K. Jezus Zacheusa mōjā.
1 Un, īgōjis īkšā, Jys gōja pōri par Jericho tōļōk. 2 Un raug, te beja kaids cylvāks, Zacheuss vōrdā. Jys beja muitinīku vērsinīks, bogōts cylvāks. 3 Jys gribēja Jezu redzēt, kas Jys ir, bet ļaužu daudzuma dēļ navarēja, jo beja mozs augumā. 4 Lai Jū īraudzeitu, jys aizasteidze uz prīšku un īkōpe sychomora kūkā, jo tur Jam vajadzēja īt garum. 5 Jezus, pīgōjis pi tōs vītas, īraudzeja jū un saceja: Zacheuss, kōp tyuleņ zemē, jo tovōs mōjōs Maņ šudiņ jōapstōj. 6 Jys steidzeigi nūkōpe zemē un ar prīcu jū pījēme.
7 Tū radzādami, visi kūrnēja un saceja: Jys apstōja pi vīna grēcinīka. 8 Bet Zacheuss, pīgōjis pi Kunga, saceja: Raug, Kungs, es pusi sova monta atdūdu nabogim, un jo es kam asmu izdarejis pōresteibu, tam atdūšu četrkōrteigi. 9 Jezus jam saceja: Šudiņ šytai mōjai atnōce pesteišona, jo ari jys ir Abraama dāls. 10 Cylvāka Dāls tadei atgōja maklātu un izglōbtu tūs, kas beja pazuduši.
Pīleidzeiba par uztycātom menom.
11 Kad jī tō klausejōs, Jys pasaceja vēļ vīnu pīleidzeibu, jo Jys beja jau tyvu pi Jeruzalemas, un jo jī dūmōja, ka tyuleņ pasarōdeis Dīva vaļsteiba. Tai tad Jys saceja:
12 Vīns cylvāks nu augstas ciļts aizgōja uz tōlejū zemi, lai sajimtu sev kēnesti un tad grīztūs atpakaļ. 13 Jys atsauce pi sevis sovus desmit kolpus, uzticēja tim desmit menu un saceja: Peļnejit, cikom atīšu. 14 Bet mīsta ļaudis jū īneida. Jī nūsyuteja jam pakaļ syutņus saceidami: Mes nagrybam, ka tys par mums vaļdeitu. 15 Jys tūmār sajēme kēnesti un atsagrīze atpakaļ. Tad jys lyka pasaukt kolpus, kurim beja uzticējis naudu, lai izzynōtu, cik kurs ir nūpeļnejis. 16 Pyrmais pīgōja klōtu saceidams: Kungs, tova mena nūpeļneja desmit menu. 17 Tad jam saceja: Labi, lobais kolps, tai kai tu beji uzticeigs mozā, tad tu byusi desmit piļsātu pōrvaļdnīks. 18 Ari ūtrais atgōjis saceja: Kungs, tova mena nūpeļneja pīcas menas. 19 Ari jam pasaceja: Tu byusi pīcu piļsātu pōrvaļdnīks. 20 Golā atgōjis cyts saceja: Kungs, raug, te ir tova mena, kura maņ beja globojama svīdru autā, 21 jo es tevis beidūs, ka tu esi borgs cylvāks; jem tū, kō naesi licis, pļauņ, kō naesi sējis. 22 Jys tam atbiļdēja: Ļaunais kolps, nu tovas mutes es tevi nūtīsoju. Tu tadei zynōji, ka asmu borgs cylvāks, ka jamu, kō naasmu licis, pļaunu, kō, naasmu sējis. 23 Kōpēc tad munas naudas naliki bankā, lai es, atsagrīzis mōjōs, sajimtu tū ar procentem? 24 Atjemit nu jō, saceja klōtasūšim, tū menu un atdūdit tam, kam ir desmit menu. 25 Bet kaids saceja: Kungs, jam jau ir desmit menu. 26 Es jums soku: Ikvīnam, kam ir, byus vairōk īdūts (un jam byus pōrpiļneiba); bet kam navā, nu tō tiks atjimts ari tys, kū jys vēļ turātu. 27 Un tūs munus īnaidnīkus, kuri nagribēja, ka es par jim vaļdeitu, atvedit šur un munōs acīs jūs nūnōvejit.
