Mace(i)
2 one Zaccheus, a rich man, and collector-general of the customs,
3 was very desirous to see the person of Jesus, but could not for the crowd, he being of a low stature.
4 so he ran before, and climb'd up a mulberry-tree to view him; for he was to pass that way.
5 as soon as Jesus came at the place, he look'd up, and seeing him, Zaccheus, said he, make haste down; for I intend to dine at your house to-day.
6 so down he came in great haste, and gave Jesus a joyful reception.
7 upon seeing this, they all murmur'd, saying, he is going to be treated by a dissolute person.
8 but Zaccheus address'd himself to Jesus, and said, Lord, half my estate I give to the poor; and if I have wrong'd any man, I will give him four times the value.
9 then said Jesus, speaking of him, this day is salvation come to this family, since he is now become a true son of Abraham.
10 for the son of man is come to seek, and to save that which was lost.
