Jesus

And he sought to see Iesus, who hee should be, and coulde not for the preasse, because he was of a lowe stature.

Wherefore he ranne before, and climed vp into a wilde figge tree, that he might see him: for he should come that way.

And when Iesus came to the place, he looked vp, and saw him, and said vnto him, Zaccheus, come downe at once: for to day I must abide at thine house.

Then he came downe hastily, and receiued him ioyfully.

And when all they sawe it, they murmured, saying, that hee was gone in to lodge with a sinfull man.

And Zaccheus stood forth, and said vnto the Lord, Beholde, Lord, the halfe of my goods I giue to the poore: and if I haue taken from any man by forged cauillation, I restore him foure folde.

Then Iesus said to him, This day is saluation come vnto this house, forasmuch as hee is also become the sonne of Abraham.

For the Sonne of man is come to seeke, and to saue that which was lost.

And whiles they heard these thinges, hee continued and spake a parable, because hee was neere to Hierusalem, and because also they thought that the kingdom of God should shortly appeare.

Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy piece hath encreased ten pieces.

And the second came, saying, Lord, thy piece hath encreased fiue pieces.

So the other came, and sayd, Lord, beholde thy piece, which I haue laide vp in a napkin:

(And they sayd vnto him, Lord, hee hath ten pieces.)

And when he had thus spoken, he went forth before, ascending vp to Hierusalem.

And it came to passe, when hee was come neere to Bethphage, and Bethania, besides the mount which is called the mount of Oliues, he sent two of his disciples,

And if any man aske you, why ye loose him, thus shall ye say vnto him, Because the Lord hath neede of him.

So they that were sent, went their way, and found it as he had sayd vnto them.

And they sayd, The Lord hath neede of him.

So they brought him to Iesus, and they cast their garments on the colte, and set Iesus thereon.

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

And when he was nowe come neere to the going downe of the mount of Oliues, the whole multitude of the disciples began to reioyce, and to prayse God with a loude voyce, for all the great workes that they had seene,

Saying, Blessed be the King that commeth in the Name of the Lord: peace in heauen, and glory in the highest places.

Then some of the Pharises of the companie sayd vnto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

But he answered, and sayd vnto them, I tell you, that if these should holde their peace, the stones would crie.

And when he was come neere, he behelde the Citie, and wept for it,
