Luke 19:1-7

1 So He entered Jericho and was passing through the town.

2 There was a man there called Zacchaeus, who was the local surveyor of taxes, and was wealthy.

3 He was anxious to see what sort of man Jesus was; but he could not because of the crowd, for he was short in stature.

4 So he ran on in front and climbed up a mulberry tree to see Him; for He was about to pass that way.

5 As soon as Jesus came to the place, He looked up and said to him, "Zacchaeus, come down quickly, for I must stay at your house to-day."

6 So he came down in haste, and welcomed Him joyfully.

7 When they all saw this, they began to complain with indignation. "He has gone in to be the guest of a notorious sinner!" they said.
