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

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

Moreover those my enemies, who would not that I should reign over them, bring hither and slay before me.

And he saith to him, Out of thy own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow.

he sent two of his disciples, saying, Go ye into the village over against you, in which entering, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man yet sat; loose him and bring him hither.

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

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

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

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

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

And going into the temple, he drove out them that sold and them that bought therein.

And Zaccheus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken any thing from any man wrongfully, I restore him fourfold.

And as he drew nigh to Bethpage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives,

Saying, Blessed be the king that cometh in the name of the Lord: Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

saying, O that thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day the things that are for thy peace. But now they are hid from thine eyes.

And he answering said to them, I tell you, that if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

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

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

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

And shall dash thee against the ground, and thy children, that are in thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another: because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

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

And seeing it, they all murmured, saying, He is gone to be guest with a sinner.

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

And when he was returned, having received the kingdom, he commanded these servants to be called to him, to whom he had given the money, to know what each had gained by trading.

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

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

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

And found not what they might do; for all the people hung upon him to hear him.
