¹Nto'u karata-na Yesus hi ngata Yerikho, momako' ncuu-i ntara rala ngata toe.

¹He entered and was passing through Jericho.

²Hi ngata toe, ria hadua topo'ua' to mpokapalai' topesingara' paja', hanga' -na Zakheus.

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

³Doko' -i-hawo mpohilo beiwa lence-na Yesus. Aga uma-i bisa mpohilo apa' wori' rahi tauna, bo hi'a he'e tauna to dingki'.

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

⁴Jadi', pokeno-nami mpori'uluhi ntodea, pai' -i ngkahe' kaju ara bona ma'ala-i-hawo mpopanto' Yesus ane liu-ipi hi ree.

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

⁵Kaliu-na Yesus hi ree, pengoa' -nami pai' na'uli': "Zakheus, pesahui mana'u! Apa' eo toe lau, kana mehani-a hi tomi-nu."

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.”

⁶Napesahui mpu'u-mi-hawo Zakheus mana'u, pai' goe' -i mpotarima Yesus hi tomi-na.

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

⁷Kapehilo-ra ntodea hilou-i Yesus hi tomi Zakheus, ngkunuti-ramo, ra'uli': "Ii, napa-di pai' mencua' hi tomi topojeko' -i-hanae!"

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

⁸Bula-na Pue' Yesus hi tomi Zakheus, mokore-imi Zakheus mpo'uli' -ki: "Pue', bagi ntongo' ngkai rewa-ku kuwai' -raka tokabu, pai' hema-hema to kubagiu, kupoponculi' opo' ngkani ngkai to kubagiu-raka."

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.”

⁹Na'uli' Yesus: "Hi eo toe lau, tauna hi tomi toi tebahaka ngkai huku' jeko' -ra, apa' Zakheus toii, muli Abraham wo'o-i-hawo.

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

¹⁰Apa' toe-mile pai' tumai-ae, Aku' Ana' Manusia'. Tumai-a mpopali' tauna to molaa ngkai Alata'ala, pai' mpohore-ra ngkai huku' jeko' -ra."

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

¹¹Neo' rata-imi Yesus hi Yerusalem, toe pai' wori' tauna mpo'uli' neo' rata mpu'u-mi tempo-na Alata'ala jadi' Magau' hi dunia'. Jadi', bula ntodea mpe'epei lolita-na, na'umpui' wo'o-mi lolita-na hante hanyala lolita rapa'.

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.

¹²Na'uli': "Ria hadua maradika mopatuju hilou hi ngata to molaa, lou ralanti' jadi' magau' pai' nculii'.

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

¹³Jadi', kako'ia-na me'ongko', mpokio' -i hampulu' pahawaa' -na pai' nawai' -ra hore-hore hampepa' doi bulawa. Na'uli' maradika toei: `Mobabalu' -koi hante doi to kuwai' -kokoi tetu lingku' -ku hilou.'

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.’

¹⁴Aga hi ngata maradika toe, ria wo'o-rawo tauna to mpokahuku' -i. Pe'ongko' -na maradika tohe'e, rapahawa' suro hilou mpotuku' -i pai' mpo'uli': `Oja' -ka-kaina maradika tetu jadi' magau' -kai!'

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

¹⁵"Aga ra'ongko' moto-i jadi' magau', pai' nculii' -imi hilou hi ngata-na. Karata-na hi ngata, nakio' -ramo pahawaa' -na mpohirua' -ki, napongincai kahangkuja-nami rasi' to rarata.

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.

¹⁶To lomo' -na rata pai' na'uli': `Magau', doi bulawa to hampepa' to nuwai' -ka, ria-mi ana' -na hampulu'.'

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

¹⁷"Na'uli' magau' toei: `Lompe' -mi, iko pahawaa' to lompe'. Wae-pi, apa' monoa' -ko hi to hangkedi', ku'ongko' -moko jadi' topohawa' to mpohawai' hampulu' ngata.'

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.’

¹⁸"Pahawaa' karodua-na rata wo'o pai' mpo'uli': `Magau', doi bulawa to hampepa' to nuwai' -ka, jadi' lima mpepa' -mi.'

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

¹⁹"Na'uli' wo'o-mi magau' hi karodua-na tohe'ei: `Iko wo'o ku'ongko' jadi' topohawa' hi lima ngata.'

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

²⁰"Ngkai ree, rata wo'o-imi-hawo pahawaa' kahadua-na. Na'uli': `Oi-mi doi-nu Magau'. Kutimamahi lompe', kuputu' hante lenco.

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

²¹Me'eka' -a hi Magau', apa' ku'inca kasoa-nu. Nupepae to bela-kowo hinu'a-nu, nu'ala' to uma nukarokoi.'

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"Na'uli' magau' mpo'uli' -ki: `Iko pahawaa' to dada'a! Ane nu'inca kasoa-ku, ane nu'inca kampepae-ku to bela hinu'a-ku, pai' kampo'ala' -ku to uma kukarokoi,

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.

²³napa pai' doi-ku uma nupopesua' hi bank, bona ane rata-apa, ku'ala' hante ana' -na!'

