2
A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy.
3 Zaccheus was trying to see who Jesus was, and was unable because of the crowd, for he was small in stature.
3
He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd.
4 So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree in order to see Him, for He was about to pass through that way.
4
So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.

When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.”
6 And he hurried and came down and received Him gladly.

7 When they saw it, they all began to grumble, saying, "He has gone to be the guest of a man who is a sinner."
7
All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”
8 Zaccheus stopped and said to the Lord , "Behold, Lord , half of my possessions I will give to the poor, and if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I will give back four times as much."
8
But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”
9 And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he, too, is a son of Abraham.
