Zacheus entertains Christ. The parable of the pounds. Christ rides upon an ass and weeps over Jerusalem.

1And entering he walked through Jericho.Ed entrato in Gerico passava pel mezzo della città.AND entring in, he vvalked through Iericho.Et ingressus perambulabat Jericho. 2And behold, there was a man named Zacheus, who was the chief of the publicans: and he was rich.Quand'ecco un uomo per nome Zaccheo: il quale era capo de' pubblicani, ed ei pur facoltoso.And behold a man named Zachaeus: and this vvas a Prince of the Publicans, and he riche.Et ecce vir nomine Zachæus: et hic princeps erat publicanorum, et ipse dives: 3And he sought to see Jesus who he was: and he could not for the crowd, because he was low of stature.E bramava di conoscer di vista Gesù: e non poteva a causa della folla, perché era piccolo di statura.And he sought to see IESVS vvhat he vvas, and he could not for the multitude, because he vvas litle of stature.et quærebat videre Jesum, quis esset: et non poterat præ turba, quia statura pusillus erat. 4And running before, he climbed up into a sycamore tree, that he might see him: for he was to pass that way.E porse innanzi, e sali sopra una pianta di sicomoro a fine di vederlo: perché era per passare da quella parte.And running before, he vvent vp into a sycomore tree that he might see him: because he vvas to passe by it.Et præcurrens ascendit in arborem sycomorum ut videret eum: quia inde erat transiturus. 5And when Jesus was come to the place, looking up, he saw him and said to him: Zacheus, make haste and come down: for this day I must abide in thy house.E arrivato Gesù a quel luogo, alzati gli occhi lo vide, e gli disse: Zaccheo, presto cala giù: perché fa d'uopo, ch'io alberghi quest'oggi in casa tua.And vvhen he vvas come to the place, IESVS looking vp, savv him, and said to him, Zachaeus, come dovvne in hast: because this day I must abide in thy house.Et cum venisset ad locum, suspiciens Jesus vidit illum, et dixit ad eum: Zachæe, festinans descende: quia hodie in domo tua oportet me manere. 6And he made haste and came down and received him with joy.E quegli frettolosamente discese, e lo accolse allegramente.And he in hast came dovvne, and receiued him reioycing.Et festinans descendit, et excepit illum gaudens. 7And when all saw it, they murmured, saying, that he was gone to be a guest with a man that was a sinner.Veduto ciò, tutti mormoravano, dicendo, che era andato a posare in casa di un peccatore.And vvhen al savv it, they murmured, saying that he turned in, to a man that vvas a sinner.Et cum viderent omnes, murmurabant, dicentes quod ad hominem peccatorem divertisset.

8But Zacheus standing, said to the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have wronged any man of any thing, I restore him fourfold.Ma Zaccheo si presentò, e disse al Signore: Ecco che io, o Signore, do la metà de' miei beni a poveri: e se ad alcuno ho tolto qualche cosa, gli rendo il quadruplo.But Zachaeus standing, said to our Lord, Behold the halfe of my goods, Lord, I giue to the poore: and if I haue defrauded any man of any thing, I restore fourefold.Stans autem Zachæus, dixit ad Dominum: Ecce dimidium bonorum meorum, Domine, do pauperibus: et si quid aliquem defraudavi, reddo quadruplum. 9Jesus said to him: This day is salvation come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.E Gesù gli disse: Oggi questa casa ha ottenuto salute: perché anche questo è figliuolo di Abramo.IESVS said to him, That this day saluation is made to this house: because that he also is the sonne of Abraham.Ait Jesus ad eum: Quia hodie salus domui huic facta est: eo quod et ipse filius sit Abrahæ. 10For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.Imperocché è venuto il figliuolo dell'uomo a cercare, e salvare que', che si erano perduti.For the Sonne of man is come to seeke and to saue that vvhich vvas lost.Venit enim Filius hominis quærere, et salvum facere quod perierat. 11As they were hearing these things, he added and spoke a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately be manifested.E stando quegli ad ascoltare tali cose, continuò, e disse una parabola sopra l'esser lui vicino a Gerusalemme: e sul credere, che essi facevano, che presto dovesse manifestarsi il regno di Dio.They hearing these things, he added and spake a parable, for that he was nigh to Hierusalem, and because they thought that forthvvith the kingdom of God should be manifested.Hæc illis audientibus adjiciens, dixit parabolam, eo quod esset prope Jerusalem: et quia existimarent quod confestim regnum Dei manifestaretur. 12He said therefore: a certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.Disse adunque: Un nobil uomo andò in lontano paese a prender possesso di un regno per poi ritornare.He said therfore, A certaine noble man vvent into a farre countrie to take to him self a kingdom, and to returne.Dixit ergo: Homo quidam nobilis abiit in regionem longinquam accipere sibi regnum, et reverti. 13And calling his ten servants, he gave them ten pounds and said to them: Trade till I come.E chiamati a se dieci de' suoi servidori, diede loro dieci mine, e disse loro: Impiegatele sino al mio ritorno.And calling his ten seruants, he gaue them ten poundes, and said to them, Occupie til I come.Vocatis autem decem servis suis, dedit eis decem mnas, et ait ad illos: Negotiamini dum venio.

