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.

1 And having entered, he was passing through Jericho,

2 and lo, a man, by name called Zaccheus, and he was a chief tax-gatherer, and he was rich,

3 and he was seeking to see Jesus, who he is, and was not able for the multitude, because in stature he was small,

4 and having run forward before, he went up on a sycamore, that he may see him, because through that [way] he was about to pass by.

5 And as Jesus came up to the place, having looked up, he saw him, and said unto him, Zaccheus, having hastened, come down, for to-day in thy house it behoveth me to remain;

6 and he having hastened did come down, and did receive him rejoicing;

7 and having seen [it], they were all murmuring, saying -- With a sinful man he went in to lodge!

8 And Zaccheus having stood, said unto the Lord, Lo, the half of my goods, sir, I give to the poor, and if of any one anything I did take by false accusation, I give back fourfold.

9 And Jesus said unto him -- To-day salvation did come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;

10 for the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.
