1 Jesus went on into Jericho and was passing through.
2 There was a chief tax collector there named Zacchaeus, who was rich.
3 He was trying to see who Jesus was, but he was a little man and could not see Jesus because of the crowd.
4 So he ran ahead of the crowd and climbed a sycomore tree to see Jesus, who was going to pass that way.
5 When Jesus came to that place, he looked up and said to Zacchaeus, “Hurry down, Zacchaeus, because I must stay in your house today.”