14But his citizens hated him and they sent an embassage after him, saying: We will not have this man to reign over us.Ma i suoi concittadini gli volevano male: e gli spediron dietro ambasciadori, dicendo: Non vogliamo costui per nostro re.And his citizens hated him: and they sent a legacie after him, saying, Vve vvil not haue this man reigne ouer vs.Cives autem ejus oderant eum: et miserunt legationem post illum, dicentes: Nolumus hunc regnare super nos. 15And it came to pass that he returned, having received the kingdom: and he commanded his servants to be called, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading,E avvenne, che tornato egli dopo aver preso possesso del regno fece chiamare a sei servidori, ai quali aveva dato il denaro per sapere, che guadagno avesse fatto ciascuno.And it came to passe after he returned, hauing receiued his kingdom: and he commaunded his seruants to be called, to vvhom he gaue the money: that he might knovv how much euery mā had gained by occupying.Et factum est ut rediret accepto regno: et jussit vocari servos, quibus dedit pecuniam, ut sciret quantum quisque negotiatus esset. 16And the first came saying: Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.E venne il primo, e disse: Signore, la tua mina ne ha fruttate altre dieci.And the first came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gotten ten poundes.Venit autem primus dicens: Domine, mna tua decem mnas acquisivit. 17And he said to him: Well done, thou good servant, because thou hast been faithful in a little, thou shalt have power over ten cities.Ed ei gli disse: Buon per te, servitore fedele, perché se' stato fedele nel poco, sarai signore di dieci città.And he said to him, Vvel fare thee good seruant, because thou hast been faithful in a litle, thou shalt haue povver ouer ten cities.Et ait illi: Euge bone serve, quia in modico fuisti fidelis, eris potestatem habens super decem civitates. 18And the second came, saying: Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.E venne il secondo, e disse: Signore, la tua mina ne ha fruttate cinque.And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath made fiue poundes.Et alter venit, dicens: Domine, mna tua fecit quinque mnas. 19And he said to him: Be thou also over five cities.E (il padrone) disse anche a questo: Tu pure sarai signore di cinque città.And he said to him, And be thou ouer fiue cities.Et huic ait: Et tu esto super quinque civitates. 20And another came, saying: Lord, behold here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin.E venne un altro, e disse: Signore, eccoti la tua mina, che ho tenuta rivolta in un fazzoletto:And an other came, saying, Lord, loe here thy pound, vvhich I haue had laid vp in a napkin.Et alter venit, dicens: Domine, ecce mna tua, quam habui repositam in sudario:

21For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up what thou didst not lay down: and thou reapest that which thou didst not sow.Imperocché ho avuto apprensione di te, perché se' di naturale austero: togli quel, che non hai depositato, e mieti quel, che non hai seminato.for I feared thee, because thou art an austêre man: thou takest vp that thou didst not set dovvne, and thou reapest that vvhich thou didst not sovv.timui enim te, quia homo austerus es: tollis quod non posuisti, et metis quod non seminasti. 22He saith to him: Out of thy own mouth I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up what I laid not down and reaping that which I did not sow.Ma (il padrone) gli disse: Sa la tua propria confessione ti condanno, servo cattivo: sapevi, che io sono un uomo austero, che tolgo quel, che non ho depositato, e mieto quel, che non ho seminato:He saith to him, By thine ovvne mouth I iudge thee, naughtie seruant. Thou didst knovv that I am an austere man, taking vp that I set not dovvne, and reaping that vvhich I sovved not:Dicit ei: De ore tuo te judico, serve nequam. Sciebas quod ego homo austerus sum, tollens quod non posui, et metens quod non seminavi: 23And why then didst thou not give my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have exacted it with usury?E Perché non hai impiegato il mio denaro sopra una banca, che io al mio ritorno lo averi ritirato co' suoi frutti?and vvhy didst thou not giue my money to the banke, and I comming might certes vvith vsurie haue exacted it?et quare non dedisti pecuniam meam ad mensam, ut ego veniens cum usuris utique exegissem illam ? 24And he said to them that stood by: Take the pound away from him and give it to him that hath ten pounds.E disse agli astanti: Toglietegli la mina, e datela a colui, che ne ha dieci.And he said to them that stoode by, Take the pound avvay from him, and giue it to him that hath the ten poundes.Et astantibus dixit: Auferte ab illo mnam, et date illi qui decem mnas habet. 25And they said to him: Lord, he hath ten pounds.Signore, risposero, egli la dieci mine.And they said to him, Lord, he hath ten poundes.Et dixerunt ei: Domine, habet decem mnas. 26But I say to you that to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: and from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken from him.E io vi dico, che sarà dato a chi ha, e sarà nell'abbondanza: a chi poi non ha, sarà levato anche quello che ha.But I say to you, that to euery one that hath shal be giuen: and from him that hath not, that also vvhich he hath shal be taken from him.Dico autem vobis, quia omni habenti dabitur, et abundabit: ab eo autem qui non habet, et quod habet auferetur ab eo.

