[영어 성경] Luke chapter 19

Lk. 19:1 Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.

Lk. 19:2 A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief

tax collector and was wealthy.

Lk. 19:3 He wanted to see who Jesus was, but being a short man he

could not, because of the crowd.

Lk. 19:4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him,

since Jesus was coming that way.

Lk. 19:5 When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him,

“Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your

house today.”

Lk. 19:6 So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.

Lk. 19:7 All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to

be the guest of a `sinner’.”

Lk. 19:8 But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord!

Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and

if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back

four times the amount.”

Lk. 19:9 Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house,

because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.

Lk. 19:10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.”

Lk. 19:11 While they were listening to this, he went on to tell them a

parable, because he was near Jerusalem and the people

thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at

once.

Lk. 19:12 He said: “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to

have himself appointed king and then to return.

Lk. 19:13 So he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. [A

mina was about three months’ wages.] `Put this money to

work,’ he said, `until I come back.’

Lk. 19:14 “But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to

say, `We don’t want this man to be our king.’

Lk. 19:15 “He was made king, however, and returned home. Then he

sent for the servants to whom he had given the money, in

order to find out what they had gained with it.

Lk. 19:16 “The first one came and said, `Sir, your mina has earned ten

more.’

Lk. 19:17 “`Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. `Because

you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge

of ten cities.’

Lk. 19:18 “The second came and said, `Sir, your mina has earned five

more.’

Lk. 19:19 “His master answered, `You take charge of five cities.’

Lk. 19:20 “Then another servant came and said, `Sir, here is your mina;

I have kept it laid away in a piece of cloth.

Lk. 19:21 I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take

out what you did not put in and reap what you did not sow.’

Lk. 19:22 “His master replied, `I will judge you by your own words,

you wicked servant! You knew, did you, that I am a hard

208

man, taking out what I did not put in, and reaping what I did

not sow?

Lk. 19:23 Why then didn’t you put my money on deposit, so that when

I came back, I could have collected it with interest?’

Lk. 19:24 “Then he said to those standing by, `Take his mina away from

him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’

Lk. 19:25 “`Sir,’ they said, `he already has ten!’

Lk. 19:26 “He replied, `I tell you that to everyone who has, more will

be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what he

has will be taken away.

Lk. 19:27 But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be a king

over them — bring them here and kill them in front of me.’“

Lk. 19:28 After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to

Jerusalem.

Lk. 19:29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany at the hill called

the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, saying to

them,

Lk. 19:30 “Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will

find a colt tied there, which no-one has ever ridden. Untie it

and bring it here.

Lk. 19:31 If anyone asks you, `Why are you untying it?’ tell him, `The

Lord needs it.’“

Lk. 19:32 Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had

told them.

Lk. 19:33 As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why

are you untying the colt?”

Lk. 19:34 They replied, “The Lord needs it.”

Lk. 19:35 They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and

put Jesus on it.

Lk. 19:36 As he went along, people spread their cloaks on the road.

209

Lk. 19:37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the

Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully

to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had

seen:

Lk. 19:38 “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!”

[Psalm 118:26] “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

Lk. 19:39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher,

rebuke your disciples!”

Lk. 19:40 “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry

out.”

Lk. 19:41 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it

Lk. 19:42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what

would bring you peace — but now it is hidden from your

eyes.

Lk. 19:43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build

an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in

on every side.

Lk. 19:44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within

your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because

you did not recognise the time of God’s coming to you.”

Lk. 19:45 Then he entered the temple area and began driving out those

who were selling.

Lk. 19:46 “It is written,” he said to them, “`My house will be a house of

prayer’; [Isaiah 56:7] but you have made it `a den of

robbers’.” [Jer. 7:11]

Lk. 19:47 Every day he was teaching at the temple. But the chief

priests, the teachers of the law and the leaders among the

people were trying to kill him.

Lk. 19:48 Yet they could not find any way to do it, because all the

people hung on his words.
