Luke


                                   Chapter 19


  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.
