Luke 19:1-10


Jesus and Zacchaeus

aHe entered Jericho and was passing through.
2 And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. 3 And ahe was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature. 4 So he ran on ahead and climbed up into aa sycamore tree to see him, for he was about to pass that way. 5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for aI must stay at your house today.” 6 So he hurried and came down and areceived him joyfully. 7 And when they saw it, they all agrumbled, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” 8 And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods aI give to the poor. And if I have bdefrauded anyone of anything, I restore it cfourfold.” 9 And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since ahe also is a son of Abraham. 10 For athe Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
