Whiston(i)
14 But the 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 as he returned, having received the kingdom, he commanded his servants to be called, to whom he had given the money, that he might know what every man had gained by trading.
16 Now the first came saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 And he said unto him, Well done, thou good servant; because thou hast been faithful in a very little, Have thou authority over ten cities.
18 Another came and said, Lord, thy pound hath made five pounds.
19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
20 And another came saying, Lord, behold, thy pound, which I have kept laid up in an handkerchief.
21 For I feared thee; For thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou laidst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
22 But he said unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man; I take up that I laid not down, and I reap 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 But he said unto them that stood by, Take [it] from him and carry [it] to him that hath ten pounds.
25 --
26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath, is added! and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
27 But these mine enemies which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me. And cast ye the unprofitable servant unto the outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
28 And when he had thus spoken, he went, ascending 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], and entring ye shall find a colt, whereon never man had sat: and loosing him, bring [him] hither,
31 And if any man ask you, thus shall ye say, Because the Lord hath need of him.
32 And they that were sent, went away.
33 --
34 They answered, that The Lord had need of him.
35 And they brought the colt to Jesus: and cast their garments upon him, and they set Jesus [upon him.]
36 And as they went, they spread their clothes.
37 And when they were come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoyce and praise God, for all the things that they had seen done.
38 Saying, Blessed [be] he that cometh in the name of the Lord: Blessed be the King. Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 But some of the Pharisees from among the multitude, said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40 But he answered and said unto them, I say unto you, that if these should hold their peace, the stones would cry out.
41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
42 Saying, If thou also hadst known in this day, what things concern thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
43 For the days will come upon thee, that thine enemies will cast a trench, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
44 And will level thee even with the ground, and thy children; and they will not leave stone upon stone in this whole [city,] because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
