Luke 19:1-10

English Standard Version ESV

1 He entered Jericho and was passing through.

2 And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich.

3 And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature.

4 So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was about to pass that way.

5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I must stay at your house today. ”

6 So he hurried and came down and received him joyfully.

7 And when they saw it, they all grumbled, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner. ”

8 And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold. ”

9 And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.

10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost. ”

The Message Bible MSG

1 Then Jesus entered and walked through Jericho.

2 There was a man there, his name Zacchaeus, the head tax man and quite rich.

3 He wanted desperately to see Jesus, but the crowd was in his way - he was a short man and couldn't see over the crowd.

4 So he ran on ahead and climbed up in a sycamore tree so he could see Jesus when he came by.

5 When Jesus got to the tree, he looked up and said, "Zacchaeus, hurry down. Today is my day to be a guest in your home."

6 Zacchaeus scrambled out of the tree, hardly believing his good luck, delighted to take Jesus home with him.

7 Everyone who saw the incident was indignant and grumped, "What business does he have getting cozy with this crook?"

8 Zacchaeus just stood there, a little stunned. He stammered apologetically, "Master, I give away half my income to the poor - and if I'm caught cheating, I pay four times the damages."

9 Jesus said, "Today is salvation day in this home! Here he is: Zacchaeus, son of Abraham!

10 For the Son of Man came to find and restore the lost."
