημεραν εν τω ιερω οι δε αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις και οι πρωτοι του λαου εζητουν να απολεσωσιν αυτον.

⁴⁷He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests and the scribes and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him.

⁴⁸Και δεν ευρισκον το τι να πραξωσι· διοτι πας ο λαος ητο προσηλωμενος εις το να ακουη αυτον.

⁴⁸They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.
