Luke 19: 1 - 10
|
| 1 | He entered Jericho and was passing through. |
| 2 | And there was a man named Zacchae'us; he was a chief tax collector, and rich. |
| 3 | And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not, on account of the crowd, because he was small of stature. |
| 4 | So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way. |
| 5 | And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchae'us, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today." |
| 6 | So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully. |
| 7 | And when they saw it they all murmured, "He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner." |
| 8 | And Zacchae'us stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold." |
| 9 | And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. |
| 10 | For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost." |
