Luke 19:2-8 ▼

2 And beholde, there was a man named Zacheus, which was the chiefe among the publicanes, and was riche also :

3 And he sought meanes to see Iesus, what he shoulde be, & coulde not for the preasse, because he was litle of stature.

4 And he ran before, and clymed vp into a wylde fygge tree, to see hym: for he was to come that way.

5 And when Iesus came to the place, he loked vp and sawe hym, and sayde vnto hym: Zache, come downe at once, for to day I must abyde at thy house.

6 And he came downe hastyly, and receaued hym ioyfully.

7 And when they al saw it, they murmured, saying that he was gone in to tary with a man that is a synner.

8 And Zache stoode foorth, and sayde vnto the Lorde: Beholde Lorde, the halfe of my goodes I geue to the poore, and yf I haue taken from any man by forged cauillation, I restore him foure folde.
