Luke:19:1-10
isv@Luke:19:1 @ As Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through it,
isv@Luke:19:2 @ a man named Zacchaeus appeared. He was a leading tax collector, and a rich one at that!
isv@Luke:19:3 @ He was trying to see who Jesus was, but he couldn't do so because of the crowd. (He was short in height.)
isv@Luke:19:4 @ So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus, who was going to pass that way.
isv@Luke:19:5 @ When Jesus came to the tree, he looked up and said,“Zacchaeus, hurry and come down! I must stay at your house today.”
isv@Luke:19:6 @ Zacchaeus came down quickly and was glad to welcome him into his home.
isv@Luke:19:7 @ But all the people who saw this began to complain, saying, “He went to be the guest of a notorious sinner!”
isv@Luke:19:8 @ Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Lord, I'll give half of my possessions to the poor. I'll pay four times as much as I owe if I have cheated anyone in any way.”
isv@Luke:19:9 @ Then Jesus said to him,“Today salvation has come to this home, because he, too, is a descendant of Abraham.
isv@Luke:19:10 @ For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”
