The story of Zacchaeus
Luke 19:1–10
And having entered, He was passing through Jericho. And, behold, there was a man called by the name of Zacchaeus. And he himself was the collector of internal revenue for the district, having other tax collectors under his supervision. And he himself was wealthy. And he was endeavoring to see who Jesus was. And he was not able to do so because of the crowd, for he was small as to stature. And having run on ahead, he went up a sycamore tree in order that he might see Him, because He was about to pass through that way. And as He came to the place, Jesus having looked up, said to him, Zacchaeus, hurry, come down at once, for today at your home it is a necessity in the nature of the case for me to be a guest. And he came down in a hurry and welcomed Him as his guest, rejoicing. And having seen this, they all went to grumbling in undertone mutterings with one another, discontentedly complaining, saying that He had gone in to be the house-guest of a man who was a notorious sinner. And Zacchaeus, having come to a standstill, said to the Lord, Behold, half of my possessions, Lord, I now give at once to the poor. And since I have wrongfully exacted something from some individual, I now restore at once four times as much. And Jesus said to him, Today Salvation came to this home, because he himself is also a son of Abraham, for the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which has been lost.
