1

And [Jesus] entered and passed through Jericho.

2

And, behold, [there was] a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

3

And he sought to see Jesus who he was and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.

4

And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that [way].

5

And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down for to day I must abide at thy house.

6

And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.

7

And when they saw [it], they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

8

And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore [him] fourfold.

9

And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

10

For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