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

²⁴Oti toe, na'uli' wo'o-mi hi tauna to mokore hi ncori-na: `Ala' doi to hi tauna tetui, pai' wai' -ki to ria-ki hampulu'.'

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"Ingu' -ramo to napahawa' toera, ra'uli': `Napa pai' hewa tetu, Magau'? Apa' ria-miki-hana hampulu' mpepa'!'

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

²⁶"Na'uli' magau': `Mpu'u ku'uli' -kokoi: Tauna to ma'ala rasarumaka hante anu to rawai' -ki, rawai' tena-i-pidi. Tapi' tauna to uma rasarumaka, anu hangkedi' to ria hi hi'a, ra'alai' lau-i.

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.

²⁷Pai' wae lau, keni-ramo tumai bali' -ku to mpoka'oja' -a jadi' magau' -ra. Patehi-ramo hi rehe'i bona kuhilo!'"

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

²⁸Ka'oti-na Yesus mpo'uli' hawe'ea toe, pomako' -nami meri'ulu ngkai doo-na hilou hi Yerusalem.

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

²⁹Mohu' -ramo hi ngata Betfage pai' Betania hi bulu' Zaitun, nahubui rodua ana'guru-na mako' meri'ulu.

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,

³⁰Na'uli' -raka: "Hilou-mokoi hi ngata to tanyanyohi toe mai. Ane mesua' -pokoi hi rala ngata, nihilo mpai' hama'a ana' keledai to tehoo'. Keledai toe ko'ia hangkania rahawi'. Bongka koloro-na pai' keni-i tumai.

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.

³¹Ane ria tauna mpekune' -koi napa pai' nibongka-i, uli': `Apa' Pue' mparaluu-i.'"

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

³²Hilou mpu'u-ramo ana'guru-na to rodua tohe'era, pai' rarata bate hewa to na'uli' -raka Yesus.

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

³³Bula-ra mpobongka keledai toe, mepekune' -mi pue' -na: "Napa pai' nibongka keledai tetu-e?"

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

³⁴Ratompoi': "Apa' Pue' mparaluu-i."

³⁴They said, “The Lord needs it.”

³⁵Karakeni-nami hilou hi Yesus, ralampii hante baju-ra, pai' rapopehawi' -i Yesus.

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

³⁶Kaliu-na Yesus mpohawi' keledai tohe'e, tauna mpokodo baju-ra hi mata ohea, tanda pebila' -ra.

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

³⁷Mohu' -mi hi ngata Yerusalem, hi pana'ua-na hi bulu' Zaitun, hawe'ea topetuku' -na to wori' toe ntepu'u mpo'une' Alata'ala. Mogora-ra-damo nakeni kagoe' nono-ra sabana hawe'ea anu mekoncehi to rahilo.

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,

³⁸Ra'uli' hi rala pe'une' -ra: Pue' Ala mpogane' Magau' to tumai mpokeni hanga' -na!" Une' -imi Pue' Ala to hi suruga, apa' nawai' -tamo kalompea'."

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

³⁹Ngkai ree, ba hangkuja dua to Parisi to hi olo' tauna to wori' mpo'uli' -ki Yesus: "Guru, tagi-ramo ana'guru-nu bona neo' -ra mpo'uli' hewa tetu!"

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

⁴⁰Na'uli' Yesus: "Uma-e'! Apa' ane mengkalino-ra ana'guru-ku, watu toe lau-ramo mpai' to mogora mpo'une' -a."

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

⁴¹Kamoo-mohua' -imi Yesus hi Yerusalem, duu' -na mpohilo-i ngata toe. Kageo' -nami mpokageoi' ngata toe.

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

⁴²Na'uli': "Mpe'ahii' -koi to Yerusalem! Uma mowo kalompe' -na ane ke ni'inca napa to ngkeni-kokoi kalompea' tuwu' hi eo toe lau. Aga hawe'ea toe teleru ngkai mata-ni.

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

⁴³Rata mpai' tempo-na, bali' -ni mpanga'ei ngata-ni, ratipuhi ntololikia hante wala, duu' -na uma-pi ria ohea metibo'.

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,

⁴⁴Raropuhi mpai' ngata-ni hante hawe'ea ihi' -na, duu' -na uma-pi ria watu to bate pomeduncu-na. Apa' uma-koina nisaile' karata-na Pue' Ala doko' mpotulungi-koi."

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.”

⁴⁵Oti toe, Yesus mesua' hi berewe Tomi Alata'ala pai' -i mpopalai tauna to mobabalu' hi ree.

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

⁴⁶Na'uli' -raka: "Hi rala Buku Tomoroli', Alata'ala mpo'uli' hewa toi: `Tomi-ku, tomi posampayaa.' Hiaa' koi' -koina, niponcawa tomi toperampaki-di!"

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

⁴⁷Butu eo-na Yesus metudui' hi Tomi Alata'ala. Imam pangkeni hante guru agama pai' pangkeni to Yahudi ntani' -na mpali' akala-ra doko' mpatehi-i,

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.

⁴⁸aga uma ria ohea-ra mpobabehi anu hi nono-ra, apa' lutu-ramo ntodea mpe'epei lolita-na.

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