Luke 19:2

Verse 2 of 48. The 19th of 24 chapters in Luke, in The Gospels.

1He entered and was passing through Jericho.

2There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.

3He was trying to see who Jesus was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short.

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

5When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.”

6He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully.
