Luke 19:1-10 - Jesus And Zacchaeus

¹ And he entered and passed through Jericho. ² And behold, there was a man by name called Zacchaeus, and he was chief tax-gatherer, and he was rich. ³ And he sought to see Jesus who he was: and he could not for the crowd, because he was little in stature. ⁴ And running on before, he got up into a sycamore that he might see him, for he was going to pass that way. ⁵ And when he came up to the place, Jesus looked up and saw him, and said to him, Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for to-day I must remain in thy house.

⁶ And he made haste and came down, and received him with joy. ⁷ And all murmured when they saw it, saying, He has turned in to lodge with a sinful man.

⁸ But Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I return him fourfold.

⁹ And Jesus said to him, To-day salvation is come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham; ¹⁰ for the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which is lost.
