Si Jesus at si Zaqueo

19 Pumasok at nagdaan si Jesus sa Jerico. May isang lalaki doon na ang pangalan ay Zaqueo. Siya ay pinuno ng mga maniningil ng buwis at mayaman. Sinisikap niyang makita kung sino si Jesus, subalit dahil sa dami ng tao ay hindi niya ito makita sapagkat siya ay pandak. Kaya't patakbo siyang nauna at umakyat sa puno ng sikomoro, sapagkat si Jesus ay malapit nang dumaan doon. Pagdating ni Jesus sa tapat niyon, tumingala siya at sinabi kay Zaqueo, “Zaqueo, dalian mo, bumaba ka sapagkat ngayo'y kailangan kong tumuloy sa iyong bahay.” Kaya't nagmamadaling bumaba si Zaqueo at tuwang-tuwang pinatuloy si Jesus sa kanyang bahay. Ang lahat ng nakakita nito ay nagsimulang magbulungan, “Pumasok siya upang maging panauhin sa bahay ng isang makasalanan.” Tumayo si Zaqueo at sinabi sa Panginoon, “Panginoon, masdan po ninyo, ibibigay ko sa mahihirap ang kalahati ng aking pag-aari. At kung mayroon man akong dinaya, ibabalik ko iyon nang apat na ulit.” At sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Sa araw na ito, ang kaligtasan ay dumating sa bahay na ito, sapagkat ang taong ito ay anak din ni Abraham. 10 Sapagkat naparito ang Anak ng Tao upang hanapin at iligtas ang naligaw.”

Ang Talinghaga ng Sampung Gintong Salapi(A)

11 Habang pinakikinggan nila ang mga ito, isinalaysay pa ni Jesus ang isang talinghaga, sapagkat malapit na siya sa Jerusalem at inaakala nilang ang paghahari ng Diyos ay kaagad mahahayag. 12 Kaya sinabi niya, “Isang maharlikang tao ang pumunta sa malayong lugar upang maging hari, at pagkatapos ay bumalik. 13 Bago umalis, tinawag niya ang sampu niyang alipin, binigyan ang mga ito ng gintong salapi[a] at sinabi sa kanila, ‘Gamitin ninyo ito sa negosyo hanggang sa aking pagbabalik.’ 14 Ngunit kinapootan naman siya ng mga mamamayan at nagsugo ang mga ito ng kinatawan na nagsabing, ‘Ayaw naming maging hari ang taong ito.’ 15 At nang sumapit ang kanyang pagbabalik pagkatapos niyang maging hari, pinatawag niya ang kanyang mga aliping binigyan niya ng salapi upang alamin kung ano ang tinubo nila sa pangangalakal. 16 At lumapit ang una na nagsabi, ‘Panginoon, ang inyong gintong salapi ay tumubo ng sampu.’ 17 Kaya sinabi niya sa kanya, ‘Magaling, mabuting alipin! Sapagkat naging tapat ka sa kaunti, mamahala ka sa sampung lungsod.’ 18 Lumapit ang ikalawa at nagsabi, ‘Panginoon, tumubo ng lima ang inyong gintong salapi.’ 19 At sinabi rin niya rito, ‘Ikaw naman, mamahala ka sa limang lungsod.’ 20 Lumapit ang isa pang alipin at nagsabi, ‘Panginoon, narito po ang inyong gintong salapi na aking ibinalot sa panyo. 21 Sapagkat natakot po ako sa inyo dahil kayo ay isang taong mahigpit. Kinukuha ninyo ang hindi ninyo itinabi, at inaani ninyo ang hindi ninyo itinanim.’ 22 Sumagot ang hari, ‘Masamang alipin! Sa iyong bibig na rin nanggaling ang aking hatol sa iyo. Alam mo na palang ako ay mahigpit, na kinukuha ko ang hindi ko itinabi at inaani ko ang hindi ko itinanim, 23 bakit hindi mo man lang inilagay sa bangko ang salapi? Nang sa gayon, sa aking pagbabalik ay kumita man lang ako sa tubo nito.’ 24 At sinabi niya sa mga nakatayo roon, ‘Kunin ninyo sa taong ito ang gintong salapi at ibigay sa may sampu.’ 25 Sinabi nila sa kanya, ‘Panginoon, mayroon na po siyang sampu.’ 26 ‘Sinasabi ko sa inyo, bibigyan pa ang sinumang mayroon na, ngunit ang wala, kahit ang nasa kanya ay kukunin pa. 27 Tungkol naman sa aking mga kaaway na ayaw na ako'y maghari sa kanila, dalhin ninyo sila rito at patayin sila sa aking harapan.’ ”

Ang Matagumpay na Pagpasok sa Jerusalem(B)

