Jesus is coming through Jericho and the whole town's out on the street. Chief tax collector, rich, and short, so I can't see a thing over the crowd. So I've run on ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig.

Short. Rich. Up a tree.
Chief tax collector in Jericho. Very rich, and everyone knows how I got that way. Not very tall, so when Jesus came through town I climbed a sycamore-fig to see him. He stopped under my tree and said my name.

He stopped right under the tree. Looked up and called me by name. Zacchaeus, hurry down, I have to stay at your house today. I hurried down. So glad to have him.
I heard you. Here's what I told him: half of everything I own is going to the poor. And if I've cheated anyone out of anything, I'll pay them back four times over.
Of all the houses in Jericho. Him? He's gone to be the guest of a sinner. We were all saying it.
