Luke 19:1-7

1He entered Jericho and was passing through.

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

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

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

5And 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."

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

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