Luke 19:1-10
21st Century King James Version
19 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
2 And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
3 And he sought to see Jesus, who He was, but could not for the press of the crowd, because he was short in stature.
4 And he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore 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 today 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 had gone to be the guest of a man who was 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 anything from any man by false accusation, I restore to him fourfold.”
9 And Jesus said unto him, “This day is salvation come to this house, in that he also is a son of Abraham.
10 For the Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.”

American Standard Version
19 And he entered and was passing through Jericho. 2 And behold, a man called by name Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the crowd, because he was little of stature. 4 And he ran on 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 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, He is gone in to lodge 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 wrongfully exacted aught of any man, I restore fourfold. 9 And Jesus said unto him, To-day is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost.
