Luke 19: He entered Jericho
and was passing through it. 2A man
was there named Zacchaeus; he was
a chief tax collector and was rich. 3He
was trying to see who Jesus was, but
on account of the crowd he could not,
because he was short in stature. 4So
he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore
tree to see him, because he was
going to pass that way.5When Jesus
came to the place, he looked up and
said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down; for I must
stay at your house today.”6So he hurried down and was
happy to welcome him. 7All who saw it began to grumble
and said, “He has gone to be the guest of one who
is a sinner.” 8Zacchaeus stood there and said to
the Lord, “Look, half of my possessions, Lord, I will
give to the poor; and if I have defrauded anyone of
anything, I will pay back four times as much.” 9Then
Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this
house, because he too is a son of Abraham. 10For the
Son of Man came to seek out and to save the lost.”
