E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'lua5.3'

Question

I have a new Debian Jessie machine, but when I try to install Lua (5.3) through apt I get this error:

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree

Reading stateinformation... Done

E: Unable to locate package lua5.3

E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'lua5.3'

I've been looking through Mr. Google to find out some information, but couldn't find anything
