20161115 Gospel Lk 19:1-10


Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through it. A man named Zaccheus lived there. He was a tax collector and a wealthy man. He wanted to see what Jesus was like, but he was a short man and could not see him because of the crowd. So he ran ahead and climbed up a sycamore tree. From there he would be able to see Jesus, who was going to pass that way. When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zaccheus, come down quickly, for I must stay at your house today.” So Zaccheus climbed down and received him joyfully.

All the people who saw it began to grumble, and said, “He has gone as a guest to the house of a sinner.” But Zaccheus spoke to Jesus, “Half of what I own, Lord, I will give to the poor, and if I have cheated anyone, I will pay him back four times as much.” Looking at him Jesus said, “Salvation has come to this house today, for he is also a true son of Abraham. The Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”

Pamalandong:

Uno kaha’y imo himoon kon pananglitan manoktok si Jesus sa imo pultahan, pagkatapos, molaong Sija na: “Anhi anay ako sa ijo bayay maghuya kuman!” na duro an nakadungog sa Ija pag-asoy.

Duha seguro an dayaganan nan ini na sitwasyon: kon dili kon excited ‘kaw, maembaraso ‘kaw!

Ma-excited ‘kaw kay hamimis na si Lord ad’on magduyom sa ijo bayay! Ma-embaraso o masipog ‘kaw kay nahibayo man an tanan tawo na makasasaya ‘kaw!

Dinhi sa Ebanghelyo, uno man na an makasasaya na chief tax collector man gajud an tag-single out ni Jesus na hatagan Nija nan onor na gamiton an ija panimayay para pahuwajan?

Kay kinahanglan man ni Zacchaeus an mapasayluon na gugma ni Lord na nagsresulta nan ija pagdesidir na ihatag nija an katunga nan ija kabtangan sa mga pobre sanan an katunga ‘sab, ipambajad sa ija mga inka-limbungan.
