Now he was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>And he was seeking to see Jesus, Who He was; but he was not able because of the multitude, for he was a man of small stature. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>But after running ahead, in front of the multitude, he climbed up into a sycamore tree so that he might see Him; for He was about to pass that way. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>And when He came to the place, Jesus looked up and saw him, and said to him, "Zaccheus, make haste to come down, for today it is necessary for Me to stay at your house." <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>And he came down in haste and received Him joyfully. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>But after seeing this, everyone began to criticize, saying, "He has gone in to lodge with a sinful man." <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>Then Zaccheus stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, the half of my possessions, Lord, I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I return fourfold." <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>And Jesus said to him, "Today, salvation has come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>For the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which is lost."</p> <a name="11" id="11"></a><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>Now as they were listening to these things, He went on to speak a parable, because He was near Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear immediately. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>Therefore, He said, "A certain nobleman set out to a distant country to receive a kingdom for himself, and to return. <span class="reftext"><a href="/luke/19-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>And after calling ten of his servants, he gave to them ten pounds, and said to them, 'Trade until I come back.