27But as for those my enemies, who would not have me reign over them, bring them hither and kill them before me.Quanto poi a que' miei nemici, i quali non mi hanno volato per loro re, conduceteli qui, e uccidetegli alla mia presenza.But as for those mine enemies that vvould not haue me reigne ouer them, bring them hither: and kil them before me.Verumtamen inimicos meos illos, qui noluerunt me regnare super se, adducite huc: et interficite ante me. 28And having said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.E dette tali cose, camminava innanzi agli altri verso Gerusalemme.And hauing said these things, he vvent before ascending to Hierusalem.Et his dictis, præcedebat ascendens Jerosolymam. 29And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethania, unto the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,E arrivato che fu vicino a Betfage, e a Betania, al monte detto degli ulivi, mandò due de' suoi discepoli,And it came to passe vvhen he vvas come nigh to Bethphagé and Bethania vnto the mount called Oliuet, he sent tvvo of his Disciples,Et factum est, cum appropinquasset ad Bethphage et Bethaniam, ad montem qui vocatur Oliveti, misit duos discipulos suos, 30Saying: Go into the town which is over against you, at your entering into which you shall find the colt of an ass tied, on which no man ever hath sitten: loose him and bring him hither.E disse loro: Andate nel villaggio, che sta dirimpetto: e in entrando troverete legato un asinello, che non è stato mai cavalcato da alcuno: scioglietelo, e menatemelo.saying, Goe into the tovvne vvhich is ouer against, into the vvhich as you enter, you shal finde the colt of an asse tied, on vvhich no man euer hath sitten: loose him, and bring him.dicens: Ite in castellum quod contra est: in quod introëuntes, invenietis pullum asinæ alligatum, cui nemo umquam hominum sedit: solvite illum, et adducite. 31And if any man shall ask you: Why do you loose him? You shall say thus unto him: Because the Lord hath need of his service.E se alcuno vi domanderà il perché lo sciogliete, gli direte: Perché il Signore ne ha bisogno.And if any man aske you, Vvhy loose you him? You shal say thus to him, because our Lord needeth his seruice.Et si quis vos interrogaverit: Quare solvitis ? sic dicetis ei: Quia Dominus operam ejus desiderat. 32And they that were sent went their way and found the colt standing, as he had said unto them.E quelli, che erano stati spediti, andarono, e trovarono l'asinello starsi nel modo, che egli aveva loro predetto.And they that vvere sent, vvent their vvaies, and found as he said to them, the colt standing.Abierunt autem qui missi erant: et invenerunt, sicut dixit illis, stantem pullum.

33And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said to them: Why loose you the colt?E mentre scioglievano l'asinello, i padroni disser loro: Perché lo sciogliete voi?And vvhen they loosed the colt, the ovvners thereof said to them, Vvhy loose you the colt?Solventibus autem illis pullum, dixerunt domini ejus ad illos: Quid solvitis pullum ? 34But they said: Because the Lord hath need of him.Ed essi lor dissero: Perché il Signore ne ha bisogno.But they said, because our Lord hath neede of him.At illi dixerunt: Quia Dominus eum necessarium habet. 35And they brought him to Jesus. And casting their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.E lo menarono a Gesù. E distesi i loro mantelli sopra l'asinello, vi poser sopra Gesù.And they brought him to IESVS. And casting their garments vpon the colt, they set IESVS therevpon.Et duxerunt illum ad Jesum. Et jacentes vestimenta sua supra pullum, imposuerunt Jesum. 36And as he went, they spread their clothes underneath in the way.E seguitando egli il suo viaggio, la gente gli distendeva sotto le sue vesti per la strada.And as he vvent, they spred their garments vnderneath in the vvay.Eunte autem illo, substernebant vestimenta sua in via: 37And when he was now coming near the descent of Mount Olivet, the whole multitude of his disciples began with joy to praise God with a loud voice, for all the mighty works they had seen,Quando poi fu vicino alla scesa del monte Oliveto, tutta la turba de' discepoli cominciò lietamente a lodare Dio ad alta voce per tutti i prodigj, che veduti avevano,And vvhen he approched novv to the descent of mount-Oliuet, al the multitudes of them that descended', began vvith ioy to praise God vvith a loude voice, for al the miracles that they had seen,et cum appropinquaret jam ad descensum montis Oliveti, cœperunt omnes turbæ discipulorum gaudentes laudare Deum voce magna super omnibus, quas viderant, virtutibus, 38Saying: Blessed be the king who cometh in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory on high!Dicendo: Benedetto il Re, che viene nel nome del Signore, pace in cielo, e gloria nel più alto de' cieli.saying, Blessed is he that commeth king in the name of our Lord, peace in heauen, and glorie on high.dicentes: Benedictus, qui venit rex in nomine Domini: pax in cælo, et gloria in excelsis. 39And some of the Pharisees, from amongst the multitude, said to him: Master, rebuke thy disciples.E alcuni de' Farisei mescolati col popolo gli dissero: Maestro, sgrida i tuoi discepoli.And certaine Pharisees of the multitudes said to him, Maister, rebuke thy disciples.Et quidam pharisæorum de turbis dixerunt ad illum: Magister, increpa discipulos tuos.