Īīšona Jeruzalemā.
28 Pēc šytūs vōrdu Jys laidēs īt tōļōk uz Jeruzalemas pusi.
29 Kad Jys atgōja natōli nu Betfage un Betanijas uz tai saucamū Eleja kalnu, tad nūsyuteja divejus nu mōceklim saceidams: 30 Ejte uz tū sadžu, kas ir jyusu prīškā. Īgōjuši jyus atrassit pīsītu ezelānu, uz kurō vēļ nivīns nu cylvākim navā sēdējis. Raisit tū vaļā un atvedit šur. 31 Jo kas jyusu vaicōtu, kōpēc jyus tū raisat vaļā, tim atbiļdit: jys ir vajadzeigs Kungam.
32 Syuteitī atgōja un atroda tai, kai jim beja teikts. 33 Kad jī raiseja vaļā ezelānu, viņa īpašnīks vaicōja: Kōpēc jyus raisat vaļā ezelānu? 34 Jī atbiļdēja: Jys ir vajadzeigs Kungam.
35 Atvaduši pi Jezus, jī salyka uz ezelāna vērsā sovas drēbes un vērsum uzsādynōja Jezu. 36 Kad jī devēs uz prīšku, ļaudis klōja uz ceļa sovas drēbes. 37 Tyvojūtīs Eleju kolna molai, vyss mōcekļu pulks sōce prīceigā un styprā bolsā slaveit Dīvu vysu tūs breinumdorbu dēļ, kurus jī beja redzējuši, 38 saceidami:
Svēteigs Kēneņš,
kas īt Kunga vōrdā.
Mīrs dabasūs,
gūds augstumūs.
39 Daži farizeji, kas beja ļaužu pulka vydā, Jam saceja: Mōceitōj, nūmīrej sovus mōcekļus. 40 Bet Jys tim atbiļdēja: Es jums soku, jo šitī klūsēs, tad akmini sauks.
41 Kad pīgōja tyvōk, Jys, īraudzejis mīstu, raudōja 42 saceidams: Ak, ka un tu pazeitu šytamā sovā dīnā tū, kas tev nas mīru! Bet tys ir dēļ tovom acim nūslāpums. 43 Tai tad tev atnōks dīnas, un tovi īnaidnīki ap tevi apmess vaļni, tevi aplenks un nu vysom pusem tevi apspīss. 44 Jī tevi un tovus bārnus, kas tevī ir, pagōzs pi zemes, un akmiņa uz akmiņa naatstōs, jo tu sovas apraudzeišonas laika napazini.
Svētneicas teireišona.
45 Tad Jys īgōja svētneicā un sōce dzeit ōrā vysus pōrdevējus (un pērcējūs) 46 tim saceidams: Stōv raksteits: Muns noms ir lyugšonas noms, bet jyus jū padarejot par slapkovu bedri.
47 Un Jys mōceja svētneicā ikdīnas. Bet vērsgoreidznīki, Rokstim mōceitī un tautas vacōkī meklēja Jū nūnōvēt, 48 bet nazynōja, kai tū padareit, jo visi ļaudis ar uzmaneibu Jō klausejōs.
Jesus and Zacchaeus
1 Jesus went on into Jericho and was passing through. 2 There was a chief tax collector there named Zacchaeus, who was rich. 3 He was trying to see who Jesus was, but he was a little man and could not see Jesus because of the crowd. 4 So he ran ahead of the crowd and climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus, who was going to pass that way. 5 When Jesus came to that place, he looked up and said to Zacchaeus, “Hurry down, Zacchaeus, because I must stay in your house today.”
6 Zacchaeus hurried down and welcomed him with great joy. 7 All the people who saw it started grumbling, “This man has gone as a guest to the home of a sinner!”
