He was trying to get a look at Jesus, but being a short man he could not see over the crowd.
So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, because Jesus was going to pass that way.
And when Jesus came to that place, he looked up and said to him,“Zacchaeus, come down quickly, because I must stay at your house today.”
So he came down quickly and welcomed Jesus joyfully.
And when the people saw it, they all complained,“He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.”
But Zacchaeus stopped and said to the Lord,“Look, Lord, half of my possessions I now give to the poor, and if I have cheated anyone of anything, I am paying back four times as much!”
Then Jesus said to him,“Today salvation has come to this household, because he too is a son of Abraham!
