8And 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.
9And Jesus said to him, Today salvation has come to this house, for even he is a son of Abraham.
10For the Son of man came to make search for those who are wandering from the way, and to be their Saviour.
11And while they were giving ear to these words, he made another story for them, because he was near Jerusalem, and because they were of the opinion that the kingdom of God was coming straight away.
12So he said, A certain man of high birth went into a far-away country to get a kingdom for himself, and to come back.
13And he sent for ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds and said to them, Do business with this till I come.
14But his people had no love for him, and sent representatives after him, saying, We will not have this man for our ruler.
