1 And having entered, He passed through Jericho.2 And behold, there[ was] a man named Zacchaeus, and he was a chief tax collector, and this [man] was rich.3 And he was trying to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature.4 And running up ahead in front, he went up into a sycamore tree so that he might see Him, because He was about to pass by that way.5 And when He came upon that place, Jesus looked up and saw him, and said to him, "Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay in your house."6 So he hurried and came down, and received Him, rejoicing.7 But when they saw it, they all were complaining, saying, "He has gone to be a guest with a sinful man."8 Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, "Look, Lord, I give half of my possessions to the poor; and if I have extorted anything from anyone, I restore fourfold."9 And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham;10 for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."
