Luke 19:1-4

Contemporary English Version

Zacchaeus

19 Jesus was going through Jericho, ² where a man named Zacchaeus lived. He was in charge of collecting taxes^[a] and was very rich. ^3-4 Jesus was heading his way, and Zacchaeus wanted to see what he was like. But Zacchaeus was a short man and could not see over the crowd. So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree.