28 Pagkasabi nito, nagpatuloy si Jesus sa pag-akyat sa Jerusalem. 29 Nang malapit na siya sa Betfage at Betania, sa lugar na tinatawag na Bundok ng mga Olibo, pinauna niya ang dalawa sa mga alagad. 30 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Pumunta kayo sa susunod na nayon. Sa pagpasok ninyo roo'y makikita ninyo ang isang batang asno na nakatali na hindi pa nasasakyan ng kahit sino. Kalagan ninyo iyon at dalhin dito. 31 Kung may magtanong sa inyo, ‘Bakit ninyo kinakalagan iyan?’ ganito ang sabihin ninyo, ‘Kailangan ito ng Panginoon.’ ” 32 Sumunod ang mga inutusan, at natagpuan nga nila ang asno ayon sa sinabi sa kanila. 33 Habang kinakalagan nila ang batang asno ay tinanong sila ng may-ari nito, “Bakit ninyo kinakalagan ang batang asno?” 34 Kaya't sinabi nila, “Kailangan ito ng Panginoon.” 35 Dinala nila ang batang asno kay Jesus at matapos ilagay sa likod nito ang kanilang mga balabal, siya ay pinasakay nila dito. 36 Samantalang siya'y nakasakay sa batang asno, inilalatag naman ng mga tao ang kanilang damit sa daan. 37 Nang malapit na siya sa daan pababa sa Bundok ng mga Olibo, ang lahat ng napakaraming mga alagad ay nagsimulang magsaya at magpuri sa Diyos nang pasigaw tungkol sa nasaksihan nilang mga kababalaghan. 38 Sinabi nila,

“Pinagpala ang Haring dumarating sa pangalan ng Panginoon!
Kapayapaan sa langit at luwalhati sa kataas-taasan.”

39 Ilan sa mga Fariseo na nasa karamihan ay nagsabi sa kanya, “Guro! Sawayin mo ang iyong mga alagad.” 40 Ngunit sumagot si Jesus, “Sinasabi ko sa inyo, kung tatahimik ang mga ito, magsisigawan ang mga bato.” 41 Nang papalapit na siya sa Jerusalem at natatanaw na niya ang lungsod, ito'y kanyang tinangisan. 42 Sinabi niya, “Kung alam mo lang sana sa araw na ito kung ano ang magdudulot sa iyo ng kapayapaan! Ngunit ngayon, itinago ang mga ito sa iyong mga mata. 43 Sapagkat darating sa iyo ang mga araw na magtatayo ng moog ang iyong mga kaaway at palilibutan ka nila at lulusubin ka nila sa bawat panig. 44 Ibabagsak ka nila sa lupa, ikaw at ang iyong mga anak na nasa iyo. Wala silang ititirang bato na nasa ibabaw ng ibang bato; sapagkat hindi mo kinilala ang panahon ng pagdalaw sa iyo ng Diyos.”

Nilinis ni Jesus ang Templo(C)

45 Pumasok si Jesus sa templo, at sinimulan niyang itaboy ang mga nagtitinda roon. 46 Sinasabi niya sa kanila, “Nasusulat,

‘Ang tahanan ko ay magiging bahay-dalanginan;’
    ngunit ginawa ninyo itong pugad ng mga magnanakaw.”

47 Araw-araw siyang nangangaral sa templo. Sinikap siyang patayin ng mga punong pari, ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan, at ng mga pinuno ng bayan, 48 ngunit wala silang matagpuang paraan upang maisagawa ito sapagkat ang mga tao ay nakatuon sa pakikinig sa kanya.

  1. Lucas 19:13 Sa Griyego, mina, ang katumbas ay humigit-kumulang sa tatlong buwang sahod ng isang karaniwang manggagawa.

19 He entered and was passing through Jericho. There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. He was trying to see who Jesus was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short. He ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was going to pass that way. When 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.” He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully. When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, “He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner.”

Zacchaeus 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.”

Jesus said to him, “Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.”

11 As they heard these things, he went on and told a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that God’s Kingdom would be revealed immediately. 12 He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. 13 He called ten servants of his and gave them ten mina coins, [a] and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’ 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’

15 “When he had come back again, having received the kingdom, 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. 16 The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’

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

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

20 Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief, 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 “He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will 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. 23 Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’ 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 “They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’ 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. 27 But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’” 28 Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

29 When he came near to Bethsphage[b] and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples, 30 saying, “Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, which no man has ever sat upon. Untie it and bring it. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”

32 Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them. 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?” 34 They said, “The Lord needs it.” 35 Then they brought it to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Jesus on them. 36 As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.

37 As 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, 38 saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! (A) Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

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

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

41 When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it, 42 saying, “If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes. 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, 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.”

45 He entered into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, 46 saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ (B) but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!” (C)

47 He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests, the scribes, and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him. 48 They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.

19 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.

And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

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

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

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

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

And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.

And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

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

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

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

13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.

15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.

16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

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

18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

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

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

21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.

22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

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

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

26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.

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

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

29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.

31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.

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

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

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

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

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

37 And when he was come nigh, even now 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 that they had seen;

38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

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

40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

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

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

44 And shall lay thee even with 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.

45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;

46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.

47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,

48 And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
