3 And he sought to asee who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature.
4 So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was going to pass that way.
5 And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up1 and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for today I must stay at your house.”
6 So he1 made haste and came down, and received Him joyfully.
7 But when they saw it, they all1 complained, saying, a“He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner.”
8 Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the apoor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by bfalse accusation, cI restore fourfold.”