40To whom he said: I say to you that if these shall hold their peace, the stones will cry out.Ma egli rispose loro: Vi dico, che se questi taceranno, grideranno le pietre.To vvhom he said, I say to you, That if these hold their peace, the stones shal crie.Quibus ipse ait: Dico vobis, quia si hi tacuerint, lapides clamabunt. 41And when he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it, saying:E avvicinandosi alla città, rimirandola pianse sopra di lei, e disse:And as he drevv neere, seeing the citie, he vvept vpon it, saying,Et ut appropinquavit, videns civitatem flevit super illam, dicens: 42If thou also hadst known, and that in this thy day, the things that are to thy peace: but now they are hidden from thy eyes.O se conoscessi anche tu, e in questo giorno quello, che importa al tuo bene: ma ora questo è a' tuoi occhi celato.Because if thou also hadst knovven, and that in this thy day, the things that pertaine to thy peace: but novv they are hid from thine eies.Quia si cognovisses et tu, et quidem in hac die tua, quæ ad pacem tibi: nunc autem abscondita sunt ab oculis tuis. 43For the days shall come upon thee: and thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee and compass thee round and straiten thee on every side,Conciossiachè verrà per te il tempo: quando i tuoi nemici ti circonderanno di trinciera: e ti serreranno all'intorno: e ti stringeranno per ogni parte:For the daies shal come vpon thee: and thy enemies shal compasse thee vvith a trenche, and inclose thee about, and straiten thee on euery side,Quia venient dies in te: et circumdabunt te inimici tui vallo, et circumdabunt te: et coangustabunt te undique: 44And beat thee flat to the ground, and thy children who are in thee. And they shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone: because thou hast not known the time of thy visitation.E cacceranno per terra te, e i tuoi figliuoli con te, e non lasceranno in te pietra sopra pietra; perché non hai conosciuto il tempo della visita a te fatta.and beate thee flat to the ground, and thy children that are in thee, and they shal not leaue in thee a stone vpon a stone: because thou hast not knovven the time of thy visitation.et ad terram prosternent te, et filios tuos, qui in te sunt, et non relinquent in te lapidem super lapidem: eo quod non cognoveris tempus visitationis tuæ. 45And entering into the temple, he began to cast out them that sold therein and them that bought.Ed entrato nel tempio cominciò a scacciare coloro, che in esso vendevano, e comperavano,And entring into the temple, he began to cast out the sellers therein and the biers,Et ingressus in templum, cœpit ejicere vendentes in illo, et ementes,

46Saying to them: It is written: My house is the house of prayer. But you have made it a den of thieves.Dicendo loro: Sta scritto; La casa mia è casa di orazione; e voi l'avete cangiata in ispelonca di ladri.saying to them, It is vvritten, That my house is the house of praier. But you haue made it a denne of theeues.dicens illis: Scriptum est: Quia domus mea domus orationis est: vos autem fecistis illam speluncam latronum. 47And he was teaching daily in the temple. And the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people sought to destroy him.E insegnava ogni giorno nel tempio. Ma i principi de' sacerdoti, e gli Scribi, e i caporioni del popolo cercavano di levarlo dal mondo:And he vvas teaching daily in the temple. And the cheefe Priests and the Scribes and the Princes of the people sought to destroy him:Et erat docens quotidie in templo. Principes autem sacerdotum, et scribæ, et princeps plebis quærebant illum perdere: 48And they found not what to do to him: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.Né sapevan, che farsi di lui. Conciossiaché tutto il popolo stava a bocca aperta ad udirlo.and they found not vvhat to doe to him. For al the people vvas suspense, hearing him.et non inveniebant quid facerent illi. Omnis enim populus suspensus erat, audiens illum.
