2
And there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich.
3
And 2he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small of stature.
4
So he ran on ahead and climbed up into 3a 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 4I must stay at your house today."
6
So he hurried and came down and 5received him joyfully.
7
And when they saw it, they all 6grumbled, "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 7I give to the poor. And if I have 8defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it 9fourfold."
9
And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since 10he also is a son of Abraham.
10For 11the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost."