8 Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Listen, sir! I will give half my belongings to the poor, and if I have cheated anyone, I will pay back four times as much.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Salvation has come to this house today, for this man, also, is a descendant of Abraham. 10 The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
The Parable of the Gold Coins
(Matthew 25.14-30)
11 While the people were listening to this, Jesus continued and told them a parable. He was now almost at Jerusalem, and they supposed that the Kingdom of God was just about to appear. 12 So he said, “There was once a man of high rank who was going to a country far away to be made king, after which he planned to come back home. 13 Before he left, he called his ten servants and gave them each a gold coin and told them, ‘See what you can earn with this while I am gone.’ 14 Now, his own people hated him, and so they sent messengers after him to say, ‘We don't want this man to be our king.’
15 “The man was made king and came back. At once he ordered his servants to appear before him, in order to find out how much they had earned. 16 The first one came and said, ‘Sir, I have earned ten gold coins with the one you gave me.’ 17 ‘Well done,’ he said; ‘you are a good servant! Since you were faithful in small matters, I will put you in charge of ten cities.’ 18 The second servant came and said, ‘Sir, I have earned five gold coins with the one you gave me.’ 19 To this one he said, ‘You will be in charge of five cities.’ 20 Another servant came and said, ‘Sir, here is your gold coin; I kept it hidden in a handkerchief. 21 I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take what is not yours and reap what you did not plant.’ 22 He said to him, ‘You bad servant! I will use your own words to condemn you! You know that I am a hard man, taking what is not mine and reaping what I have not planted. 23 Well, then, why didn't you put my money in the bank? Then I would have received it back with interest when I returned.’ 24 Then he said to those who were standing there, ‘Take the gold coin away from him and give it to the servant who has ten coins.’ 25 But they said to him, ‘Sir, he already has ten coins!’ 26 ‘I tell you,’ he replied, ‘that to those who have something, even more will be given; but those who have nothing, even the little that they have will be taken away from them. 27 Now, as for those enemies of mine who did not want me to be their king, bring them here and kill them in my presence!’”
The Triumphant Approach to Jerusalem
(Matthew 21.1-11Mark 11.1-11John 12.12-19)
28 After Jesus said this, he went on in front of them toward Jerusalem. 29 As he came near Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, he sent two disciples ahead 30 with these instructions: “Go to the village there ahead of you; as you go in, you will find a colt tied up that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If someone asks you why you are untying it, tell him that the Master needs it.”
32 They went on their way and found everything just as Jesus had told them. 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying it?”
34 “The Master needs it,” they answered, 35 and they took the colt to Jesus. Then they threw their cloaks over the animal and helped Jesus get on. 36 As he rode on, people spread their cloaks on the road.
37 When he came near Jerusalem, at the place where the road went down the Mount of Olives, the large crowd of his disciples began to thank God and praise him in loud voices for all the great things that they had seen: 38 “God bless the king who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory to God!”
39 Then some of the Pharisees in the crowd spoke to Jesus. “Teacher,” they said, “command your disciples to be quiet!”
40 Jesus answered, “I tell you that if they keep quiet, the stones themselves will start shouting.”
Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem
41 He came closer to the city, and when he saw it, he wept over it, 42 saying, “If you only knew today what is needed for peace! But now you cannot see it! 43 The time will come when your enemies will surround you with barricades, blockade you, and close in on you from every side. 44 They will completely destroy you and the people within your walls; not a single stone will they leave in its place, because you did not recognize the time when God came to save you!”
Jesus Goes to the Temple
(Matthew 21.12-17Mark 11.15-19John 2.13-22)
45 Then Jesus went into the Temple and began to drive out the merchants, 46 saying to them, “It is written in the Scriptures that God said, ‘My Temple will be a house of prayer.’ But you have turned it into a hideout for thieves!”
47 Every day Jesus taught in the Temple. The chief priests, the teachers of the Law, and the leaders of the people wanted to kill him, 48 but they could not find a way to do it, because all the people kept listening to him, not wanting to miss a single word.
