1 And he went into Jericho, and when he was going through it,

2 A man, named Zacchaeus, who was the chief tax-farmer, and a man of wealth,

3 Made an attempt to get a view of Jesus, and was not able to do so, because of the people, for he was a small man.

4 And he went quickly in front of them and got up into a tree to see him, for he was going that way.

5 And when Jesus came to the place, looking up, he said to him, Zacchaeus, be quick and come down, for I am coming to your house today.

6 And he came down quickly, and took him into his house with joy.

7 And when they saw it, they were all angry, saying, He has gone into the house of a sinner.

8 And Zacchaeus, waiting before him, said to the Lord, See, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from anyone wrongly, I give him back four times as much.

9 And Jesus said to him, Today salvation has come to this house, for even he is a son of Abraham.

10 For the Son of man came to make search for those who are wandering from the way, and to be their Saviour.

1 A všed Ježíš, bral se přes Jericho.

2 A aj, muž, jménem Zacheus, a ten byl hejtman nad celnými, a byl bohatý.

3 I žádostiv byl viděti Ježíše, kdo by byl; a nemohl pro zástup, nebo postavy malé byl.

4 A předběh napřed, vstoupil na strom planého fíku, aby jej viděl; neb tudy měl jíti.

5 A když přišel k tomu místu, pohleděv zhůru Ježíš, uzřel jej, i řekl jemu: Zachee, spěšně sstup dolů, nebo dnes v domu tvém musím zůstati.

6 I sstoupil rychle, a přijal jej radostně.

7 A viděvše to všickni, reptali, řkouce: K člověku hříšnému se obrátil.

8 Stoje pak Zacheus, řekl ku Pánu: Aj, polovici statku svého, Pane, dávám chudým, a oklamal-li jsem v čem koho, navracuji to čtvernásob.

9 I dí jemu Ježíš: Dnes spasení stalo se domu tomuto, protože i on jest syn Abrahamův.

10 Nebo přišel Syn člověka, aby hledal a spasil, což bylo zahynulo.
