Luke 19:28-48

Luke:19.28 When He had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. Luke:19.29 And it came to pass, when He came near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mountain called Olivet, [that] He sent two of His disciples, Luke:19.30 saying, "Go into the village opposite [you,] where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring [it here.] Luke:19.31 "And if anyone asks you, 'Why are you loosing [it?'] thus you shall say to him, 'Because the Lord has need of it.' " Luke:19.32 So those who were sent went their way and found [it] just as He had said to them. Luke:19.33 But as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said to them, "Why are you loosing the colt?" Luke:19.34 And they said, "The Lord has need of him." Luke:19.35 Then they brought him to Jesus. And they threw their own clothes on the colt, and they set Jesus on him. Luke:19.36 And as He went, [many] spread their clothes on the road. Luke:19.37 Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, Luke:19.38 saying: " 'Blessed [is] the King who comes in the name of the LORD!' Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!" Luke:19.39 And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples." Luke:19.40 But He answered and said to them, "I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out." Luke:19.41 Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, Luke:19.42 saying, "If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things [that make] for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. Luke:19.43 "For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, Luke:19.44 "and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation." Luke:19.45 Then He went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, Luke:19.46 saying to them, "It is written, 'My house is a house of prayer,' but you have made it a 'den of thieves.' " Luke:19.47 And He was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people sought to destroy Him, Luke:19.48 and were unable to do anything; for all the people were very attentive to hear Him.

Luke 17:20-37.

Luke 17.20-37 God's Kingdom Some Pharisees asked Jesus when God's kingdom would come. He answered, "God's kingdom isn't something you can see. There is no use saying, 'Look! Here it is' or 'Look! There it is.' God's kingdom is here with you." Jesus said to his disciples: The time will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not. When people say to you, "Look there," or "Look here," don't go looking for him. The day of the Son of Man will be like lightning flashing across the sky. But first he must suffer terribly and be rejected by the people of today. When the Son of Man comes, things will be just as they were when Noah lived. People were eating, drinking, and getting married right up to the day when Noah went into the big boat. Then the flood came and drowned everyone on earth. When Lot lived, people were also eating and drinking. They were buying, s...

Psalm 85 (Good News Translation)   1LORD, you have been merciful to your land; you have made Israel prosperous again. 2You have forgiven your people's sins and pardoned all their wrongs. 3You stopped being angry with them and held back your furious rage. 4Bring us back, O God our savior, and stop being displeased with us! 5Will you be angry with us forever? Will your anger never cease? 6Make us strong again, and we, your people, will praise you. 7Show us your constant love, O LORD, and give us your saving help. 8I am listening to what the LORD God is saying; he promises peace to us, his own people, if we do not go back to our foolish ways. 9Surely he is ready to save those who honor him, and his saving presence will remain in our land. 10Love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will embrace. 11Human loyalty will reach up from the earth, and God's righteousness will look down from heaven. 12The LORD will make us prosperous, and our land will produce rich harv...
