Luke 19:2-8 ▼

2 and, behold, a man, called by name Zacchaeus, and he was a chief tax-collector; and he was rich.

3 And he was seeking to see Jesus, Who He was; and was not able on account of the multitude; because he was small in stature.

4 And, running before, he climbed up into a sycamore tree, that he might see Him; because He was about to pass along that way.

5 And, when He came to the place, Jesus, looking up, said to him, "Zacchaeus, hastening, come down; for to-day I must abide in your house."

6 And, hastening, he came down, and received Him joyfully.

7 And, seeing it , they were all murmuring, saying, "He went in to be guest with a sinful man!"

8 And, standing, Zacchaeus said to the Lord, "Behold, the half of my goods, Lord, I give to the poor; and, if I wrongfully exacted anything from any one, I restore four-fold."
